SCRE ENL AND
IN times of financial depression and unemployment, widowed mothers and orphaned children are first to suffer — and silently, they suffer most. Thousands of them today need help — money help — for food and clothing and creature comforts.
It is for them that we ask your help this Mothers' Day. Whatsoever your mother would do for a sick neighbor or hungry child, do in her name for unemployed and destitute mothers and children who lack the comforts and necessities of life.
The Golden Rule Mothers' Fund will be distributed through the most efficient agencies where the need is most acute.
Give for mothers — for their children— the gift that will make them happiest.

The collecting of perfumes and lovely bottles is a pet pleasure. Betty has a three-shelved perfume table crowded with almost every make of perfume manufactured.
She has an amusing fad of purchasing pencils that boast enormous lead. She has been known to write letters but she is a zero correspondent. "I write enough checks to keep my hand in !" she defends herself.
Clothes lure her. One closet is devoted to evening gowns alone. She doesn't fancy herself in sport attire. Semi-sport is the nearest she comes to this phase of dress. Hats and slippers she is also most fastidious about. She recalls with a shadowy smile that her mother used to tell her :
"If you are well shod and well gloved, you are well dressed."
The beach is her paradise. She feels stifled living the year around in a house or a hotel apartment. When near the water, a buoyant, untrammeled freedom possesses her and one comes to know the real Betty Brent in this environment. She likes to get sunburned and is systematic about it, careful to burn evenly on back, front, and sides. She would stay in the water the day long if some one didn't literally chase her out. Her beach house is always a cheery place to be. You come and go as you please. You can walk through the place in wet feet, dripping salt water. At night, a talkative log fire crackles in the grate and Betty either reads, plays bridge or solitaire, or talks.
She's a night owl. When she isn't working in a picture her day really begins after luncheon. She likes to sleep late. In the afternoon she will go shopping, or keep appointments with furriers or modistes or something of the sort. She is home about five, however, and ready for tea. She prefers getting into lounging pajamas, rather than staying in street clothes. She relishes dancing and going with a congenial party of four or six to the Mayfair or the Embassv more than
any human I have ever known. In NewYork, she completes an evening with a sandwich and coffee at Reubens. In Hollywood, she has been known to finish it with bacon and eggs in B. B. B.'s Cellar or at the Brown Derby.
She has little desire for week-ending.
"By the time I pack a bag and unpack it it's time to come home," she dismisses such a notion.
The beach, however, is different. She can slip into a sweater and coat, a beret, wooly socks and sport shoes and that's all there is to that. She likes to drive to the beach in her Packard phaeton, but she loathes driving in town.
She lives a curiously comfortable and evenly organized life. She refuses flatly to be rushed. Time, as time, has little significance. She is usually late for appointments, but to any voiced complaint she retorts above her surprise :
"What is half an hour more or less?"
Yet, irrelevantly enough, she is religiously prompt for studio calls. If she happens to be a few minutes late, she apologizes to her director and to the company.
Most everything of moment that she has done in her life has been done on a "hunch." She is strongly intuitive and psychic to a distressing extent at times. She is highly strung. A little incident may set her nerves awry. Her nervousness is inward. To the obvious glance, she is cool as a cucumber always.
An intriguing personality, Evelyn Brent. A curiously lonely personality with a littlegirl love for life and a natural woman's realization of its callousness. At moments, a cynic; atother moments, an optimist. Moody. Fascinating depths. The genius of "wearing well" when her interest has been stirred. A straightforward down-to-earth attitude toward existence and people. Restless, nomadic by temperament, stationary by necessity. A onehundred-percent person to have as a friend !
Truth About Cosmetics— Continued from page 94
Coty's different perfumes and its cost depends upon which perfumes you select. You can get a very nice assortment for $5.00 or if you want to be careless with your change you can pay $10.00 or $15.00 for it. Again, something grand for gift giving, for bridge prizes, and to lead young men up to when they are having a bad attack of generosity.
Coty also has a new indelible lipstick — priced one dollar or one fifty, depending upon the case. It is a swell lipstick, really indelible, and not so sticky as lots of the indelible kind are. Coty guarantees that it isn't made with aniline dyes, which is important, and that it won't wrinkle the lips. The more expensive case is a flat, modernist one, very chic if you can afford it. As I got mine free, that is the one I instinctively selected.
Somebody wrote in to me and told me I seemed enthusiastic about most things. I'm not. But the ones I don't care for in a big way I don't write about. So you may draw your own conclusions.
Finally this month a little note of apology. I wrote two months ago that the nice Lydia O'Leary, who invented that miraculous cream that covers ugly birthmarks, was selling the cream for two dollars. That was wrong. The price is three dollars a jar, but at ten times that, for people who need it, I'd consider it a bargain.
The glamorous Constance Bennett divides her movie activities between Pathe and Warner Brothers. Her next picture is "Bom For Love."
