Society and the Cinema Continued frura page 26 retired from the stage, the daughterin-law turned to the movies. But, despite tempting offers that were made to her to continue in the pictures, she never tried a second venture after being directed by D. W. Griffith in "Way Down East." More persevering was an equally fashionable young matron, Mrs. Lydig Hoyt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Julian W. Robbins, and sister of Mrs. Van Rensselaer King. As Julia Hoyt she made her screen debut with Norma Talmadge in "The Wonderful Thing." Deciding that the stage appealed to her more than did the studio, she then became leading lady with William Faversham in a revival of "The Squaw Man," and last season appeared with Billie Burke in "Rose Briar." Natalie Hammond, the young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Hays Hammond, of Washington and New York, took part in a picture production in Hollywood, despite the wealth and position of her family, and Es-. telle Carroll, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Carroll of Brooklyn, has done "extra" work at the Famous Players studio on Long Island.

One of the first of these was Robert Lee Keeling, who hailed originally from Baltimore, but has long been popular in New York society. With his sister, Mrs. Stillson Hutchins, widow of a Washington millionaire, Mr. Keeling has passed many summers at Newport, where I have encountered him through mutual friends. Whv did Glenn Hunter of Highland Falls go on the stage? The star of "Merton of the Movies" was not the offspring of a theatrical family. But the spirit moved him, and he has become immensely popular. Whv did Craig Biddle, Tr.. of the social register turn to the movies? Mr. and Mrs. Craig Biddle, of Philadelphia and New York, have never been affiliated with grease paint and cold cream. But again a spirit moved, and the young nephew of Mrs. Henry Clews, Jr., has been supeing in Holly Advertising Section Do This Combat for ten days that film on teeth If you want better teeth, let us show you how millions now get them.

It clings and stays. Soon it becomes discolored, then forms those cloudy coats. The teeth's beauty is hidden until you remove it. Film also holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it. The)-, with tartar, are the chief cause of P)rorrhea. A new day comes No ordinary tooth paste effectively combats film, so all tooth troubles constantly i-creased. Then dental science found and proved out two effective methods. One of them disintegrates the film, the other removes it without harmful scouring. A new-type tooth paste was created to apply these methods daily. The name 105 Protect the Enamel Pepsodent disintegrates the film, then removes it with an agent far softer than enamel. Never use a film combatant which contains harsh grit. REG.
