TANTRUMS DUE
FOR CATE IN
MOVIE COLONY
Star SnifferS of Perfume
Find Hard Shedding,
SChenCk Says.
BY DUANE HENNESSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent

HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Dec. g.
Stars who have tantrums when the
proper kind of perfume is not
waited onto the set for exotic scenes
and directors who rage when third
assistants do not have the extras
ready until 9:O1 a. m. are doomed
in Hollywood.
Take it from Joseph M. Schenck,
head of United Artists Pictures,
that temperament and bad man
ners are synonymous and people
with bad manners don't succeed in
any line of business"
Slip to Oblivion
"Pick out the famous and sue
cessful film figures of ten years ago
and you will find that the ones still
at the top are calm, cheerful men
and women" the man who has
guided many truly great stars said
Many of the 'temperamental type
have slipped into oblivion"
The Shedding for so-called tenn
peramental people has been grow
ing rougher and rougher in the film
colony with the advent of talking
pictures. With every company re-
cruiting new faces and proven voices
from the speaking stage, tempera-
ment is becoming a rare gesture.
1.-THE people who win lasting sue
cess are too intelligent to be tenn
peramental," Schenck declared.
Lubitsch Calm
"I have neved heard of people like
Mary Pickford, Doug Fairbanks or
Ernst Lubitsch, to cite few, losing
their tempers, no matter how big
the problem. They are courteous to
everybody, on and off the set, and
are the first to see the other per-
sons viewpoints when difficulties
arise.
1.-THE other day I was watching
Lubitsch direct a scene. There were
hundreds of people on the set,
everything seemingly in confusion.
There was some trouble with the
lighting and orders were being
shouted from all quarters.
Some of the directors assistants
were running around and seemed
much excited. But not LubitSch. He
was the calmest person on the set"

DANGEROUS GERM SPREADERS

Every person afflicted with cold
becomes a germ spreader. An old
health officer says he had rather be
shot with a pistol than take cough
or sneeze in the face. To arrest an
oncoming cold, absolutely stop
coughing, take Foleys Honey and
Tar Compound, a incidentally scien-
tific, carefully compounded cough
remedy, every ingredient of which
is active and potent. No opiates, the
ideal family medicine. Ask for it.

He recited the story of the public works department probe. and called on Councilman Bartlett to tell the public whether he stands on the record of the present administration or repudiates it.
 If he is willing to stand on the record of the past two years, then your duty is clear: if he does not. then by silence he places himself on record as condoning the acts of the past two years. and again your duty is clear" the lawyer argued.
 The Paonessa administration was one >of good highways. stabilized taxes, beautiful parks. honesty and efficiency in government and gener- al satisfaction. the speaker said, and contrasted the republican rule which, he forecast, would be one of machine politics, meddling in city governments by party bosses and eXtragance
