Cleo Elucidates.

WHEN Cleo Mayfield speaks on the

The modern woman, despite her pro-
tests that other activities overshadow
her interest in the opposite SEX" asserts
Miss Mayf1eld, shares with her sisters
in past generations the desire to focus
the entire attention of the man of her
choice upon herself. Men are only
grown-up boys; and boys, with their
spirit OF adventure, are always seeking
diversion and change in their playtime.
And 1t is the wise wife and sweetheart
who realizes early in the game that a
woman must be all things to her man
If she is to keep him for her own.
Clothes are women's best friends In
this respect. A woman can be at least
dozen different personalities to the
man she loves If she only knows how to
clothe herself. The effect she has on
her friends Is almost as important as
that which she has on her husband or
sweetheart, for every man likes to know
that the woman he admires is applauded
by others. Besides, popular approval is
essential to the happiness Of every
woman, whether she be stage star, pro-

Advantages Denied to Stage

THE screen version of THE Letter"
a New York play hit, which has
Jeanne Eagles for its picture star, is
said to peculiarly illustrate the adj
vantages of presentation denied to the
stage, because of its limitations"
These advantages, as outlined by the
movie press agent. are said to be per-
ceived in the surrounding atmosphere. "
Pictures" he says, actually show
this atmosphere" whereas the stage
merely suggests it in the most limited
way This unusual story, throughout,
is laid in tropical setting" and this
fact is emphasized continually by
science accessories that the stage, be-
cause of its narrow confines, could not
possibly present.
For Instance, instead of showing but
one room of bungalow, the whole of
the bungalow is shown; also Chinese
gambling houses, not one, but several
bustling thoroughfares, houses, scenic
outlook and the like"
In other words a wider and more
complete scenic presentation is possible
In motion pictures, and this is excellent

Scotland, with its highlands and low

with the Trossachs, the lakes, the
numerous clans, is another paradise for
