List to the Camera Man {!
He Knows the Real Inside
Of the Making of Movies

No one ever thinks Of the man who
makes the motion pictures. Yet the
camera man knows moro about them
than any one else concerned in the
technical end Of the work, and he Is q
tyrant in his own way. Constant OBJ
servation has taught him things about
themselves.
Roy P. Overbaugh, who is Billie
Burke's camera man, has this to say
on why beauty does not always make
good on the screen:
"The factors that constitute beauty
are coloring, expression, animation,
proportion and contour. The motion

when 1t come to photographing color.
A girl with beautiful complexion,
clear blue eyes and auburn hair might
be a beauty in real life, but when
photographed might seem to have a
rather muddy complexion, black hair
ana indefinite eyes. Makeup, Of course,
appear smooth on the screen, but it
cannot be compared with the beauty
of pink and white complexion as seen
by the eye. Auburn hair can be made
to appear blond by keeping an alb
normal amount Of light on it.

Points to Remember
In Making Up to Play
In Drama for the Screen

Here are some points to remember
IN screen makeup, as outlined by the
camera men:
Pink, brown, yellow and white make
ups photograph identically, if they are
OF the same relative shades.
An extremely yellow makeup photo
graphs black.
Persons with gold teeth should
"n r them, as they photograph black.
The eyes should only be slightly
darkened.
Amy. one having eyes that protrude
should put some darkening ON the lid
to get deep-set appearance, or thew
will seem to be pop-eyed.
Rouge photographs black, but when
used carefully it makes an actresses
face seem thinner
Brown lines are used to indicate are.
II splash of rouge is used to con-
ceai hump on the nose, hard black
spot is left: The same thing is true in
trying to disguise double chin.
On the stage you can make the lines
OF mouth that naturally turns down
go up by using black pencil. This cant
be done convincingly on the screen.
Rouge should never be put in the
nostrlls for screen work, as it is for
I the stage.
Eyelashes should not be beaded hesy-
NY. Only r. touch Of mascara should
be used, or the effect. is artificial.
Only touch of green or black should
be put around the eyes.
Pink powder is best for screen use.
Light yellow Is tricky, because il too
skin. -s'- VIC
Movie makeup consists of the fol-
lowing: A foundation Of rreaae mint
generally lighter in color than that
used on the stage. Then q thick layer
Of powder, light pink preferred. Only
the smallest amount Of rouge should
be put on the lips. Tho line Of the eye
brow should be lightly pencilad, with
little bit OF mascara on the lashes. Some
brown, black or green should be nut
on the upper lid and shaded down with
grease paint, to give q soft effect.

grown vegetables-all these things the
 busy man of the city needs every now
 and then to take him back to nature,
 and his mind and his body fed upon
 the natural, normal things of life, in-
 stead of unnatural exhilaration through
 stimulants.
 Alcohol instead of helping man-ot
 course 1t buoys him up for the time be-
 ing and makes life look different-pulls
 hlm down and absolutely undermines
 his health before he knows whats hap
 pening. To have clean body and pure
 mind man must take heed of the
 food and drink that he takes Highly
 seasoned foods and highly favored
 drinks are a menace to the constitution
 and should not be indulged in no mat
 ter what the incentive is.
 All this is embodied in the story on
 'Alcohol,' which l am giving out to be learned by the boys and girls of this city, county and state" said Dr. Per
 kins. When the first hundred bows and girls who are to be rewarded with
 one dollar each, have memorlzed the story, all that Is required is that this fact be made known to Dr. F. E. Per- kins, Cumberland Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, with teachers or parents testimony to the fact, and the money will be forwarded as reward for mem- Ory. The IOllOWInS IS the story on AL cchoP to be memorized
 T am aware there Is a prejudice against any man engaged in the manu- fracture of alcohol. I believe from the time it issues from the coiled and pois- onous worm in the distillery until 1t empties into the hell of death, dis honor and crime, that 1t is demoralizing to everybody that touches it. from the source to where it ends. I do not be- leve that anybody can contemplate the l subject without being prejudiced against the crime. All we have to do Is to think of the wrecks on either side of the stream. of the suicides, of the insanity, of the poverty, the destruc- ton, of the little children tugging at tie breasts of weeping and despairing wives asking for bread, of the men of i genius 1t has wrecked. the men strug- l sling with imaginary serpents produced ! by this devilish thing. And when you I think of the jails, of the almshouses, ot ! the asylums, of the prisons, and of the l scaffolds on either hand, I do not won der that every thoughtful man is preju- diced against the vile stuff called alco- hol. lntemperance cuts down youth in 1 it's vigor, manhod in it's strength, and age in its weakness It breaks the l fathers heart, bereaves the dotine mother, extinguishes natural affection l erases conJugal love, blots out filial at | tachment and blights parental hope and brings premature age in sorrow l to the grave.

A Feat of Memory

My object in offering one hundred dollars to one hundred boys and girls
 one dollar each-who memorize the story on Alcohol" which will be re-
 produced in this story, is mainly to bring the attention of the children who will be the important citizens of the next generation to the fearful and evil effects of whisky on the mind, the health, and the morale of the eommun- ity. and specifically on the individual" Dr. F. E. Perkins, who is prominently identified with Birmingham's best citi- zcnship not only professionally, but in church circles, being one of the most valued members of the Cumberland Presbyterian church, made the forego-
 ine statement yesterday in speaking of
 his offer to the boys and girls of this community, county, and state,
 Dr. Perkins does not limit his offer
 to the school children of Birmingha
 and vicinity, but to those throughout
 the state. the only requirement that
 Dr. Perkins makes being the fact that
 a teacher or parents must testify to
 the fact that the boy or girl who says
 he has memorized the lines must in
 reality have done SO
 pr. Perkins, who has lived in Bir-
 mingham all his life, his family being
 one of the most prominent and influen- | Ildi Tn the pioneer WOrk that mas mdQo Alabama the glorious old state that she
 is. is great believer in right living
 and proper teaching.
 Alcohol is one of the deadliest en-
 eniies of the mind, the heart, and the
 soul" Dr. Perkins said in referring to
 the story on "A1cohol," which he is put
 ting into the hands of every boy and
 girl in Alabama through the medium
 of the newspapers. Tt is well known
 scientific fact that four-fifths of the
 human organism is composed of water,
 and that water, properly taken, is the
 greatest natural eliminator of impuri-
 ties, and therefore the most effective restorer of health. Good, pure freestone water, slipped slowly (not while eating) lis readily and thoroughly assimilated, flushes the entire system, and in this way rids it of any disease germs Good water, pure air and wholesome food are the prerequisites of good health. Any enc not enjoying good health and all its pleasures will acquire these by chewing their food properly and par taking unstintedly of the two most plentiful elements-good water and pure air

serve the same purpose with the par ents of the children, many of whom have seen the disastrous effects of whisky in it's various forms.
 Instead of drinking alcohol" said Dr. Perkins, many a man if he had not taken the deadly poison into his system, but instead had drunk deep of fresh, pure water, would have pro- longed his life. The people of Bir- mingham have within their reach-in less than twenty-five miles of them-a well spring of life in the pure waters from the springs in St. Clair county. believe if more people would go there instead of going to distant places for curative waters, that we'd have fewer sick people here.
