flfiWE2IK!*ft How Ora Puts Over Her Aura {Continued from page 82) They used to give me three whole introductions while I danced across the center. The Spanish officers would toss flowers at me and shout 'Bravo !' I fairly danced on petals. It was all very much more romantic than being on the stage in our country. I was but a little girl of fourteen, yet I could make up to look like nineteen, like my chum, so we were almost twins. I learnt to speak Spanish quite well, but I've forgotten most of it and I really like French better, anyway. I've not quite forgiven mother and father for cheating me out of being born in Paris !" "And what do you like to do with spare time, Miss Carew?" "I'm home mostly, we enjoy music, my sister is with us, but she used' to be on the stage also. We drive a good deal." When Ora Carew turns her beseeching, appealing brown eyes upon you, there's no resisting her charm. It isn't because she has written her own vaudeville acts, or designed her frocks, nor because she sings the lovely, plaintive foreign melodies composed by her talented mother, nor yet because Ora can invent dances ■which thrilled Orpheum patrons, but simply because she is beautiful and modest— a combination of charms which is bound to produce a magnetic aura, a light which shines in the public and private life of Ora Carew.

Which adds to her importance. A famous democrat tells of his first sad days at college — days when he realized that in making over Paw's pants for his "use, Maw hadn't consulted the last fashion books and had, unfortunately, cut 'em above his shoe-tops. The other fellows were wearing 'em "heel-cracker" length. When he could stand the guying of his fellow students no longer, the embryo lawyer wrote Paw and asked for money with which to purchase a new and lengthy pair. "My Son," wrote Paw, "Them pants is good enough. You jest git t' studyin' and remember that a man's brain is never measured by the length of his pants." So, real stars are not measured by the length of their bodies so much as by the length of their brains. Which makes it fine for little Gloria Joy. THE THRESHOLD OF , HER DISAPPOINTMENT By Harvey Peake She tripped up to The Motion Picture Theater And read the posters announcing The showings for the day. Among others she saw: Two-reel Educational Film Entitled "General Hygene." "I must see that," she cooed, "Because I'm so fond of soldiers, And especially Of officers !" And she passed hastily in. "Here's an Extra $50, Grace — Pm making real money now!" i "Yes, I've been keeping it a secret until pay day came. I've been promoted with an increase of $50 a month. And the first extra money is yours. Just a little reward for urging me to study at home. The boss says my spare time training has made me a valuable man to the firm and there's more money coming soon. We're starting up easy street, Grace, thanks to you and the I. C. S. !"
