PERFECT VOICE INSTITUTE Studio 1 589, 1922 Sunnyside Ave., Chicago, III. wore gingham rompers and looked about ten. Mrs. Pickford and Lottie came on — Mary wanted to, but hasn't been feeling well since she got back from Europe, and Doug thought she'd better not make the trip. Every one in the film world was there, of course, and some of the celebrities were pallbearers — Eugene O'Brien, Owen Moore, Tommy Meighan, Harrison Fisher, the artist who discovered Olive when she first came to New York, Montague Love, and several big theatrical men were included in the list of honorary pallbearers. It rained that afternoon, and — well, it was just one of the things that make you feel that life isn't worth living. I moped for days and then bought a simply villainous hat in a moment of desperation, trying to console myself. And as I dashed out of the shop wearing it and hating myself even then forgetting it, of course, I ran into David Powell — if it hadn't been somebody so good looking I wouldn't have minded so much ! He walked three blocks down Fifth Avenue with me, telling me all about how he was sailing for England soon to be featured in a picture called 'The Mystery Road,' and I hardly heard what he said because I was peeking into all the shop windows we passed to see if I really looked as awful as I thought I did." "If it was that hat you have on you probably did," I offered by way of consolation. "It isn't; this is one that ZaSu Pitts bought of Ann May and didn't like, and I traded it to her for a pair of white gloves from France that my brother brought me after the war, that were too big for me. There goes Margarita Fisher — wish I had her eyes !" "I'd rather have Mae Murray's," I declared. "I'm so glad she's signed again with Famous Players-Lasky — for five years, too. I phoned her my congratulations the minute I heard it." "So did I," declared Fanny, pulling her fur collar up till it almost hid her eyes. "No, I'm not starting for the north pole — merely for the new Lasky studio on Long Island; Billie Burke's working late, and we're going to have supper together in her darling dressing room ; she says it's more attractive than her suite at the Ritz !" A Brand-new Type of Star Continued from page 69 for comedy, and sent me over to Mack Sennett, at Biograph, where I made comedies for a year. But I stuck to legitimate make-up," declared Hatton proudly. "Never was I hit with a pie or soused by a leaky hose." He left pictures for the stage after that, but two years later came back, and since then has appeared in such big productions as "Joan the Woman," "The Whispering Chorus," in which he handled the main part of the action, and "Ever}woman." At present he's playing a press agent, T. Anthony Squibbs, in "Head Over Heels," with Mabel Normand. "And I'm allowed to act young — no crutch and no beard ; think of it !" he exclaimed enthusiastically. "This is a real, live young chap — and incidentally, I'm patterning him a little after Doug Fairbanks' publicity-getter. I often do that in creating a part ; fashion them after people I know or characters I've met in books, especially in Thackeray and Dickens." So if you ever meet Raymond Hatton keep your eye on your own actions — you may see an impression of vourself on the screen later on. The Man Who Made Himself Over Continued from page 74 And as for smoking and drinking — "Prohibition is the best thing that could have happened to the country, regarded in its relation to health," he averred. "It won't be felt now, but in ten years you'll see the improvement. And no one who wants a perfect physique should smoke a great deal — women should taboo tobacco entirely. If nicotine will make the ends of your fingers so yellow that no soap can remove the stain, think what it does to the lungs when it gets inside. I regulate myself to two pipes a day." There's no telling what other secrets of health I might have learned, but I had an engagement. It was to have been at a certain Broadway beauty emporium where they make a specialty of facial massage, but on thinking it over, I decided to hunt up a gymnasium and register there instead. And if I don't put on the ten pounds Bill Russell promised me as the result, I'll use my influence with Fox to have his contract broken.
