We like beautiful wom- en on the eereen not so much be cause we like to look at them, but because ‘beauty in distress’ has a tremendous emotional appeal.” All of that furnishes support for the statement Stanlaws made to ine several months ago, that “no great actress is a perfect lady.” A perfect lady doesn't show emo. tion. However, it doesn’t follow that & perfect lady is always beautiful. eee ‘The weakness of many filme is that they are constructed for the dis play of a star's beauty, or lavish scenes and settings are used to com- |penante for the star's lack of emo tional talent. Katherine MacDonald proves the | first cane. She is called the “Ameri- can beauty.” Few of her filma offer more than passing entertainment ex- cept to those who have not seen her beautiful face ja previous films. Ap- peal to the eye Is soon antinfied. Marion Davies proves the second point: She may have dramatic tal- ent, but so far she has been given little opportunity to show it because of the lavishness of her productions. Joseph Urban, one of the foremost ncenic artists of the theater, designs | the sets for her pictures. Fantastic interludes break Into the action #o that the spectator imay be impressed with the beauty of the pleture. In the meantime the spectator loses interest in the action of the pleture and the beauty of the star. eee ‘The cnse might be proved by its opposite. Gloria Swanson falls short of the accepted standards of beauty. When she isn’t bundled up in bizarre clothing, she holds attention thru her personality and her ability to act. She ian't forgotten between pictures. Off-hand, I should say the 10 best actresses of the screen are Mary Pickford, Nazimova, Pauline Fred- Irene Rich, Pola Negri, Norma Talmadge, Lillian Gish, Colleen Moore and Gloria Swanson. Only Mary Pickford of that group would be considered beautiful by a committees of artists. Her effective- ness les in the simplicity of her characterizations. Mary Pickford's beauty !s only in- cidental to the picture. The settings are made to lend effect to the story rather than to the star. She repre. sents “beauty in distress,” as Stan- ws would say.

I simply could not keep it in curl, especially on damp days, After reading about liquid silmerine in all the leading maga- zines I decided to give it a trial, 1 applied it according to directions and then put my hair up and left it over night. I Was so delighted with the lovely curls in the morning and, beat of all, they stay nice all day, regardless of the weather. When my hair gets straight again, instead of giving {t another application, 1 simply dampen it with water be- fore putting it on curlers. By #0 doing, one ailmerine application lasts a week or ten s. 1 for one am thankful for this miraculous liquid silmerine.” hia letter from a Pennsylvania enthusiast Is one of many which show that liquid silmerine is equally lefficacious for bobbed and long hair.
