Advertising Section Patsy Ruth Miller says: T suppose a movie actress' skin, smoth■*■ ered with heavy grease-paint all day, gets the worst treatment in the world. ■The Colonel's Lad} and Judy O'Grady may be sisters under the skin but not above it. I always wash my face with cold-cream — soap and water seem to give the skin such a scrubbed look. And I have half a dozen other creams for different purposes — one, for instance, makes such a good base for powder and keeps one from having to dab at one's nose at all times and places with a powderpuff. Another cream feeds the skin — I use that at night. And there are whitening creams and astringent creams, and they come in the duckiest jars for the dressing-table ! Good complexions dont just happen — not in these strenuous days. They are the result of care and effort. A girl could embroider a luncheon set for her trousseau in the time she spends on herface in a year — but if she used her time that way she probably wouldn't need any trousseau ! Alma Rubens says: py complexion treatment is internal. I drink quarts of water, and pints of orange juice every day. I suppose the second item would be expensive back East where oranges sell for seventy-five cents a dozen, but out here they are almost as free as the .climate. Two glasses of the juice forms my breakfast instead of the coffee I must confess I would prefer. Sometimes it is lunch too — if I am on a calory strike. In the movies, if you eat a chocolate drop it is likely to show on the screen in your next picture. After my cold-cream treatment at night, I read for half an hour, then snap off the light and fall asleep at once, says Patsy Ruth Miller ivr And, by the way, when I .say "Drink orange juice," I mean without the addition of any sugar or — well, anything else that might get in ! As for the rest — well, creams and lotions, of course, but not till you've got your face clean first. I scrub my face with hot water and a pure soap until it not only looks clean but feels clean. Soap wont make the skin dry if it is rinsed off with plenty of fresh water. And afterward — your favorite creams, of course. Margaret Livingston says: "Plenty of sunshine, basketball, swimming and athletics in general. These are my recipes for a good complexion and the method I employ to keep in physical condition. You will notice that all great athletes, who are perfect specimens of health, with pink and glowing cheeks, follow exercise as a means of preserving their looks and physique. I have found this the best method. In the first place it is not artificial but natural. And nature is the best course to follow. I believe salt water — I take a swim every day I possibly can — has a beneficial effect on the face. With my face still wet I expose it to the sun, not long because I do not wish to be tanned, believing that the face, like flowers, needs water and Old Sol. If they stimulate flowers, certainly they can stimulate the face. Naturally exercise, like basketball and such, keeps the body in good condition and this is reflected in the features. I often give my face a scrubbing with a soft brush and water and finish with cold-cream. But I rely chiefly on exercise and athletics. The Answer Man {Continued from page 94) lina; Helex M.; M. B. — Your letters were very interesting, and I am sorry not to give each of you an answer. Your questions have been answered above. Try again. Terry Tingle. — You ask if I can play the harp. I dont know, I never tried ; are you picturing me as St. Peter? Sure, King Baggot is alive. In the dim and distant past I used to speak of him very often in these columns but now we seldom hear of him because he is only a mere director. Last year he directed The Tornado, The Gaiety Girl, and The IVhispered Maine. Yes, Beverly Hills is a very fine section of Hollywood. I've never been to California, but I imagine the hotels are just as expensive there as anywhere. Very few original scenarios are accepted these days. Most of the screen productions are taken from books. Thanks very much for your most complimentary letter. Pell. — Hello there ! Glad to hear from you again. I am sorry I didn't get out to see you perform, but I have to perform here myself and it takes lots of valuable time. Maybe some day we will see your name in the bright lights of Broadway. I sure do enjoy your letters. Warner Baxter Admirer. — So you want to know about Eddie Phillips and Rex Lease. We'll see. Warner Baxter is playing with Billie Dove and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. in The Air Mail. Well, I try to please and that is the only way to be pleased. Walter N. Ley, U. S. Naval Hospital, Great Lakes, Illinois, Ward sixteen, would be glad to hear from movie fans, as he is bedridden and very lonely. Wont some of my readers write him a cheery letter ? J. R. B. — Your letter was mighty interesting. Xazimova was born in 1879. Now Maurice Maeterlinck has signed up to write three original stories for MetroGoldwyn. Why. I should say that Sunday seems to be the most popular day at moving picture theaters. Saturday is pretty busy too. Yes. that is the old question— Are most patrons interested in the star or the story.
