War Savings Stamps J 96 AGE The Fame and Fortune Contest (Continued fr as well in an engraving as an ordinary portrait. The contest is open to men. This should be repeated, perhaps. Many masculine contestants have appeared, but, we regret to report, their average hasn't nearly approached the so-called weaker sex. It is up to the men to make a better showing. Upon the closing, the final winner will be selected. Undoubtedly he or she (as the contest is now open to men) will be selected from among the various semimonthly honor rolls. It is possible that three or four leaders may be chosen and invited to come to New York for test motion pictures, after which the final winner wall be decided upon. It is also possible that a first prize may be awarded to both a man and a woman. This will, however, be decided later, an announcement being made in both The Motion Picture Magazine and The Motion Picture Classic. Since the winner will be named from the various honor rolls, it is important that contestants submit their portrait, or portraits, at the earliest possible moment, thus getting, if possible, an early place on these rolls. It is important, if you have already won a place on the honor roll, that you submit at least several more pictures to be used later by the judges. In this case, contestants should write the words "honor roll" across the face of the entrance coupon which is attached to the portrait. The words should be written in red ink, to be plainly distinguished. om page 69) Let us briefly outline the purpose of the contest once more : The two magazines will give two years' guaranteed publicity to the winner. This will include cover portraits in colors, special interviews, pictures, special articles, etc. — the sort of publicity that could not be purchased at any price. The Motion Picture Magazine and The Motion Picture Classic will secure an initial position for the winner and other opportunities, if necessary. At the end of two years The Motion Picture Magazine and The Motion Picture Classic guarantee that the winner will be known thruout the civilized world. The Fame and Fortune jury includes: Mary Pickford, Thomas luce, Cecil de Mille, Maurice Tourneur, Commodore J. Stuart Blackton, James Montgomery Flagg, Howard Chandler Christy and Eugene V. Brewster. The terms of the contest follow : 1. Open to any young woman, or man, in the world, except those who have already played prominent screen or stage roles. 2. Contestants must submit a portrait, upon the back of which must be pasted a coupon from either The Motion Picture Magazine or The Motion Picture Classic, or a similar coupon of their own making. 3. Contestants can submit any number of portraits, but upon the back of each must be pasted an entrance coupon. MAGAZINE ENTRANCE COUPON Contestant No (Not to he filled in by contestant) Name.

The hours I've spent with thee, Bill Hart, Have skinned a string of meals from me ; I pass up table d'hote and a la carte — My noonday spree, my noonday spree ! Each hour a meal, each meal a swear, To ease a throb in anguish wrung ! I quell each throb until the end, And there I'm all unstrung ! Oh, movie sprees that stress and burn ! Oh, famished gain and dinner loss ! I sell each feed and starve, the price to earn To come across Bill Hart, to come across ! — C. Wiles Hallock.
