Flags The Vogue of Norma Talmadge (Continued from page 73) " 'The Moth,' in my opinion, is a striking example of the psychology of color," Miss Talmadge went on. "You know that there was much that was fine in the character of Lucy Gillam, but during the early part of the picture it is completely concealed under the frivolous, heartless exterior of the society girl whose soul has never emerged from its chrysalis. "In gowning Lucy, it was necessary to use soft pinks and shades without too definite a character, but with a note of coldness. One of my evening gowns was of gold cloth and another of black net. An afternoon frock was of lavender with straight, soft folds. "Later, when Lucy found her mother heart I wore gowns with positive colors. " 'Poppy' required a different method of gowning from 'The Moth,' naturally, for Poppy was a warm-hearted, impulsive girl who suffered much before she attained happinesss. "There is something to the psychology of color. The success of 'Poppy' and 'The Moth' may be attributed in no small degree to the fact that I chose my gowns to intensify the emotions I expressed." Studio Actors Knit With Mary Pickford (Continued from page 46) what he starts — not only on the war front, but in such things as knitting a sweater — and even the men are taking a great interest in knitting." Mary is the idol of the studio, and when she pushes a ball of yarn and knittingneedles into the hands of an actor and asks him, with her sunny smile, to get busy, what can he do? While filming the picture, "Amarilly of Clothes-line Alley," the long benches in the studio where the actors sit awaiting their turn in the scene has been named "Clothes-line Alley," and it has become a hive of industry. It has become an unwritten rule that none may sit and idle, and even George Beban has mastered the intricacies of the knitting-needle and takes as much pride in his stitches as he does in his screen work. And Marshall Neilan, Mary Pickford's director, is utilized to hold the skeins while Miss Pickford rolls the yarn into a ball. Mr. Neilan is not only one of the highest salaried directors in America, but also one of the youngest. He was rejected on account of defective eyesight, but he overlooks no opportunity of "doing his bit." Mr. Neilan is very patient, and doesn't mind it one bit when a scene is kept waiting while Mary finishes her instructions to a new recruit of "Clothes-line Alley." And he was perfectly lovely and never said a word when it was discovered that a big scene had to be retaken because one of the girls had hung a skein of yarn on the camera and had left ravelings on the lens which loomed up like three-inch ropes in the picture. Miss Pickford's knitting hobby is well known, and an enterprising girl, in filling an application, after answering^ all the questions relating to her capabilities and experience as an actress, added the naive remark: "I am also an exceptionally fast knitter." ■ She got a job. w.s.s, WAR SAVING STAMPS issued by the UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT ARE YOU SAVING WAR STAMPS?
