Modern Screen (Dec 1931 - Nov 1932 (assorted issues))

Modern Screen the basis of an amazingly new idea. "I want to start a shop for women," she told me. "There would be nothing else like it in the world. I would take every woman who ever judged a man unwisely and try to teach her good judgment. And then I would teach her the art of being attractive. Almost every woman can be made more beautiful than she is." "Are you sure ?" I interposed. "I'm positive . . . make-up, clothes, posture, oh, all those things. Then I would analyze her personality and give her just the right things. My shop would make her fine and big, both inside and out. Then, when the right man came along and she was very, very sure he was the right man, she would be able to hold him forever." An amazing idea — and so simple. "But any girl, if she is smart, can do that for herself," I said. "She needn't go to your shop if she reads the right things and does the right things." I wish you could have seen her curled up on that studio chair in her dressing room, her eyes so warm and eager and her face so intent under its thick makeup, as she thought that over. "That's right," she agreed after a moment. "I really couldn't expect to have many customers, but I think it would be grand fun trying to help people see the way to make love last." Ann Dvorak (Continued from page 64) Ann, always the restless and excitable, was almost in a panic. She wailed, "I'm sure he has been looking at the rushes of the interesting vivid girl this Cesca is, and probably he has me all mixed up with her in his mind. He probably thinks I'm interesting and colorful and witty . . . and all those things. If he really came to know me he would probably be convinced I'm just dull and every-dayish. Then perhaps he wouldn't have any more interest in putting me over on the screen. I just can't go. You'll have to tell him something when he calls up." The tall, likeable, millionaire producer from Texas called Ann on the telephone not only that once but many other times. She was invited to go dining, dancing and premiering with him. Each time I was elected to fabricate some glowing story to the effect that Ann had just left to keep another engagement ... or she was week-ending in Santa Barbara ... so sorry she missed you this time. I hope my guardian angel has not made marks too black against my name for the imaginative and colorful lies I told Mr. Hughes about Ann's social activities. I am sure that in time he must have come to believe the Dvorak girl the most popular in Hollywood. "T HOPE so," Ann breathed when I confided these suspicions to her. "It's a lot better that he thinks I am popular Don't you hate housework, Helen ? It always makes my hands so red and rough /" <.<.rtr\ J. hat never bothers me since I've been using Pacquin's Hand Cream. It keeps my hands softer and smoother than anything I've ever tried. It seems to get right into the skin, somehoiv. I think it's wonderful!" "It gets right into the skin" tells the whole story of why Pacquin's makes the hands so marvelously smooth and soft. For Pacquin's contains certain natural oils essential for keeping the skin supple. Unlike many creams, Pacquin's literally sinks into the skin instead of evaporating into the air. As your skin absorbs the cream, it regains these natural oils which sun and wind and water take out. Try a bit of Pacquin's on the palm of your hand. Note how much more supple and smooth your skin feels, without looking or feeling the least bit "greasy". It's marvelous, too, for preventing "crepey" elbows and protecting the delicate skin of the neck and arms against the ravages of exposure. Buy a trial jar today !
