ITFA, the German film-producing
" company, whose productions have
revolutionZed many sides of movie
making has attempted practically
every variety of film possible. says the
Motion Picture Guild. During the
years since tho organization WAS first
formed it's policy has been to expert
ment and try something new contin-
uaily. that no stagnation of ideas or
interest might cnSuc, but yet to make
every film worth while and better
than the last.
That Ufa has succeeded in this en-
deavor is not only proved by the
many productions, q few of which
have reached America. but by the i'm
portation of many of its best minds
and actors to Hollywood. The Motion
Picture Guild, which has brought oyer
several of the better Ufa films, says
most of the companys artistic talent
still remains in Germany. however, as
the beauty of one of it's latest produc.
tions, "At the Grey House." attests.
One of the first motion pictures made
by Ufa was THE Cabinet of Doctor
Caligari," a psychological phantasy
of beauty and terror which needs no
introduction to any film lover, and
which had an incalculable effect on
American films. At the time this
triumph of stylization was being made,
an early example of screen realism,
shattered" was being produced on
the same lot.
Then Ufa turned to historical spec
tacles and character studies, of which
Passion "All for Woman" 1.-The
Loves of Pharaoh" " Peter the Great"
and Deception" are representative.
Psychological dramas had also been
produced in the meantime. Haupt-
manns "Rose-Bernd" serving as a
vehicle for the genius of Emil Jan
nings. and "Nju' and "Tatiana" fol.

Role Ambition of

ALMOST every dramatic actress a

ALMOST every dramatic actress at
some time or other has cherished
a secret ambition to portray The title
role Of Camille" that famous classic
of Alexander Dumas, jr., which be-
came the best known vehicle of Sarah
Bernhard and Eleanore Duse in al
most every city of the world.
Norma Talmadge has now realized
such an ambition in the completion OF
her modern picture version OF Ca

production are all of the present day.

ton of the leading role on the actual
life story of Marie Duplessis. who was
the inspiration of the novelist Dumas.
And her portrayal has been hailed as
notable addition to the most bril-

was seen on the dramatic stage Is
years ago.

AN effective method of stimulating
"A the air mail service. it is said, has
been originated by various stars and
featured players in Hollywood. Here
after requests for pictures of the play
ers, sent by film fans and which are
sent via air mail. will be filled with
out the customary charge of 25 cents
for cost of mailing usually required
by most of the studios.
Since fully $4,000 fan letters are re
ceived every month by film celebrities
it is estimated that the air mail to
Burbank, Calf, will be greatly in
creased
The recent visit to California of
Col. Lindbergh and the arrival just
prior thereto of Art Goebel, winner of
the Honolulu air derby, is the direct
cause of this move to stimulate air
mail and aviation in general. GOebel,
incidentally, recently did some of his
latest work as film flyer with Milton
Sllls in "Hard-Boiled Haggerty."

In its ironicaI and Satirical filings

sumption that woman is the

has Shavian flavor that should
stimulate interest in it.
In the dialogue the author does
not describe a Roman atmosphere

characters speak in a very modern

countered in a Broadway show.

MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

there was 60 or 70 years ago, l doubt
very much that the modern girl
spends as much or more time at her
toilet than did the bellies of the Vic
torian age. The idea of business eff
cheney has penetrated miladyS bou-
doir. so that whatever beauty treat
ments she uses are likely to be short
and to the point. A pure cold cream
or cleansing oil, an astringent lotion,
a powder of the correct texture and
shade, the right color in 1ipStick and
rouge, an eyebrow brush and simple
manicure tools find a place on the
modern woman's dressing table. She
uses them all deity and artfully to
enhance her good points and correct
or camouflage her weak ones
If the increased use of cosmetics
were accompanied by lowering of
physical health there would be a
sound basis for the diatribes leveled
by their elders against our generation
of young women. But this is not the
case. If modern girls use more paint
and powder than their grandmothers
did they also take more active In
terest in athletics and outdoor life.
They understand their own bodies bet
fer and begin early to give their
beauty the care that will preserve it
into middle life.
Along with it's many labor and time
saving inventions modern life imposes
nervous strain on us that was un-
known to past generations. AS con-
sequence the signs of premature ag-
ing-facial wrinkles, falling or fading
hair and stopping figures-make their
appearance at an early age. and un-
less reliable beauty aids are employed
these defects will surely undermine
both the appearance and substance of
youth and health.
