liner that had narrowly missed an iceberg; her only memory of it is a VlV1d mind-pfcture of a stranded po- lar bear which aroused her pity. She narrowly missed sailing on the Titan ic's first and last voyage.
 Miss Percy left the stage shortly af- ter the death of her mother-who had asked her to do so, feeling that young girl without maternal pro- lection. Realizing fully what it meant to give up her career, Miss Percy handed her resignation to F1orenz Zeigfeld. What should she do now?
 Then In The Pictures"
 Her lucky star or her guardian angel happened to be very watchful at that moment, and whispered a word Janis whispered in the ear of Miss Percy: Why don't you go into pictures? I'll introduce you to Doug las Fairbanks
 Within a few weeks Eileen Percy was Douglas Fairbanks leading wom- man. That was three years ago. She was with Fairbanks in six pictures. Then on a trip to New York, she was invited to return to the Fol1ies at much higher salary than she ever had received. She said she would think it over and returned to the coast. A month later she gave her decision; she would stick to pictures.
 She made. three pictures with Will liam Russell, two with Bert Lytell, two with Robert Warwick, one with Sessue Hayakawa, one special 1all-star with Ben Hampton, and a serial with Pathe. Her first appearance und CT the Fox banner was with William Russell in 'Leave it to Me- and her work in this was so good that she was raised to the rank of star imme- diateIy and given the leading role in Her Honor the Mayor
 Miss ercy is very preaty-perhaps the prettiest ingenue in pictures. She is a, perfect blonde, with large blue grey eyes and piquant features, very light hair and a peach complexion. She is feet inches tall and weighs 126 pounds, has unusual poise for girl Her costuming is exquisite; she dresses all her roles with good taste, and richly.

Constance Binney has a cute little profile. with a tiny nose and a little top-knot of dark brown hair She always dresses her hair simply, and it is becoming that way.
 Constahce, like her sister, Faire, is a regular girl. She lives in a regular house right off Lex ington avenue, New York. has a regular mother, and had a regu- lar father, now dead. In fact, her father was so regular that he fought against her stage am- for she loved to dance and the life of the footlights was the only life she wanted to think about.
 But even though father object ed strenuously, Constance had a mind of her own and a will of her own, and proceeded to use them both- Thus, she landed just where she wanted to be, finally getting to be solo dancer in "Oh, Lady, Lady," then, di- vine moment, as star in Rachael Crothers' "39 East.'' Her first screen appearance was in Sporting Life,'' following this as lead in ''The Test of Honor,' marked her debut as a star.
 Miss Binney is a tiny thing, only five feet two in height, weighs only 110 pounds, and her hair (see above) and eyes are both dark
 It's too bad Constance hasn't a hat on-for she makes them all herself. and you might see just how well she does it.

On the stage Eileen wore silks and satins, but on the street she was just a little school girl. with her hair in curlS and her clothes chosen for neat ness and good wearing quality. This strict upbringing taught her a good rule of life. Today she insists on eight hours sleep in twenty-four. Her friends tell her she ''queers parties'' when she goes home at eleven o'clock; but on the other hand her director tells her she is the least temperament al star he ever met-and that is more than sufficient recompense for the lack of so-caIled gaiety. Some stars cost almost as much their salary in time wasted through tardiness at the studio, but not Miss Percy; she is always on time.
 But do not imagine Eileen Percy's childhood as a hard one. There were no real hardships, but many sacrifices. She never looked upon the lack of luxury and extravaganza as a hard ship, and her mother was very kind and considerate, doing all she could to make Eileen and the other children happy.
 When Eileen was Il, and just be- ginning to earn a, living, her brothers were IS F, 12 and F years, and her sister was 815
 If hard work is a hardship, Eileen suffered it, of course; bul. she didn't rank it as a misfortune, At one time she was singing ana dancing on the Century roof at night, appearing in all eight numbers; acting in 'The Man Who Came Back in the even ing and studying piano and dancing with her tutor during the day. But this she enjoyed, for she was laying the foundation for a career.
 There never was a lapse between engageme ents. As soon as 'tThe Blue bird'' ended its run Eileen joined t'The Arab" and immediately after that enga cement she joined '"The Lady of the Slipper" with Elsie Janis for the New York and Boston runs.
 Eileen and her mother were in Ger many at the outbreak of the war, and had to leave in a, hurry. Crossing the ocean, their ship was shot at sev- eral times. But this was not her first thrilling sea experience. Once, when a tiny girl, she had been on a
