Faces of the Film Stars By F. Vance de Revere DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS CONSIDERING that .Mr. Fairbanks seldom remains in one spot more than a minute, it was difficult to make this analysis. He is one of the most active, restless persons that I have ever met. He is as active mentally as he is physically. In reading his character, the thing which impressed me most was the fact that his face is harmonic, showing a person who is very versatile and able to do many things. It is difficult for such an individual to concentrate upon one thing for any great length of time. The nose shows that he is a very observing person, with a good imagination and constructive ability, and with the ability to gather together quickly knowledge from that which he sees and hears. He is a man who prefers to handle the larger tilings and is not interested in petty details. There is also shown a lack of economy ; a person who likes to do things on a large scale. In the cheeks are daring and a love of change and adventure — not a very cautious nature but one that is frank and outspoken. The upper lip denotes a kindly, charitable nature. very enthusiastic and ardent. Here is also shown a love of display. The lower lip shows an affectionate nature with strong desires, one that is loyal in friendship. The chin and jaw show great endurance, energy and strength, a persistent person, ambitious and self-willed. Back of the hair-line are shown a ready use of words and literary ability.

I had expected to find her a sweet, lovable little person. I did; but I also found her a great natural leader and executive. In reading her character, I discovered in her high, broad forehead a very good mentality. The lines of her forehead show she is a logical thinker and of a serious, conscientious nature. The reflective faculties are good, and she has a splendid memory for faces. The nose shows her to be an observing person, with a vivid imagination, constructive ability, quick, accurate judgment, a lack of aggression but high self -protection, good ability to concentrate, and a very intuitive nature. She is a person who feels deeply and knows things instinctively. The shape of the nose denotes one who does not like to do things in opposition to her tastes. Above the eyes are well-developed perceptives, good powers of visualization, and great susceptibility to color. The chin and jaw prove that she has executive ability, great determination and remarkable independence. She has more nervous energy than physical energy, and is strong in her likes and dislikes. The cheeks show she is a person with the courage of her convictions ; an industrious, intense nature, with splendid powers of recuperation. The mouth (upper lip) denotes a kindly, charitable, sympathetic, ardent nature, very enthusiastic ; and interested (Continued on page 90) 43 PAG t
