She did it, too, and held her chin up as she entered every night club where her very presence caused a hum of whispers and a buzz of gossip. It was a courageous gesture, courageously made. On the same lot with Nazimova worked a kid named Rudolph Valentino. There was also Ramon Novarro, Alice Terry and Mae Murray. Charles Ray was one of the great favorites of his day. A country boy, himself, he brought something infinitely sweet and fine to the screen as the bashful, timid lad. Having achieved tremendous popularity, Ray decided that he wanted to throw away the battered straw hat and overalls and play a part which contained real depth and drama. His experience has been repeated so often in film history that it bears telling here. And again I must hark back to my original theme that the movies belong to you and that you make and break stars. YOU were crazy about Charlie Ray as a country boy and you didn't want him any other way — just as you love Janet Gaynor in sweet and simple roles, today, and no matter how rebellious she grows and how capable she feels of doing adult characters, you won't let her. But at that time Charlie didn't know what a supreme dictator his audience was. He determined to make a great and lasting picture. He organized his own company, invested his own money in it and began the film version of the well known "Courtship of Miles Standish." He put not only his money but his heart into this picture. Determined to have it accurate in every detail he hired the best research experts and historians available, it was an ambitious production but Ray had no doubts of its artistic value. It was artistic but the public was shocked at seeing their beloved country boy all decked out in Puritan garb. They put thumbs down on the picture. The venture cost Charlie not only his money but his popularity. Years later he attempted a comeback with M-G-M but he could not regain what he had lost. He wore a silk hat and was starred in a film called "Paris" which was notable only because a vivid girl, one of the M-G-M stock actresses, played the role of an apache. Her name was Joan Crawford. The old and the new order were combined. There was Charlie Ray struggling pitifully to make a come-back and Joan Crawford struggling just as hard to rise to heights. He didn't and she did. Now he's playing bit parts. You see, the picture business is so highly personal, its stock in trade being personality, that once the public learns to love a star and think of that star as a certain type almost nothing can be done by star or producer to change the star in the fan mind. Think it over for yourself. Janet Gaynor is sweet, so you won't allow her to go sophisticated. And Golly ! what a howl you would raise if Garbo decided to toss mystery aside and play light comedy. You have always been that way and, from all present indications, you will continue like that through all the years of film history. And there I go, getting ahead of my story as usual. Well, next month I'm going to try to give you the real flavor of the Hollywood of 1919. It has sparkle, verve and glamor, I assure you ; yet the meaning of the word "glamor" was _ probably not known by more than ten citizens in the whole town.

But remember this — you can't rub away a bad complexion with expensive creams and ointments. You can't cover it up with cosmetics. Get at the cause. Most muddy, pale complexions, pimply, blotchy skins, are caused by sluggishness of the bowels and lack of calcium in the system. Stuart's Calcium Wafers correct both of these troubles — quickly, easily, pleasantly. Thousands of charming women owe their clear, healthy skins — their satin-smooth, radiantly fresh complexions to these marvelous little wafers. Try them for a few days — then look in your mirror!
