Lovely Screen Favorite, Seen In A Leading Role In “The Bargain,” First National Drama Of Domestic Life, Now
At The Strand, Tells How To Ward Off The Years
(Feature for Women’s Page—Plant in No. 1 Paper, Second Day of Run) Hollywood, Calif.—Slimness is not just a qaulity—it’s a
state of mind!
People who know me and some who see me on
the screen often ask me what I do to keep shim. After all, what can one do other than the things perfectly obvious to any in
telligence?
None of us do anything particularly extraordinary in keeping slender other than the old story of exercise and diet, but
it is the way we do these things that makes it torture for some and not for others.
I personally find keeping in perfect physical condition, and slim, very simple. I am fond of walking, and so I walk a lot. And though I am very fond of rich pastries and strange desserts from far and interesting countries, the most I do is nibble at them; and that only when I crave it tremendously. That is my only material sacrifice to the Goddess of the Svelte.
I truly think, though, that my habit of walking is responsible for my sliimness. Long, long ago I formed the habit of early rising and taking long walks before breakfast. People whom I have occasion to call early in the morning are often surprised when they find a message on their desks awaiting them when they arrive in their offices. “So early,” they say. “I thought motion picture people slept late in the mornings.”
Yet it is simple habits like these that can make all the difference in the world between a delightfully slender person and one who is heavy. It is a very rare occasion indeed when I do not get up early in the morning and walk at least a mile in the fresh, clear morning air before breakfast. It does wonders not only for the figure but for the work of the day. One is so much more alert and active that the added energy with which one works in itself is reducing, at least one thinks so and that helps. It seems to me that every one can find some pleasurable exercise equivalent to this to make a habit.
All this is not much to give to those who clamor for strange recipes for reducing and slenderness. Yet the only answer I can give is what I have said before—lots of exercise and a sensible diet taken in the form that suits you best will do the trick more effectively than anything else. And try to think young thoughts—for youth and slimness nearly always go together by a natural affinity!
Another way in which I keep the youthful physique is by singing— for proper breathing is a necessity. Every lesson I take aids not only my voice but my body and my thought-world, too.
Others featured in “The Bargain” are Lewis Stone, Evalyn Knapp, Charles Butterworth, John Darrow, Osear Apfel, Una Merkel and Nella Walker. The picture is an adaptation of “You and I” the Harvard Prize Play by Philip Barry, which ran for over a year on Broadway. Robert Milton directed.

Uniquely Natural Set Is Built For
Filming “Bargain”
(Current—Plant 4th Day)
Interior and exterior of an entire house, from ground floor to attic, and from front drive to back garden, was constructed on one huge stage at the First National Studio for filming of “The Bargain,” which is now playing at the Theatre.
As far as the ground floor was concerned, there were no disconnected sets. way to front door, open that and enter the entrance hallway, with stairs leading up. The living rooms
One could walk from drive
and dining room connect with the hallway, and one can roam around as though he were in an actual house, furnished completely and in good taste.
The stairways, however, did not lead to on actual upstairs. The bedrooms were connected, just as the ground floor was, and were constructed on an adjoining portion of the stage. Walking out of the door of the ground floor, one entered a garden with grass, trees, shrubs and flowers. Everything was real, having been transplanted to its indoor setting. The attic, in which Lewis Stone is depicted at work as an artist, also came in for accurate detail in construction.
The cast of “The Bargain” includes besides Lewis Stone, Doris Kenyon, Evalyn Knapp, Charles Butterworth, John Darrow, Una Merkel, Oscar Apfel and Nella Walker. The picture is an adaptation of “You and I,” the Harvard prize play by Philip Barry, which enjoyed a _ year’s
