A Correction.

One error occurred in the list oi
divorces given in the Democrat last week
as granted at the October term of court.
1t should have appeared that Ruth L.
Cox was granted divorce from John n
Cox. As given, the names were re.

part OF the Democrat, as the decree from
which 1t was copied was in unusual
form, the divorce having been granted

Movie Beauty Destined to Succeed

Hundreds Of thousands OF dollars are
invested in her name alone.
Hence movie producers want a
star to safeguard her health. They
prize most the star whose private life
is such that she will serve them
longest on the screen.
This means that every girl, hoping
to make a substantial success in the
movies, must ordain her life with
care.
But there is a supreme morale
without which no movie artist ever
arrived anywhere.
Joy of Work Needed.
What will assure success in film
land?
Whoever has attained stardom ex-
poets to receive this question in
every mail.
There is but one answer to 1t, a
brief one. often an unwelcome one,
because many immature but ardent
fans see a film heroine only as an
exquisite creature fitting daintily
through thrilling love scenes in

lures, asking If the originals are
qualified for camera work.
Some are so charming that she
often wonder why fate directed her
instead Of some other into the world
OF phOtoplay.
Beauty is essential-but beauty Of
face and figure alone will not suf-
fee for enduring success. There
must be beauty OF soul-and this
beauty is achieved by resistance to
the temptations that heset the girl
on her way to stardOm.
These temptations are not neces-
sarily of shadOwland. There are
many outsiders who make it their
avocation to prey upon the girls and
women OF screen or stage. These
seem to think that because a girl
entertains the public, she is public
property.
Strength Of soul usually goes hand
in hand with health of body.
And given a certain amount Of
good looks. Of a kind which will
photograph TO advantage, good
