first publication came off the
presses people have been trying
to get in or stay out Of the head

Among the theatrical folk there
is an old saying that you can
say anything about me so long

that is far-fetched, but publicity is
absolutely essential to some pro-
LESSONS. Teddy Roosevelt knew
the trick Of leeping before the
public eye-and Teddy was always
in the headlines. Other noted
men have said and done things
that made them "headliners."
Years ago in q great disaster in
Chicago, the Tribune gave over
it's entire front page to- the publ
cation of names of persons killed
or injured.
People who try to keep out OF

theater with handful of sleepy

yet the entire dozen sat for two
hours of constant chuckling as
the little man went through his
capers.

based on tragedy with inter-

Hale spent most of her life in
Chicago, where she studied voice
and dancing, intending to make
the stage her profession, but al
ways with dreams of Il motion

Entering u Chicago beauty con-
test in 1922, Miss Hale's per

the honor of representing the
Windy City in the Atlantic City
national contest as Miss Chi

a cash prize Of $3.50, which
meant the realization Of her

At Atlantic City she lost in the
competition for the honor of

HE'S QUIT WALKING
ON ALL FOURS

AS the central figure in 1.-THE
Phantom of the Opera" now be-
ing shown at the Rialto, Lon
CLANCY departs from one of his
customs, but retains the other.
Usually in addition to q strange
makeup, the actor Stimulates some
form of physical deformity. AS
1.-THE Phantom" he abandOns the
role of a cripple, but his facial
disguise is far stranger than any
he has donned in the past.
CLANCY approaches a problem
in makeup much as an engineer
approaches a problem in mathe-
mates. He first reads a book
over dozen times, gathering all
the possible ideas and descriptions
of the author, and then proceeds
to lay out plans. He then begins
experimenting on the foundation
of the makeup-tWO or three
basic tricks, and on these he
builds a superstructure of arti-
ficiality.
Lon Chaney's secret is partly
in his thorough knowledge of the
anatomy of the face; he considers
every muscle and every bone
