Instantly all the ugly gnomes were

CONFESSIONS
OF A MOVIE
STAR
CHAPTER XLIII
A NEWSPAPER WOMAN INTER
VIEWS ME.

A GIRL reporter sent up card
and ended our discussion of
Hutchinson Coleridge.
Interviews with me are often ar
ranged by Mandy, our publicity man,
but many reporters come without his
knowledge or permission. At such
times | send for Motherdear. | never
can get used to the idea that the
public cares penny ABOUT what's
going on in my head.
| screwed up my courage to meet
the newspaper woman. My mind
was still muddled by my recent talk
with Motherdear. One principle of
mine, however, had been reinforced:
never, never intended to fall in
love. I'd never go in for an emotion
as unstable as that. 1t was destined
from the beginning to pass. 1t did
pass, in many Of the lives knew
best.
If only / could tell that to the nice
young woman who had come for my
opinion about something-anything
what sensation her story about
me would make!
The newspaper girl couldn't see
why certain types of business women
should be continually linked up with
a certain type of transient romance.
The bunch had come from her man
aging editor, apropos of big divorce
sensation. She had been assigned to
ask stenographers, movie artists,
show girls, woman physicians and
nurses what they thought about it.
And she. appealed to me as a girl
who had never been engaged!
Motherdear rather liked the stunt.
Fortunately, she could give the girl
reporter Victorian background
upon which to project her modern
pen picture.
In Motherdear's girlhood, the cir
Gus riders were almost the only
ladies who enjoyed spiced publicity.
And Motherdear remembered how
her cicuses had been spoiled forever
by the hint that the lovely ladies in
fluffy tarleatan skirts were not al
ways the delicate fairy things they
seemed. That was, she said, her ini-
tiation into disillusionment!
While the reporter made a note or
two, Motherdear regarded me Curl
ously, seriously. Did she fancy my
time had come-to be disillusioned?
As to the reason why certain
sentimentality is linked up to certain
professions for women, Motherdear
summed it thus:
"Propinquity" t
''And I guess that covers itr
agreed the reporter.
Opportunity for flirtationsp
Motherdear continued. "In offices or
occupations where men and women

INFORMING OUR SPEAKERS

lWE frequently hear references To-
cally to the relative wealth of
counties in the United States. But
rarely do we hear such reference
authenticated. Now comes the u. S
Department of Agriculture and up
sets the dope" Of the fifty lead
lrg counties in the United States in
1919, measured in value of farm pro-
ducts, Georgia did not have even one.
Los Angeles county's farm products
on account of citrus fruits and Eng
lish walnuts, and the State of Cali
fornia led all the rest by wide mar
gin--California which has not any,
thing like the natural resources of
Georgia other than the will and abil-
ity of her people to develop what she
has. Says a recent bulletin by the
Department of Agriculture:
Citrus fruits and walnuts have
placed Los Angeles County, Cali
fornia, first in rank of all counties
of the country in the value of agri-
cultural products, according to the
Bureau of Census, which has lust
made public list of the SO counties
leading all others in 1919 in the
worth of their agricultural products
Hay and forage are also important
crops which helped swell the total of
Los Anfeles county's farm products
to $71,579,899 in value that year.
Next to Los Angeles county cones
Fresno county, also in California, the
value of whose grapes, peaches, hay,
ana forage and dairy products is
placed at $55,110,101 for the year.
A. ostook County, Me-, large pro-
Queer of potatoes, ranks third, its
products totaling S54,376,256. Fourth
place is occupied by San JOAQUIN
County, Calf, whose crops were
worth $41,l91,240 in the year. Pc
tatoes, grapes, barley, and hay and
forage, in the order named, consti.
tuted the principal agricultural pro-
duts of that county.
Lancaster County, Pa, whose
leading crop was tobacco, was fifth
with products valued at $40,776,212;
Yakima, Wash, with apples leading
the list of farm products, with sixth
place; Tulare, Calf, with grapes as
the first product, seventh; and Son.

THE SECOND GOLDEN RULE
SALE.

THE second Golden Rule Sale in
Americas has come and gone,
and as a result the till of Ameri-
Gus merchants have considerably
more cash in them, in the aggregate,
than they otherwise would nave had
at this time. Not all merchants
shared alike in the patronage. And
not all had offers alike or of equal
pulling power.
This community sale idea is new
for Americas merchants, aud they
haven't yet all gotten the hang of
it or the big idea behind it. But they
are learning. They want to make it
a BIG SUCCESS and they are will
ing to go any length to make it such,
but they don't all seem yet to have
grasped the method.
In the first place, it is the little
article, involving little cash to buy,
that is the big attraction these days.
A large article, be the value ever
so good, catches the we of only the
few; the small and cheap household
article that everyone needs and uses
interests everybody and attracts ev-
erybody. The store that did by far
the biggest business in Americas yes
terday made a special offer of thread
at low price. 1t appeared every
body bought thread, and the clerks
on the thread counter of that store
were exhausted when night came and
glad a rush day was over.
The price was three spools for
dime. A real bargain, but no better
in value, probably, than any other
offer in the whole list But it cost
the shopper only 10 cents to take adj
vantage of the offer, and this was
the big pulling point. Steel pins at
a cent or two paper, or thousand
other household articles at equally
small prices would have had a similar
pulling power And the thread buy
ers did not stop at buying thread, but
this store did bigger business than
Saturday, which was a very good
Saturdays business. If this merchant
lost money on his thread his loss was
infinitesimal.
The merchants have learned con-
siderably from two sales. This see
ond event was better than the first.
And its cost was insignificant. Every
member of the advertising club
should make preparations at once :or
the third sale, which will comG jan
uary 2, and make it the bigges' of
the three by q wide margin. They
can if they Will.
