Lovely Star Of Enemy
Of Men, Al.Days Studies

Beauty is not the only factor
to succeed before the camera"
according to beautiful Dorothy
Revier, star of the Waldorf pro-
duction, the first of which
Enemy Of Men," shows at the
Strand Theatre tomorrow.
Beauty, ! admit, may be the
means of entry the lovely star
explained, "but hard work is a
great factor, il not the biggest in
determining success. No matter
what an individual producer might
think, the public is always the
judge.
IF the fans do not care for the
work of any particular star, moth
ing viii take them into the
theatres playing his or her pic
lures. Directors realize this fact
today, and they spend consider
able effort in bringing out their
stars particular abilities by OBJ
tanning stories for them which will
be most suitable for their tenn
permanent.
"Then, it means hard work
every day at the studio, and hard
study during the evening, visiting
the picture theatres TO see the
work of other stars. If the public
has an idea it is all play, the pub
lie is greatly mistaken" she con-
cluded.
In Enemy of Men," Miss Re-
vier has the role of a self
sacrificing sister who battles to
help her ''baby" sister. The two
girls are orphans. Because of the
Irresistible beauty of the elder,
many men WOO her. But because
her sister suffers a great mis-
fortune through one of them, the
beautiful sister sets out to make
all men pay heavily.
Frank Strayer directed this
production from a story by Doug
