RemoDing Makeup Is An Art, Too, Writer
 Learns From British Star
BY DAN THOMAS NEA Service Writer.

Hollywood.--Regardless of how long one hangs around the picture game there always is something new to be learned.
 The latest bit of Knowledge to come my way is that there is a real art to removing makeup. al- ways knew that the proper appli- cation of makeup demanded prac- tically as much science as building bridges, but never gave much thought to it's removal. Like most others, I figured that the grease paint was scraped off in any old way.
 Now all has been changed. And in the future I probably shall lie awake nights wondering if our poor little rich boys and girls were able to remove their makeup quick ly enough to get home from the studios in time for dinner.
 
 For this added bit of knowledge I offer thanks to Adrianne Allen from New York, London and points east. Miss Allen. in case you don't know it--and you probably don't is the newest of newcomers in the picture business. That is. she is to- day. Tomorrow there may be some one else.
 The actress, who is well known in New York and London stage cir cles as well as by London film audiences. has been brought to Hollywood for six months to see how she goes over with American moviegoers. At the end of six months she goes back to London for stage appearance. But if Des Moines, Kokomo and a few other cities place their stamp of approv- al on her, she'll be back for more pictures.
 Getting back to the makeup business, it all happened because Adrianne is a newcomer in town. Since one always should become acquainted with newcomers as soon as possible after they step off the train-you know. make them feel at home and all that--I stro1led over to the Paramount lot to get a glimpse of this girl.
 She was in her dressing room, all in a hurry to get the grease date-and with her husband of all people.
 "But if you don't mind that, come on in and let's get acquaint- ed," Adrianne remarked. all the time yanking out invisible hair- pins.

Like most English players, have w-anted"-cold cream being rubbed vigorously on the face-"for some time to come to Hollywood. And now that I'm here I love it. But never will give up the stage for a straight picture career.
 "Actine before camera is far more difficult"-off comes the cold cream and part of the grease paint with it-"than acting on the stage.
 "On the stage"-more cold cream being applied-"you don't have to think of anything except what you are doing The cold cream coming off again and with it the remainder of the grease paint and mascara from the eye lashes.
 "But on the screen you contin- uallv have to think"-process of washing the face with soap and cold water-"of your appearance. best camera angles and whether you are staying within the camera limits"
