CLASSIFYING THE "VAMP"

Norma Talmadge, although she is one
OF the youngest of the big stars at the
head of her own corporation, has been
responsible for many innovations in the
dim world.
One of them is her own personal
photographer. who has his studio on her
premises and is ready at any time to
make photographs of this beautiful Sc
lect star for magazines and newspaper
publicity. 1t is also his duty to make

Miss Talmadges extensive wardrobe mt

changes. Her makeup table for diff
ferent characterizations is always at
hand.
Another department Miss Talmadge
has established at the studio which has
proved an aid is a permanent research
department, whose business it is to
look after accuracy of detail. Miss Tai

which will be shown next week at the
Arcadia. This is the photoplay adapta-
ton of Elinor Glyn's novel of the same
name, the scenario having been written
by Catherine Stuart.
Discrimination was exercised in the
selection of cast. In fact, the picture
had been under way for nearly ten
days and virtually all the minor scenes
had been filmed before Miss Calvert 5
leading man was selected.
The word vampire" is in danger of
becoming one OF the most abused or mis-
used words in the English language.
Used in its movie application it signi-
,fies, of course, an adventures of no con
science who seeks to win a mans love
from motives of revenge, of cupidity or
of inordinate vanity.
The injustice of the application is
manifest when the woman concerned
is merely a firt because nature made
her a lively, fun loving girl Of good
heart, barren of evil intent toward the
man she attracts, even though she
would not marry him. In other words
she is a fool, but not a criminal.
Upon the stage and in the motion
picture the genuine vampire has held a
position for years. No vampire of the
screen ever has approached Theda Bara
"a most estimable and amiable woman
In private life--in depicting characters
of this sort. But in her latest photo
play, "a Woman There Was she
enacts the role of an impassioned South
Sea Island princess who is far from a
vampire-though she strives desperately
to win the love of white man. This
picture will be the feature next week
