Grease Paint Actor s Aid

MANY people who go to motion pic
lures have asked why the actors
use SO much makeup. Is 1t neces-
sary?
Tom Moore answers the questions.
Makeup is necessary-and also, 1t
isn't. Moore has played before the
camera both with" and without
But, having tried the without make
up" standard. he has returned to the
use of grease paint as the actors
first aid.
In days not long gone by, when
Moore was playing the typical irish
character, such as in Hold Your
Horses" he would give realistic tone
TO his characterization by working
without the aid of grease paint, pow
der and eye-pencil. But now. since
he is a romantic leading man In
lover the Border" Penrhyn Stan
laws latest production, Mr.. Moore
carries a full makeup kit.
For the screen actor" he says
makeup refines the features. IL
there are any natural blemishes In
the complexion, grease paint removes
them and presents an unblotched
facial surface to the light.

the countenance. All of which is
we'll enough in the case of a rough
elemental-perhaps a strictly out-of

where a character must sustain ro-
mantle interest, makeup helps,
"Over the Border" is by Albert
Shelby LeVino, based on short story
of Sir Gilbert Parker's, and deals
with the activities Of rum-runners

The Hunt for Novelty:

THE search for novelty in photoplay
achievement is unceasing and re-
lentless. Anything that promises
novelty. either in theme or in the
physical manner Of its presentation. is
valued more than rubies, and much of
the work Of photoplay manufacture
centers in this search for something
new under the photopIay sun.
Since the days when the motion
picture was largely a mechanical toy
and the chief thrill was inherent in
the mere spectacle of photography in
motion, much water has gone under
the bridge, and thousands of improve
ments have been made in the business
Of merely projecting. in moro realistic
fashion, the photoplay negative upon
the screen.
George Beban. the vaudeville and
picture star, however, it is said. has
conceived and developed q photoplay
novelty which, while strictly limited In
its scope, Is nevertheless fascinating.
Beban's novelty is his method Of pre-
senting a drama in both screen and
stage form without the slightest
pause in the action or continuity,
while the story merges from screen
form to stage form and then back

Beban is presenting here this week,

is a stage-screen story which not
only utilizes the projection booth
but a cast of players headed by Beban
himself. The story begins as a pic
ture. The first two reels are un-
wound on the screen. and there is
nothing to distinguish it from any
other photoplay. Suddenly. in the
middle of the action, the screen is
whisked into the flies of the theater.
the darkness Of the playhouse is
bathed in the footlight glare. and
Mr.. Beban and his players are. re-
vealed carrying on the story on the
stage, in a setting and with charac-
ters precisely the same as those seen
in the film
For some twenty-five minutes this
stage action continues, when sud
denly the theater is again darkened,
the lights die. out on the stage, the
screen descends from above, the
camera takes up the story without
an appreciable pause and carries it
forward to a conclusion.
Naturally the most careful CO.
ordination between stage and pro-
lection booth is necessary to preserve
the illusion of the story and to pre-
vent it stepping" to use the theater
term, "out of character" The action.
however, is said to be minutely syn
chronized in both locations, and
audiences everywhere have found it
a source of new delight in the
