Nstnrsl Body Brace Co. 380 Rash Building SALINA, KANSAS ! The Dominating Diva I (Continued from page 17) ^ Mr. Tellegen, who had just entered the room, smiled. Yet we doubt if Miss I Farrar noticed. Her eyes, from beneath a huge, floppy crimson hat, coolly studied ! the opposite wall. I “Possibly you may think it is because, , being in separate fields of theatrical acI tivity, we are apart much of the time. 1 But really that is not the answer. It is because, to be successful, marriage must be based upon good comradeship. The roseate glow of romance cannot endure indefinitely. When that fades, there ; must be a foundation of comradeship. Other things enter into it, such as a union of active, developing minds. Buit comradeship is vital.” Mr. Tellegen glanced up from examining a sectional fishpole he had just purchased. “That’s quite true,” he smiled. Miss Farrar is very definite in her opinions. For instance, she believes thoroly in the star system. Her reasoning is direct. “A big screen director may take a young and promising young woman and he may train her to portray a moment of life as he sees it,” she reasons. “But the spark of an understanding delineation will not be there. On the 1 other hand, if that same director has a ! .star with years of training and years of I living life behind her, he can in.stantly get vastly different results. The cooperation of the two means that the scene will attain the zenith of its possibilities.” Here Miss Farrar paused. “It is for this reason that I believe Cecil De Mille and his screen stock company are working , into a cul de sac — indeed, that any company without a star fails of its possi1 bilities.” Miss Farrar believes that a star far off-balances any distortion of the .story j made to fit the player. “A novelist or a i dramatist frequently finds one of his chpacters developing unexpectedly, .shifting his original story. What of that?” Miss Farrar smiles at the oft-repeated .statement that the field of drama and of literature is being rapidly exhausted by the cinema in the motion picture’s search for stories. “We have not started to film the big things yet,” she says. “My husband and I are perhaps in an unusual position to judge. We speak and read five languages, and we know the material that is waiting the mature motion picture camera.” You Have a Beautiful Face BUT YOUR NOSE? N this day and age attention to your appearance is an absolute necessity if you expect to make the most out of life. Not only should you wish to appear as attractive as possible for your own self-satisfaction, which is alone well worth your efforts, but you will find the world in general judging you greatly, 'I not wholly, by your ‘nooks.** therefore it pays to at all times. rhK MIT NO ONE TO SEE YOU LOOKING OTHERWISE; it will injure your welfare I Upon the impression you constantly make rests the failure or su^ess o^t your life.

M. TRILETY, Face Speolallst. 1039 Ackerman Bldtf.. Binghamton, N.Y. Miss Farrar is frank in her detestation of average screen criticism. “What is I the future of criticism which discusses I whether or not I film well and fails to consider whether or not I made the most I of an emotional mood?” Yet she is even more caustic about music criticism and j the critics who “play to their own petty whims,” as she expresses it. We talked j a long time of music, for it is Miss Far1 rar’s biggest interest. She frankly says that the cinema is but secondary, and always will be. (Continued on page 85) ( Sixty-eight)
