FRANKLIN INSTITUTE Dept. R310 Rochester, N. Y. "When we have regular dinners, I find my men guests respond best to roast beef and Yorkshire pudding ; but all the women like my chopped chicken livers with special sauce. That's my very own special secret !" The dining-room of the apartment opens from the living-room and continues its white walls and dull blue carpet. Here the table was s»t for the buffet supper, lace table-cloth, silver candlelabra and covered dishes. "See, this is the silver set Harry Joe gave me for my birthday !" cried Sally, leading me to the buffet at the side, "I use the champagne cups for flowers — don't you adore peach blossoms set in silver ? I'm simply mad about silver ! Especially old silver. Look, I want you to see this Georgian silver coffee pot my agent found for me in England — isn't it precious ? And the creamer and sugar he found — they don't match exactly because they're not quite so old, but see the inscription !" "To Ellen Sheehan from her sincere friends M. and E. T. " read the tiny letters on the bottom of the sugar bowl. "Makes you wonder what happened to Ellen and her sincere friends," mused Sally, putting them away again. She inspected the good things in the covered dishes and we sampled one or two. "I suppose most Californians know about enchiladas," said Sally, "but perhaps some of the girls in other states don't. This is the way I do it : "Make a dozen very thin pancakes with white cornmeal, 6 inches across. Now make the Mexican sauce, Chili Colorado, which is used in a number of Mexican dishes. Remove the seeds and strings from % pound of dry chili peppers and wash well in plenty of water ; cover with cold water and boil ten minutes ; drain and rub through a colander, add from time to time 2 cups hot water,. pouring through the pep-, per until the pulp is the consistency of cream. Heat 2 tablespoons shortening in a pan and fry in it a clove of garlic ; when the garlic is light brown, remove it and stir in the chili pulp, a teaspoon of grated sweet chocolate, a teaspoon of sugar, teaspoon salt and a tablespoon vinegar. Let simmer five minutes and it will be ready for use. "Have ready a cup of ripe olives chopped fine, 3 hard-boiled eggs chopped, % cup finely sliced young onions, and % cup of grated hard Mexican or Parmesan cheese. Heat y2 cup of shortening in a shallow pan; slip into the hot shortening one of the pancakes and heat through, remove heated pancake and pass into hot chili, then place on hot platter and sprinkle with chopped eggs, olives, cheese and onions, pour spoonful of sauce on and roll up. Place rolled tortillas in a shallow baking pan, sprinkle with rest of chopped ingredients and sauce and heat in a quick oven." Young Master Brown made an entrance from the porch that opens off the sunroom, a bouncing lad of five and a half months, very proud of his two teeth which he exhibited without coaxing. "This young fellow is starving," announced Cookie, his nurse. "I'd better rush his meal to him before he bites somebody with those teeth." Sally and I escorted the heir to his own room, after he had given the covered dishes a suspicious inspection and been persuaded they contained no mush-and-milk. His room was done in palest pink. Two rows of pictures of Sally's friends holding their own small offspring in their arms marched across the wall. On holidays and birthdays, little Harry Joe sends the originals of these infant pictures jolly telegrams of congratulations or good wishes. However, at the moment he wasn't feeling jolly, he was hungry! He broadcast demands for food until it arrived, which showed, Sally said, that he was going to grow up to be an executive like his daddy. "I hear his daddy coming in now," she added. "It must be nearly time for the party. How I wish all Screenland's readers could be our guests in person !" Stars' Temperament? Smoke Screen! Says King Vidor Continued from page 51 n TORMENTS quickly pacified. For efficient help fc^use concentrated ^{jmljftlfM POSLAlVl belittle actors and actresses when I say that most of them suffer from an inferiority complex, but they do. The strutting and pomposity that is usually connected with the actor is not due, as most people think, to a superiority complex. Quite the contrary, they take that means of bolstering themselves up when within their hearts they know they have not got what the general public thinks they have. "After all, you know, most of us are still children at heart, and often in mind. You know how a kid shouts and brags and carries on when he is afraid, yet does not want anyone to know it. Grown-ups are just the same. Actors, especially, for actors have to be emotionally and nervously keyed up far beyond the point of the ordinary man in order to imagine they are the people they are representing in their roles. "Imagine, if you can, an actor who in reality is afraid of physical combat and hardship playing the role of a rough, tough fellow who goes about slapping everybody down. Don't you imagine that actor must be shaking away inside? I knozv he is! Every time he smacks the other man he takes delight in doing it, but is worrying about the blows that are coming his way. So, frequently that actor will start to storm and bluster about the story or the lines or the direction — anything, in order to bolster up courage and make other people believe that in reality he is the rough fellow he is trying to portray. Some people call such a display 'temperament.' I call it a bluff to fool the other fellow. "I remember some years ago making a picture with a very well-known female star. We were out on location. It was a terrifically hot day. The make-up melted off the players' faces time and again. The star took a look at her face in a mirror and saw it did not look quite as well as she thought it should. So she took time out for repairs. Then back to work. The heat kept on and at last the star couldn't seem to do her work as I wanted it. We shot the same scene over and over, and she was worse each time. Suddenly she went into a tirade about the story. It was all wrong. The writer was crazy. I was worse. How could an intelligent person do the things written in the story? Then she ended it all by fainting. Some of the boys carried her into a nearby shed and laid her on the ground. There was no floor. The star suddenly began to sniff. She sniffed again and then rose right out of that faint and started calling everybody names. You see, it was an old, uncleaned pig-pen in which we laid her. Needless to say she went right home. The next day she had apparently learned her part and we patched
