Madge Evans was feted when she visited Olvera Street in Los Angeles. Here she is talking with a group of Mexicans, wearing a navy and white taffeta suit and a plain navy straw hat. Her favorite touch of white at the neck, and gloves, navy sandals Hand woven baskets catch Madge's attention. Her dress of dark blue crepe, gaily flowered. It has an apron drape, with fluted edge to match the trimming at wrist, and a bow the neck. Her wide hat is blue straw; blue kid sandals MADGE EVANS Tells What The SCREEN Has Taught Her THERE is a young star who has never "gone Hollywood." Her name is Madge Evans. When I heard that she had said that the movies had taught her a lot I asked her to tell me about it, for I feel that Madge has absorbed all the best that the screen has to teach about grooming while she has remained the charming sort of girl that one might meet in one's own home town.

Stopping to inspect native-made jewelry, she wears a summer suit of navy crepe with white pique collar and revers. Her blouse is dark blue crepe with which she wears pearls strain of her work and has improved her health. She has learned to control her body even when it is relaxed. She remembers the first shock she got when she saw herself on the screen. She saw herself sitting listening to Ramon Novarro, relaxed and natural as she had thought, but altogether lackadaisical when caught by the camera. [ please turn to page 103 ]
