ChiIdren's Color Preferences
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Even small babies are sensitive to the
colors they wear-more so than most
mothers realize-and the child of 2 or 3
is often quite cutspoken in his color
preferences. His fondneSS for red or
shades of rose may be as pronounced
as his fondness for something sweet
and perhaps an overindulgence in his
taste for this bright color might be as
bad for his nerves as an overindugence
in his taste for sweets.
Undoubtedly the fondness that most
children have for gay colors is symp-
tom of their boredom with the ever
lasting white of their infancy. Mothers
like to see their young children dressed
in white because it is usually becoming
to the clear skins and eyes of little folk
and because they know full we'll that
the sight of a child dressed always in
immaculate white betokens a commend
able amount of attention from mother
or nurse. The child dressed in spotlesS
white always carries with him an init
nation of good breeding.
But nowadays all sorts of bright colors
have come into the picture for children
as we'll as for adults. Dresses that must
be washed after each wearing are more
practical when pure white, but outdoor
things may we'll be of a more colo.ful
sort Shades of rose are usually more
becoming than crimson or scarlet.
Green is always becoming to the fair
child, and a clear. bright blue is usually
as becoming to the broWn-eyed young
ster as it always is to the child with
blue eyes Beige. though a so-called
neutral color. is becoming and decidedly
smart for outdoor apparel of the child
of 3 or 4.
There are number of easy new
reedleWork stitches that are just as eff
fective as the old-fashioned sort that
took many times as long to do. This
weeks circular shows how to do num-

astringent. such as witch-hazel or the
following lotion: Three ounces cucum-
Der juice, five ounces elderfiower water:
two ounces cologne water, one-half
ounce simple tincture of benzoin, one
half teaspoonful borate of soda. Put
the first two together into a bottle,
shake we'll and then add the cologne
water. Add the benzcin drop by drop,
shake again and dissolve the borate of
soda in the solution.
Mix we'll. Apply with a piece of
clean absorbent cotton. Keep the To-
ton in a handy place and use it after
washing and drying the face or after re-
moving cream. 1t may be used during
the day before you apply fresh face
powder at noontime.
~ Slouching sitting posture and in
correct walking posture are responsible
not only for round shoulders and fiat
chest. but for poor circulation, the
cause of sallowneSs and many other
complexion troubles. You should take
ten minutes every morning for special
exercises that will bring into play the
chest. arm and shoulder muscles. They
will stimulate the circulation and rene
dy your other beauty problems.
Here is a good exercise for you to
do several times a day: Stand erect,
with one foot slightly in the rear of the
arms over head: rise up on your
for ten or twenty counts. Slowly lower
the arms downward by swinging them
outward and downward. eXhaling. EX-
hale AS much air as possible. SO that

How can l remove it without leaving a

Answer-The average weight for

Have your physician remove the mole
for you. 1t is not wise to try to remove
It yourself: to do so may cause an in
lection. It can be removed successfully
under medical supervision, so that there
will be very little or no scar.

MOVIES AND MOVIE PEOPLE
BY MOLLIE MERRICK.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
HOLLYWOOD, Calf, October 81
Anguish has hit Hollywood with the
flop of the stock market. Members
of the picture colony who have been
specializing in the market as a Zestful
comes are plunged into gloom.
Any number of the big boys of Holly
wood are said to have been sheared
and estimates of individual losses go as
high as 100000 or 100000.
But it is a dark cloud that has no
silver lining. The only ones who seem
really relieved are the directors on the
various lots. They have had serious
trouble during the last week keeping
the minds of the little fellows on their
work. Many-very many-of these
small financiers were disturbed over the
endurance of their margins.
Coming simultaneously with lofty
tumbling on the New York Stock Elk
change, as what it is hoped may have
been pure coincidence, the action of one
big studio, which dismissed $500 en-
ployes Tuesday, including scenario writ
ers of years standing, did nothing to
assuage Hollywood's mourning.
Further means burdened the Call
fornia air when word passed about that
another company had deferred salary
payments from last Saturday to Mon
day. and on Monday had announced an
additional postponement until the next
day. The big star of the performance
thereupon refused to put on his grease
paint, and as even a days delay in the
show meant heavy loss he was paid.
Then a hundred extras who had re-
hearsed for three days and who were
vitality needed baked until they, too,
were paid.
The courts here never blazed with
stars as they do at present.
The Government, carrying its tax
fraud cases into court. is calling upon
ladies of the bright lights and cameras
in an effort to Substantiate its charges
against an agent accused of having
aided cinemaland in presenting fraud
ulent tax returns.
Producers who signed Dorothy Mac
kali and Bill Haines to contracts where
every moment means hundreds of dol
lars had to lose tidy sum when those
two lurninaries loitered around court
waiting to testify.
Billy Halnes wasn't called and had to
return next day. If you know what
that means to studio, you'll give it
sympathy. Visitors are not welcome on

Across the hall at the recent Pan
tages trial friends of Carmel Myers,
whose husband aided the theater man,
were seen at every session. Friends of
Carmen Pantages were in evidence there
also.
A few months back the Hickman trial
brought out some of the luminaries of
the village Ernst LubitSch and King
Vidor attended one day; Charles Chap

viewed the murderer. There was quite
a fair for crime. Young Joseph Schild-
kraut watched several sessions, con-
WINGED there was material for him that
would be priceless some day.
Out here where snow is rolled oats
dipped in paraffin and Slush is made of
salt and marble dust, one becomes SO
accustomed to synthetic effects that the
real thing is unbelievable.

I live was afire 1 approached home

which had accumulated on everything

the premises I glanced into the mirror
to discover that I could drop on one
knee and do a nanny song very con-
vincingly. There's nothing synthetic
about fire in this village.
