. WOMAN?®S. PAGE.” .. The Diary of a Professional Movie Fan BY GLADYS HALL. Do You Prefer Favorite Star Served Married or Single? Some one asked me the other day whether I and the other fans pre- forred our favorite flimers married or single, and T said that if one would but look about and consider the stars instead of the lilies for a time, one would not ask so foolish a question. ©One takes one's stars as one gets hem .nowadays. They're . “fearful” dependent—they get married when We hear veports of Charlie Chaplin and Pola Negri they feel like it without consulting = or anything. If we dpn't like ‘em vaarried, T don't know what.we're go- g to do about it. There's the Fair- ankses, the Barthelmesses, the Val- ntinos, the Ballins, the Melghans, *he Charles (Mme.

But now—now one’must, perforce, turn to. the Jackie Coogans and. the Mi- riam Battistas However, I _.personally . believe in letting ‘em stay married. After all, they do have.to have some one to mend their socks and pour their cof- fee and watch them shave, if théy are he-stars-and it is pleasant for ! them to have a manly arm to nurtur {and protect . them and . keep thy | wlcked world at bay if they are she- .s(-ru. | And then, too, they are so pellya: nically happy, these muchly-marri stars. They really are happy. The Barthelmesses, for example. It near- 1y broke Dick's heart when he had to g0 to Cuba to do the exterlors for “Java Head" recently, because he 5o hated to leave Mary Hay Barthel- mess. And the Valentinos! They are so much in love that-there's plenty and to spare.. Valentino is..to me, none the less romantic—rather the more so, in fact—because he is’ the hus- band-lover of this supremely beauti- ful woman who is.. professionally known as Nastacha Rambova. They are pals as well as lovers, and it would be sheer selfishness to wish them single just because we fans | would 1tke to. think that some day { one_of ‘us might meet Valentino face |to face and that he would say “Ah, {'tis you, at last Ot course, | pleasant to belleve that he would | have sald that, ‘but there's nothing to prevent our hugging that delusion to our chests, after all. Thomas Meighan, the dear thing, would be lost if it were not for Frances Starr Ring. He llkes the iife domestic. He likes to have Frances “at home.” ' How mean it would be 'to keep Tommie homeless just because' we like to day-dream 2bout a possible romance. . Really, though, I think “us fans" are getting over that earller, silly stage. Once the stars came to me and begged me not to print “any- thing about my marriage,” but they don't do that nowadays. 1 think they don't need to. We'd just as soon know that they are lovers and sweet- if they aren't actually ours? A (Copyright, 1923.) { rid! {can women us I see it.

Many of us have | felt, with Charlle, that the average woman lacks personality. But it that { mersonality to be found “through as- soclation with men” or by “more play"? I doubt it. Personality im- plies a constrictive contact with life somewhere in your program, whether you gain it by botling beets for la- borers or'painting plctures or play- {ing politics. It {mplies . thought— thought that you think for yourself. The American. woman of leisure is | all too often an Intellectual copy cat. | a faddis:, a babbler of meaningless wise words, an emotional blotter for |the outpourings of the newest re- liglous mahatma. The American working woman, whether her work | lies in her home or in an office, s | far moire apt ‘to have true person- ality than her richer sister for whom life’ comes ready made and done up in _glit-paper packages. . For the working woman is-at grips with life and her power, such as it is, bears For the same reason, the average European - woman has ' that elusiye distinetion 'Known . as _personality.

Why Such a Thing as Etiquette? BY JULIA HOYT (Mrs. Lydig Hoyt) Y experience outside of me that most people use the | word “etlquette” .to mean the knowledge cf how to eat, talk and act correctly. But etiquette 4 much more than juet krowing the correct thing to do. It'is good man- ners, it is courtesy and it is an in- stinetive consideration’ for others— three qualitles necessary mot only to suecess in “soclety.” but to suo- cess in all human intercourse. Etiquette really means civilization —life as we lve it today as-dis- tinguished from what it was in the days of the primitives. Just try -to imagine what our life would be llke without etiquette! It would mean, for.instance, more diffi- culty in bourding trolleys and.sub- vaye, in driving automobiles. We'd all still be eating with our hands mly, and goodkess knows what other hings we would be doing! in my opinion etiquette not only makes the wheels of life run more oothly, but also acts 'as a safe- rd- to all human relationship. Nearly all human beings are born with a certain native common sense which usually prompts their action hat s, We Seem to know -instinc- tively that when we are introduced 1o people We must greet them, or ‘that we must treat old people with more consideration. Unfortunately, how- aver, this instinct does not always tell us' what to say .to those we meet or exactly how to show re- spect and courtesy to-our elders, and for that reason we must all learn the fundamental rules and some of the nicetics of etiquette, N epite of the fact that we often “get by” because our friends are enient and are willing: to take the “will for the deed,” thero is always the correct and incorrectsway of do- ing things. And almost invariably that correct way Is the common senge ‘way, too. “I'm pleased to meet you” or “I'm charmed fo meet you” is not the'cor- rect’ thing, to say, and .when a-per- son who knows better hears this, he itnows that although you may look the part you are not really a well bred person. : There s no doubt that the bulk of the responsibility of _etiquette fallg 10 the womdn, fqr. she is' expected not only to know: the .right thing 10 do as hostess and-guest at every. imaginable. function, but to” assume tiie - responsibility of = well bred tutire generation.

BY PHILIP FRANCIS NOWLAN, HILL VARIATIONS—Hull, Hellier, Heller, Hillman, "Helman, RACIAL ORIGIN—English. SOURCE—Locality, also occupation. This is a most widespread group of family names, _the one most fre- quently met with being Hill, with probably Hillman,” Hull, and Hilyer next in order. They are all English names and all trace back to an old Anglo-Saxon word which has come down te us almost unchanged and is in 28 common use today as it was in the reign of ‘Alfred the Great. The word 1s (Just what you think It is) “ni.” But’ sonie_of the family names in this group have not developed from this word In the same manner. The name of Hill, as well as Huil, s in the vast majority of cases a mere contraction of the old descrip- tive phrase “at the hill” or “of the hill,” used to disignate persons Who happened’ to_dwell on or near such eminences. In the varied spellings of the late Norman days the surname occurs as “de la Hill, e 1a_Hull, “de la Helle” and “atte (at the) Hell : With the other variations’another method of development is responsible for .the modern names. This word “afll.” or “hull,” was also used fig- uratively to denote a roof and also for the verb “to roof.” .An abstract from an ancient document reads, “Whyt cley and red for to/make crokices (crocks) and other vessels and barned (burnt). tyy} (tile). to hele houses and churches.” Again, Wickiyffe, in the translation.efs.one Bible passage. says: “The schip (ship) was hilid (hilled or covered) with wavis." X The words “hilyer” and.*hillman” therefore, Were descriptive of occu- pations, which explains - why « these family names in their varied spell- ings are not within the old. records in such forms as “Roger lo Hillyer,” “John “le- Hil- Hilyer, Hellman. e le Helier” and STAR, WASHINGTON back.

Also they like serge. When the nows goes out that the two are to be combined for early spring frocks there should be happiness in the land. It may be that dressmakers found serge the best avallable fabric to offer for the weather that is neither | Rot nor cold. It may be that they realize the public dislikes taffeta, that kasha s too.thick, that velvet| is not suitable for the turn in the| seasons, that crepe de chine needs a | rival. Any one of these reasons may | {impel them to offer serge, but there & suspieion that the fabric s an excellent foundation dinous uses of foulard. Faulard is a name that covers a large varlety of silks and designs this year. It is a casual and car less term. It was brought into be- ing when the ubiquitous vari-colored handkerchiefs rushed into the middle of the fashion arena and won a swift and decisive battle. Some of the things that are called foulard have no actual resemblance to_ths well- known silk of other days. But what's Jn_a mame? The {mportant thing is that the de- signers have gone quite mad over gay color. Oriental patterning and nearly every weave of silk Is subju- | gated to their desire to imprint fig- | ures and rainbow tones where once were plaids and checks. Those who | {thought that the handkerchief tash- fon wus a passing fancy have been proved wrong by its endurance.
