"To produce the effect of age in a face, I apply fish skin which causes the natural skin to shrivel and become wrinkled. The wrinkles then are accentuated by the careful use of green paint." Another difficult thing, according to Mr. Holland, is to produce a harelip, one which, at sight, may readily be recognized as an affliction. In "The Rendezvous," filmed quite a while ago, he played the role of such an individual. "I wore false teeth," he said, "from which protruded a wire which had been fastened to the eye tooth on each side. It tended to lift the lip. I couldn't talk without 'harelipping' my words. "A false mustache or beard must be lighter in color than the hair of the person wearing it," the make-up wizard said. "And I never give my approval to one until I have examined it from all angles with a little 'air filter,' a device which shows just how it will look under the light of the Kleigs." It hasn't been told before that Mr. Holland made Douglas Fairbanks up as a double for Allan Forrest in "Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall," and photographed Doug's athletic back in place of Allan's because it was so muscular. This probably is the only time on record Douglas Fairbanks ever doubled for any one. In the production "Ben-Hur" Mr. Holland was given one of his greatest opportunities for proving his skill om page 89 in make-up, and his accomplishments for that film probably will long he looked upon as classics. He transformed Kathleen Key arid Claire McDowell, two of the beauties of cinemaland, into hideous-looking leper women. He likewise made Novarro up for the scene in which he drags himself across the desert, and his appearance is pitiful. He put in four hours making "Bull" Montana up to resemble an ape for "Go and Get It," and also for "The Lost World." During the time I sat in Mr. Holland's studio-workshop, there was a constant stream of persons, mostly men, coming to him for help. At the studio, they .tell an interesting story about him. When the company filming "Bob Hampton of Placer" had finished their work in Glacier National Park, the Black feet Indians who had taken part were invited to a big powwow. Holland borrowed an elaborate Indian chieftain's outfit, went to his room and made up as an Indian. Then he singled out a particular beauty, a former "Follies" girl, and asked her to dance. In a spirit of lark, thinking he was a real Indian, she accepted and started toward the dressing room to discard her cloak. Instead of waiting, Holland grunted, and as though not understanding what she had said, started to follow. The girl gave a shriek and fled. He was introduced to another as "Chief Eagle Feather " She tried to buy his moccasins ! He Has to Fight for His Parts! Continued from page 90 When the introduction was made, Von Stroheim confessed that he could scarcely believe that he was the diffident actor of the day before. Hersholt wanted to play Krauss in Constance Talmadge's "The Goldfish," and took a long chance, when Joe Schenck couldn't "see" him in the part, by cutting his hair short. Again, for Hempel in "So Big," he had to convince Colleen Moore and Charles Brabin that he could look realistically old. "You're great in character drama, but this is a comedy," they reminded him when he applied for the part of the Jewish money lender in "Her Night of Romance." The rehearsal of a scene, however, proved that he knew all about comedy. Even though Fairbanks knew him well and had faith in him, tests were necessary before he was intrusted with the playing of Don Fcbriquc in "Don O." Again, for "My Old Dutch," he had to convince the director that he could make up to play age. And for his parts in "Stella Dallas" and "The Viennese Medley," he qualified only after much persuasion. And then, at last, to his surprise, he was given the lead in "The Old Soak" without any preliminary whatever of having to convince somebody. Universal, which has put him under contract, merely dropped the plum in his lap with a blessing, and he has his fingers crossed, for fear some one in authoritv will confront him with dubious attitude and send him back to his job of "convincing."
