expressive and well set. Color does
not matter if it is deep and clear.
Blue, gray or black eyes may be equal
ly beautiful, If they have depth and
feeling. Expressionless eyes are never
lovely. The brows should conform to
the general shape of the face; for in
stance, arched brows are beautiful on
some faces and straight ones on 9TH
ers. Plucked brows are hideous.
The eyes should be the length of one
eye apart.
2-The nose. 1t should be straight
and well shaped. and slightly indented
where it meets the forehead Its pro
portions should be right for the rest
Of the face-that is, one-third the
length of the face.
3-The mouth. 1t must be beau
tiful both in repose and when smiling
or laughing. The lips should be clear
cut, and neither too thick nor too thin.
They should be healthy in color. The
mouth should be as wide as the eye.
and one and one-half times as long.
A short upper lip is sometimes consid-
cred mark of beauty. but is not
beautiful unless it seems to fit in with
the rest of the features. The teeth

simply have to discount the effect they
gain in this way. Unless a girl is
pretty enough TO appear without any
makeup on at all, she is not likely
to be accepted.
Naturally, l cannot indulge my
personal preferences in this matter
of selecting beautiful girls. 1t does not
matter whether l prefer the classic
type or not. ] may think that a
short upper lip is far more beautiful
than a longer one. but many people
do not think so. So far as it is pos
sible, / must try to represent all types
of beauty in "The Follies."
Therefore the beauty of the girls
whom / select is strongly centrasted.
They come from all over the country,
and they are representative of all
types Of beauty.
It's Hard Work to BE Beauty.
The girl whose beauty and talent
make a place for her in one of my
productions cannot rest on her laurels
once she is in. / believe that we
would see about us every day even
more beautiful women than we do
and the number Is constantly increas-
ing-if women who are not in the pub
lie eye paid as much attention to car
ing for their looks as the girls Of the
stage are forced to pay.
The girl who earns her living on
the stage cannot afford to be tired.
Fatigue shows in her eyes, making
them lose their clearness and creating

could 60 out on the street and not
look any more made up than many OF
the girls whom they passed. do not
believe in the use of a great deal of
makeup. 1t is likely TO make face
expressiOnless. A certain amount is
necessary on the stage, when strong
lights are used, but it is always adj
yisable to use little less than seems
necessary. rather than little more.
1t is difficult to give measurements,
of course. but generally speaking these
are good ones for determining the
beauty of the features.
The head should be from eight and
two-thirds to. nine inches long; this
is the average length. Variations are
not great, and few heads are less than
eight and one-fourth or more than nine
inches long.
The nose should divide the face into
two equal parts. 49,,
A line drawn through the middle
Of the eyes and one drawn through
the bottom of the nose should divide
the face into thirds.
The mouth should be one and one
half times as long rs the eye, and the
eyes should be the length of one eye
apart.
The face should be four times as
wide as the eye is long.
Spare the Maile-up!
OF course in selecting girls for nv
productions l prefer that applicants
appear without makeup. If they come
to me rougcd and much powdered, i

shadows about them. Her complexion
shows the result Of too little rest, and
loses its freshness. Her whole face is
likely to look worn and tired.
Therefore she must get enough rest
which in most cases means that she
must have nine hours sleep every day.
And it must be real sleep, based on
perfect relaxation. The girl who
takcs her troubles into her dreams is
not going TO get the rest she needs.
Exercise is another necessity. That
may seem odd, when the amount of
dancing that Follies girl does il
considered. But even enjoyable exer-
else that comes under the head Of
work does not fill the bill. Long walks,
horseback rides, drives through the
jark. skating, swimming - they sll
produce mental relaxation. which
brings rich dividends in beauty.
The girl who does not get the right
food lets her beauty suffer. The right
nourishment is absolutely essential.
The girl who eats the wrong food,
cats hurriedly, or snatches breakfast
or luncheon or dinner at just any
odd moment, is not going to have the
mental peace which produces beauty.
She may think she is only nervous
but that's not the case. Years of the
atrical experience have taught me that
it's the girls who take trouble to live
in the right way who are the most
beautiful at the end Of the season as
well as at the beginning.

A girl comes TO see me. She is
pretty-at first glance she seems beau
tiful. am inclined TO classify her
thus in my mind.
/ ask her TO sit down and talk with
me. As soon as l can, l switch the
talk from the girl and what she wants

current plays. She is off her guard.
then, to some extent, and Il can see
what she really looks like. Perhaps
at the end of three minutes | know
that she is not really beautiful, but
merely pretty.
That is because she lacks intelli-
gence.
Always the Same.
Every time she looks up her face
Is the same. After the first glance
you have seen all there is. She may
have regular features, charming
smile, q beautiful complexion. But her
face makes just one picture, the one
you see when you first look at her.
If girls face is not intelligent. II
is not beautiful. 1t is only a pretty
mask There may have been a day
when the sweet little thing who had
no brains had her place on the stage;
/ never selected girls of this type for
one of my productions, and l never
shall. To me they are not beautiful.
They have no personality. and no girl
is beautiful if she lacks that.
Not only is an unintelligent girl
not beautiful: she is not adaptable.
She cannot think on the stage. She
may learn a certain routine, but she
cannot throw herself into the spirit
of it. More than once l have refused
to engage a girl who seemed TO be
beautiful according to the opinions Of
many. but who was rather stupid.
Famous beauties have been famous
for their charm and intelligence as
well as for their looks. Everyone
who knew Lillian Russell appreciated
her intellect. Her intelligence was one
of the things that made her beauty
last. The girl who is really intelli-
gent has a buoyancy that makes her
beauty alive. She seems to fit into
any number which I may plan. just as
she would fit into any situation off the
stage. because her imagination is keen
enough to put her into the scene and
make her adapt herself to ii. and to
the costume which she wears for it.

Unless a girl possesses this power of
adaptation she will never make

special numbers in which unusual cos

look well in one kind Of clothes and be
quite unable to wear any other kind.
She is not a real bueaty, but is only
pretty. Real beauty can dominate any
costume, and adapt itself to it.
The girl who is not intelligent is
likely to be conscious of her looks.
She has them in the back of her mind
all the time. That detracts from her
charm, of course, and also from her
looks. Beauty must be neutral. not
stilted and aware of itself. When n
girl looks out at the audience she must
not be thinking of herself and of
how she looks, but Of the thing
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1924-03-09

which she is doing at the moment.
She must be doing that thing be-
cause she wants to, and enjoys doing
it, just as child enjoys playing If
she's engaged in thinking about her
appearance, she loses the spirit Of
play.
l have seen beautiful girls whose
looks did not conform to any of my
rules except this one, that intelligence
and personality are absolutely neces-
sary. They had the appearance of
beauty. and gave to those who saw
them the impression that they were
beautiful. And so / would advise the

girl who is eager to be as good looking
as possible to seek perfect health, and
to develop her mind by reading and OBJ
servation. Many girl who hates to
go to school would ike it if she felt
that study was aiding her in heT
search for beauty.
OF course intelligence and person
atty cannot make a beautiful girl by
themselves. There are certain require
ments which girls face must meet
if she is to be termed beautiful.

Boston, Sept. 9.-Massachusotts voters prepared to- go. to the polls today to choose republican and democratic candidates.in the pri- maries, who will run for state and national office in the election in November.
 With a strong contest on for the republican nomination for United States senator and contests for a number of state offices, 1t was ex- pected that a heavy republican vote would be boiled, An almost total absence of contests in the demo- cratic primaries, excepting that for licutepant governor, in the territory outside of Boston, indicated a light democratic turnout.
 Interest in the republican primary contered chiefly in the contest for nomination for United States sena- tor in which three candidates, Speaker Frederick H. Gilett of the national house of representatives, Congressman Frederick w. Dallinger

"It's the same thing" the cor porstion counsel replied, There's no magic in the word ordinance"
 In effect the corporation coun- sel ruled that the salary was in- creased by resolution and no ordinance would have been neces- sary. In view of what he oonsid- cred was a second action on the original matter, once passed and not vetoed within the specified time, he found that the ordinance could not now be vetoed.
 Councilman stephen A. Lynch questioned tho soundness of the ruling by the city's legal advisor. He claimed the mayor had the right to veto any ordinance, bas- ing his argument upon Section ', Page 45 of the city charter, which reads as follows:
 Every vote, resolution. order, or ordinance passed by said common council, shall be submitted to the mayor in writing for his approval, and, If such vote, resolution, or- der, or ordinance shall be tlisap- proved by him at its next meeting. whether an adjourned, regular or special meeting, with the objec- tions thereto in writing, and If two-thirds of the members of the entire common council shall again pass such vote, resolution, order or ordinance, the same shall be valid as if the same had been approved by the mayor"
