Pearls i'm New Bridal Headdresses

"Sumptuous simplicity" and a so

And in this the task Of arranging
the bridal veil differs from the crea-
ton of an evening headdress or the
designing of belt. Here one can
work out an effect that is amusing,
coquettish. piquant, or one of mock
occurrences. But the wedding head
dress must be taken more seriously.

the theatrical.

indispensable ingredient of the we'd

am not an especially hearty eater.
Between meals I don't spend much
time thinking about my next repast.
Still there are a few articles of food
that l am always glad to see placed
before me. L want to say just now
that most men have a liking for car
tain dishes because they liked them
when they were boys and the liking
has always lasted. Sometimes tbey
are country dishes. sometimes they
might be called city dishes. 1t de-
ponds on where the boy was brought
up. But always he remembers them as
FAR back as he remembers ANYTHING.
The dishes / shall mention are Of
the country or home cooking" sort
First. here is fried pork, served
w WI poled potatoes with their skins
OF, ana cream gravy. The pork
should have delicate rind and he
fried crisply and the potatoes should
be SOFT and mealy. The cream gravy
Is made as follows: Add milk and a
little hour to the fat OF the pork in
over the pork and potatoes when serv,
ing. This is. properly, a breakfast
dish
Another fried pork dish deserving
nlgh respect. think. is made by using
fried apples with the pork Instead
of potatoes and cream gravy. The
apples should be fried in slices in
the fat and juices of the pork.

my memory spicy odor and l call I'm
picture familiar to my boyhood-

The ones I mean have to be made o :

1t was because of them that she

of them that she drove us out into

what might have happened had
Mother Bear caught him in under
that old windfall. He was thankful
that she had returned just when she
did. He was still jealous Of those
new babies. You see. it didn't enter
his funny head that those new babies
were relations of his. To him they
were just little strangers who had
driven him and Woof-Woof away
from their mother.

beaten with one pound of sugar.
Cook all together to a soft custard,

cold. Freeze very rapidly and serve
either plain or with sweet cream

The Diary of Professional Movie Fan
The Movies Do Not Give the Midas
Touch ANY More.

You remember the good old four
teen karat legend Of King Midas, who.
when granted any wish he might
choose to make, wished that every
thing he touched might turn to gold
and everything did, including. if my
memory serves me rightly, his small
beloved daughter.
Well. with some slight transposing
here and there. that is what great
many folks, girls. boys, veterans CT
al. thought that the movies might do
for them, once they had the open
sesame. either to act in them. direct
them. write for them or produce them.
But Allan Dwan says, mo. Not
any more He said this quite recent
ly. while he was directing the Para
mount picture. "Glimpses of the
Moon,' from Edith Whartons novel
of the same name.
"Most people" Mr.. Dwan said. look
ing wise behind the fog smoked
glasses he wears about the studio, to
avoid ,Klieg eyes, I suppose, seem to
think that they can walk right into
the front door of a motion picture
studio and be an expert in photoplay
building or a knock -out in photoplay
acting.
They seem to think that the whole
trick lies in getting past that first
revolving door.
But they are wrong. 1t is a long,
hard struggle TO the top in motion
picture directing or writing or acting,
just exactly in the same proportion
as it is d long, hard struggle to get
to the top of any profession.
Right now, the motion picture
business is harder to break into than
ever before.
In these days. when hundreds of
thousands of dollars are being spent
for productions, there is less tend
ency to gamble than there was in the
old days when a feature picture could
be made for $4,000. and there
wouldn't be more than a couple of

sOURCE-A locality.
There has been some controversy
over the origin OF this clan name of
the Highlands, some claiming that 1t
was originally derived from the name
Of d chieftain, and others that the
clan took its name from a place
name. The evidence appears to sup
port the latter view.
The tradition is that the founder of
the clan came from Germany at the
time of the Emperor Ohio. However
that may be. there is historical record
that King Malcolm ii of Scotland con-
ferred a barony on one Robert de
Keith for his victory over the Danish
invader Camus, in a battle fought
at Barry, near Dundee.
The keiths were not a full fledged
cIan, however, but rather a sept of
the Clan MACPHERSON, which later be-
came allied with the Clan Sutherland
also, through marriage. The Gaelic
appellation of the clan is Clam Cal 4"
The name Keith is apparently de-
rived from the territory of that name,
So-called from the Gaelic "gaoth"
pronounced "geeth"D and meaning
wind" This supposition is borne out
by the fact that the old village and
church were called "Arkeith" card

wind" and as a matter of fact high
