PHOTOPLAYS AND

Donaldson Tells Why
He Changed All His
Features To Build
Up a Character.
BY GARDNER MACK.

There have been many Interviews
with actors and actresses regarding
various phases of the wcik they are
called upon to do In motion pictures.
but few OF them have been quoted
regarding the matter Of makeup.

motion picture work. II is so entire

on the stage. end the poor appear
sn,e OF many stage stars the hrst
time they plav a motion picture en-
gagemcnt can frequently be traced
to their lack OF knowledge Of photo

The INSTALLATION Of . character
makes necessary the most detailed
cases. And the method OF makeup
must be very carefully worked out
or the iinc eve Of the camera will lay
bare its flaws. 1t therefore happens
that makeup becomes, most IN

Up OF extreme Importance.
Arthur Donaldson. OF the i.hbin

little celebrity among his profession-
al friends through an example Of
makeup used by him In neH
photoplay called The Ghost Of Twin
Of neRro of q fanatic sect. He
completely changed his features for
the character, and many Of his most
intimate friends--actors themselves.
too--could not believe that Mr. Don
aldson actually PLAYED the part.
The puzznng part of that make
up is the teeth" said he. 1T Is very
difficult for me to convince my
friends that this character Is really
myself. They ask me to open my
mouth and show my teeth. which do
not at all agree with the teeth and
are false. / made them myself in
the laboratory OF friend OF mine
who is a dentist. From ueutai
supply house had him get me
some very large teeth. Then with
that particular dental wax that
hardens soon after heat iesves 1t.
] made a soft fundaton over my
teeth In the wax while II was yet
warm. This set of false teeth
changed the appearance of my mouth
considerably, because they not only
protruded. but they stretched my
mouth so much that had difficulty
in speaking.
The width and hatness OF the
nose Is another feature that puzzles
my friends. To get this result
took 3 couple OF small nuts. re-
sembling scorns. and followed them
out A hole was drilled in each for
breathing purposes. and inserted
the nuts In my nostrils.
The high cheek bones l obtained
by first building a support composed
OF ordinary cotton stuck on with
spirit gum. Over this | spread nose
putty and worked it into the cotton

mass. then smoothed 1t on and
