Needles - to say, beauty ;uid char-
arter are the characteristics in demand
in the films, a> everywhere else. The
curious fact is that faces which, in
real liic, possess great beauty or decj
character, frequently fail to carry this
acroy to the camera. •
Camera Accentuates Defects
rhe chief reason for this lies in the
fact that the camera docs not accept
color values, and at the same tjme
accentuates many defects which at*
ordinarily imperceptible to the eye.
I 1 example, a wonderful type of
Italian beauty appeared at our studio
whib* we were casting a picture called
'Wife Insurance." She had never

and our casting director was quick to
\ei/c the opportunity to make a test
of her face. When the picture was
shown, her extraordinarily fine color-
ing, of course, went for nothing ami
!: r beauty was entirely marred by the
in. xplicable appearance nf#a fine down
over her upper lip and a large mole
on her left temple. Both the mole
and the down had been entirely un-
noticed in dsfvifght,' but 1 uiidcpthe

Red Films Black
( )nsid. r:;;ie)iis which do not matter
tn the slightest degree in facial beauty
on the screen are those of coloring
;'d of fineness of the features'. The
pinker woman's cheeks may be, the
hi'Dower they appear to the camera,
for red photographs as black, and a
f.'ice wbicii is ixfautiftH. but coarse in
outlines iix^njcntly photographs)
quite as wnl Us ilfr beautiful face
which is exquisite in every detail.
I Many people who are beautiful
I when seen in "full face" arc most un-
attractive in profile. In fact, the mat-
. trr narrows down still further, for
quite often those who have a lovely
profile, are, for some inexplicable rea-
son, gross and unattractive when the
face is turned to show three-quarters.
A number of the present film stars
have risen to the top despite such im-
pediments by stipulating in all their
contracts that they he never shown in
close-up in the pose in which they are
unattractive. One star, in particular,
never shows the left side of her face
in close-up for this reason. This,
however, is obviously a great handi-
Manly Force Demanded *
The male types which arc most in
demand are not those whose appeal is
through physical beauty. Audiences
are sick of large-eved, romantic heroes,
and are demanding a little manly force
and character in their heroes.
To lihn well, a man's head should
be large, rugged, with the features
cut in masses, like a Rodin bust.
\\ hcther he is attempting to play
■'juveniles," "leads" or "heavies," bis
face must possess the cardinal requis-
ite of character. Deep set eyes, a
strong chin, a jutting forehead, a
prominent nose are all desirable.
Again, the high cheek bones and long
face appear desirable characteristics.
William S. Hart's success depends
largely 011 these two simple character-
istics of facial structure.
Neither in men nor in women is the
hair an essential for screen beauty.
\\ igs and trick arrangements of the
hair are a function of the make-up
depart mailt, and a man or woman with
no hair at all could still be made to
appear most attractive to the un-
sophisticated camera.
In analysing your own face, then,
ask yourself the fallowing questions:
I, \ A ret my eyes large ?
Ts Oiy skin line and well kept ?
Is my month- sura M-and -are ray teeth
good ? ! | \ 1
Is itiy nose-straight ?
.Has* my .face character, something
which makes it not only beautiful, but
whvchj portrays the underlying person-
ality ?

Beat Coke Shortage With Oil.
Because of a coke shortage due tn

turn to sonic other fuel for heating
cupola furnaces <Ml seemed to be the
only promising medium, and Its trial
as tin alternate produced some aston-

perimental furnaces were equipped
with two burners and a necessary

closed the fact that the coke charge,
when oil was used, was reduced by

America is tin* greatest nation of
home-owners the world ever knew.
Kven though many home owners bad
to weather some financial storms in
order to hold on to their land titles,
they are well repaid when it is con-
sidered that the average man who
owns his own home pays but ?." • a
year in rent, if we look at the Interest
on the Investment, plus the taxes and
repairs, as rent. Contracted with this,
the man who does not own his own
home and is forced to pay rent gets
