convention OF the national woman
suffrage association began today and
will continue until the convention
ends, next Wednesday. Prospects
were hat the association would be

Whether the new league Of women
voters will be held to a strictly non
partisan course was a question in
which political observers of the two
major political parties, and the WON

siderable interest.

delegates and their alternates, repre-.
senting 100000 members of sun.

enough any more.
You see, the screen registers everything
and audiences have become sophisticated
and these two facts are responsible for the
change. In the old days little blonde things
with heavenly eyes and their brain in per-
petual state of repose found it fairly easy
to subdue the great American public with
their charms on the silver sheet. But the
public has become wise. Beauty that is
wooden faced isn't enough any more. The
screen develops and the quality of playing
has to develop with it.

When talking about extras" and their
work, Mr. Robertson recalled a recent strike
of extra men and women in the middle of
filming a play. The extras" drove their
81 day wage up to $40 and $12 and the
Goldwyns paid it rather than spoil the pct-
ure. But Mr.. Robertson did not say how the
company was prepared to meet a repetition

"The legitimate stage is the best training

"Other things being equal, intelligence,

Albert f. Smith, president of the Vita

the largest percentage of present day stars,
declared that there are more applicants for
work than ever before. The rise of young
women from obscurity to stardom under his
training has increased tremendously the
crop of aspirants for film honors Many of
the young women who attained fame in the

THAT is why intelligence in players-botn
men and women-is gradually becoming the
most important part of an actors ac-
tress's professional assets The ability to
portray emotions is overlapping the ability
to look like insipid angel. All this is
a reflex Of the movement by which the story
has gradually become the main element in
the photoplay. In days when the story
meant little and the beauty of the star
meant all, the star didn't have to know how
to act 1t wasn't necessary. She or he had
merely to look sweet and handsome and all
was well.
But when you get story with the quality
of 'Earthbound,' by Basil King, or The
Penalty by Gouverneur Morris, you need
more than facial beauty or beauty of form.
You need intelligence, which results in
beauty of expression. And that, after ALL Is
a better and more dignified and more lasting
sort of beauty.
I'VE are fortunate indeed when we find
feminine player who combines both beauty
and intelligence. With the men it is differ
ent. Will Rogers admits that his facial de-
fects equalled by few and exceed by
none and yet the ruggedness of his playing
and the naturalistic trend of his expressions
make him one of the favorite stars of the
country. Good looks still count good deal,
but intelligence wins the day"
