She doesn't want to be Harold's leading lady again. When her longterm contract expired, before her marriage, they wanted her to renew it. But she didn't want to. "All I had to do was to look cute," she said. "There wasn't any chance for me to act. I want to do dramatic work, not comedies." Mildred a Quaker Maid M ildred Davis comes of a staid Quaker family, you know. 1 ler I ither always wanted to act ; he must have been a throw-back to some remote cavalier ancestor. But his familv held up their hands in horror. A play-actor in the family? God forbid! So the boy gave up his dearest wish and chose the profession which was almost as dramatic, the newspaper game. His daughter inherited her father's talent, and when she was offered the chance to support Harold Lloyd, he gave hei the permission he had not been able to gain. And his family cast him off ! But now, they are very proud of [ildred. The ban is lifted and the staid Philadelphia Davises boast of tl eir famous "baby." And they adore Harold! During their recent belated honeymoon trip east, Mildred and Ha i i Id visited her grandparents, and I vs Harold quite put her nose out of joint. The two of them together have d tie quite a bit of missionary work for actors in Philadelphia ! The Case of Alice Terry w hen Alice Terry finished The Prisoner of Zcnda, she turned over her star's dressing-room to Barbara La Marr and announced that she was through with pictures. Hereafter Alice Terry was not; she was to be only Mrs. Rex Ingram. She was going to revel in a perfect orgy of domesticity. She bought oodles of peignoirs and bungalow aprons and porch frocks and settled down to a life of placid housewi f ery. Ingram protested. He had never had so beautiful a leading lady. Miss Terry screens beautifully. Her beauty is serene, faultless. But still, manlike, he rather liked the idea of having his lovely wife waiting for him in the evening. So he made Trifling Women, with Barbara LaMarr in the leading feminine role. And Alice Terry stayed at home and enjoyed it all hugely at first. No early calls on the set to get up for. No interviews ; she never cared much for interviews. It didn't even matter whether she maintained a strict diet. But enjoyment paled into ennui in the end. And when her husband started for Florida to film Where the Pavement Ends, Alice Terry was prominently numbered among the cast. For which all discriminating fans are sincerely thankful ! Natalie Returns to Films u nder a floral bell in the beautiful Long Island home of Norma Talmadg'e and Joseph Schenck, Natalie Talmadge married Buster Keaton, and thereby renounced all claims to screen fame, didn't want to stay in pictures. She was domestic by instinct. She was different from her sisters. Norma is a gloriously beautiful woman, with a hint of tragedienne about her. Constance is a butterfly flitting from flower to flo sipping the sweets from life and joying every moment. But Natalie is a born wife and mother. So she made a home for Buster. Baby Joseph was born. She and Buster were perfectly happy. Baby Joseph grew big and strong. He rule the household with a rod of iron. His mother and father and his f amc H are his absolute slaves. He grew to be a year old. Then Buster said to Natalie. ''The kicl is a big boy now. Why not pme and be my leading lady in my next picture?" Natalie Loves Her Home N ^ atalie wasn't at all sure wanted to come, and in that sb4 was different from the other brid loved her home. She liked house. She liked to take care of her baby herself. A nurse had on' e let her baby fall ill. Thenceforth 1 pected all nurses and took over the entire charge of her son. Screen work would cut in on all this. But Buster insisted, thought was not unpleasant. Buster was planning something new in comedy stuff — a costume comedy in which the humor was to be supplied by the ness of garb and setting. No stuff. So she came back. I watched her go through a scene with Ralph Bushman, the tall son o E the once famous Francis X., by the . wore a quaint frock of rose tafieta, with tight bodice, full crinolined skirt and
