These executives and their scouts constantly
are on the lookout for new starring material
That in itself is a ponderous job, costing the

Is Just the beginning
After the desired person has been discovered
Is when the real work starts. The man, or
woman, must be presented to the public IN the
proper manner. Otherwise his film career is
ended almost before it starts. There isn't a
potential star In the world, no matter how
great, who can stand a bad initial presentation.
They talk about an actors lucky breaks
carrying him to stardom. In a sense that is
true-if you want to regard it as lucky to- be
handled in the proper manner. ACTUALLY ue
luck element is very small
Behind the career of every outstanding star is
q great deal of careful thinking and planning.

Greta Garbo and Mae West. are as rare aS
white orchids-and price them sometime.
[ lowEvER, the person with great p0ten-
talities who receives poor handling has
less chance of climbing the ladder to success
than has the person of lesser talents who
grooned IN the right way.
It's all in the handling, ladies and gentlemen,
all in the handling. For an example, let's take
a look at Anna Sten
Eighteen months ago the Russian actress came
to Hollywood. Although great favorite in her
native country she was totally unknown to the
American public. Samuel Goldwyn, who
brought her to this country, saw a potentially
great star in this woman. Yet in year and
half the American public has not yet been
given look at her.
Why? Because 1t has required that much
time to give her the proper presentation. And
Goldwyn knew that unless her introduction was
right, her sojourn in Hollywood would be very
temporary. AS it is, he is confident that when
her first picture, Mana" is released she will
be the toast Of film fans from coast to coast.
He has bet" million dollars ON it.
Although she was regarded as an accom-
plished artist in Russia. Miss Sten was by no
means ready to step before the cameras when
she arrived in Hollywood.
To begin with, she knew not word of Eng

Ish- To be successful here she had to master
our language-speak it fluently and with only
a trace of an accent. To that end she has been
taking daily two-hour lessons and has been
spending several more hours a day studying.
She also had to learn our customs. And her
voice had to be trained for singing as well as
speaking.
That done, attention was turned to the imme-
diate business of preparing her for actual work
before the cameras. There was much she had
to be taught about acting The best available
instructors were engaged to teach the finer
points.
Numerous tests were made, some being prac-
tically one and two reel pictures. For one test
she played an entire sequence from Sidney
Howard's "They Knew What They Wanted"
For another a sequence was lifted from "Mata
Hari."
\A/ITH her acting proficient, attention was
w turned to other things. Step by step she
was made ready for her initial public appear
ance. More tests were made. She was pho
tographed for her hair and for her eyes.
Various make-ups were tried under different
types Of lighting to determine which would
bring out her beauty and personality to its
fullest extent. She went before the cameras in
street clothes and in costumes to find out how
she looked in each and which seemed best
suited to her. Numerous cameramen were as
signed to photograph her to see who would
get" her the best, since 1t is an established
fact that one cameraman can do more with
particular person than another Of equal
ability.
During all this time Goldwyn was conducting
ceaseless search for the proper story IN which
to give the actress her American debut Story
after story arrived at the studio, only to be
discarded
Treatments were made on 20 plays and
novels and then rejected as being not quite
right Finally, Mana" was purchased and .

 PAUL IN ROME

some day, and in glowing words had told of his willingness to preach the Gospel in this city of imperial splendor and power.
 For he was unashamed of the Gospel, as yet little known and recognized. To him it was the power of God unti salvation, greater even than the power of Rome itself.
 And now Paul was journeying to Rome late in life and pris- oner. Unable to secure justice in Palestine, he had made his appeal to Caesar, and the Roman gover- nor, who apparently was well dis posed. but who was dilatory about acting, had been irked by PauIs plea. You have appealed unto Caesar" he said. Unto Caesar you shall go.
 The journey to Rome was not without peril, for the shipwreck so graphically described in Chapter 27 of the Acts. had meant the loss of the ship and the bare escape of sailors. soldiers, and passengers with their lives.
 The company had been compelled to winter in the island of Melita, and now. in the spring. a ship of Alexandria, which also had win tered at the island, conveyed them safely to Rome.
 It is an interesting circumstance, considering the harsh and brutal treatment that often is accorded prisoners, in modern states. and even here in democratic America, that Paul should have had unusual liberty in Rome while he was awaiting trial.
 The process of Roman justice proved to be slow, but Paul was permitted to live in his own house, although there was soldier guard ing him, and for two whole years. we are told. he lived thus. receiv- ing all who called upon him.
 One can understand the unusual opportunity for preaching the Cos pei that was accorded Paul under these circumstances. Instead of this period of enforced settlement being limited period of his lifc 1t was in some respects the time of his greatest and most significant activities.
 It was time, at least, when the depth of his religious experience and faith found meaning. and in the so-called "Epistles of the Im- prisonment," the letters that Paul wrote from Rome to the Philip plans. the Ephesians and others, we have the very highest develop ment of Paul's conception of the Gospel, of the Church, and of the eternal mission of Christ and his followers in the redemption of the world.
 Thus we see how. as Paul him. self pointed out, apparent misfor- tunes, even bonds and imprison- ment. may become the means of emphasizing Gods grace and work.

Police ''Hounding" Charged

Rheta's death, an overwhelm- ing catastrophe, was discovered by mother. In horror and consterna- tion, she turned to me for help. Little did she realize that her every action must be weighed and measured carefully-that the in- vestigation of Rheta's death would follow a set routine and place the members of the household under suspicion first.
 She was 50 sincerely anxious to help clear up the mystery that she refused to follow her attor- ney's advice to "say nothing fur ther," after four or five inter- views. during which she patiently had answered questions and vol unteered information. .* '~
 The attorney, knowing police methods, was afraid that she would make statements in her fa- tigued condition that would be misconstrued.
 In an interval between her grillings, mother was allowed to take a sponge bath = in the pres ence of a male police officer! She was subjected to hours of hound- ing and misrepresentation.
 Topmost in her mind through all this torture was the idea that she must get home to prepare Rheta's clothes for the funeral.

Reports of the Waterbury Na-
 tional bank, receiverf or the San
 ditz & Traurig and Kazemekas
 & Go. banks, showing the operation
 o fthe receiverships during the
 month of November, were filed to- l day in superior court.
 In the SanditZ & Traurig case,
 the receiver collected $1,522.95 and
 had expenses of $3,871.01. In the
 Kazemellas case, the receiver col
 lected $1,63O.8S and disbursed $2,- 491.42.
 The expenses of both closed banks were considerably swelled because of fees to counsel for the
 receiver, Attorney l.. Russell Car ter. He was granted $2,500 partial fee for services to the receiver in the Sanditz case and $2,250 in the Kazemekas case, constituting the | first pyament he receivd since re- ceivership.
 The report in the Sanditz bank shows the receiver has cash on hand in the amount of $13,174.25. lDepositors of that bank will receive a 15 per cent dividend payment on January 10, under an order passed | in superior court yesterday. The receiver expects to have enough
 cash at that time to make the pay lment. About $23,0O0 is needed for a dividend.
 The receiver took in the follow ing sums during the month: In- dustriaI loans, $64.50; bills dis counted, $25; mortgage loans l$S5; interest, sS1.4S; miscellaneous $19.02; Waterbury rents, $327.45;
 Stamford rents. $920.50. The Kazemekas & Co. receipts

Mary Gets Dread Malady

When time to close our sum- mer house arrived, a girl from Detroit, whose parents also had a place on Crystal Lake, invited Mary to stay over and visit her. Mary accepted.
 But hardly had she unpacked her trunk than her hostess became ill, and both girls started home.
 The day after Mary reached Chicago, word came from Detroit that her friend had died of infan- tile paralysis. And the day after that Mary. herself, went to bed with the same dread disease.
 Mother, buster than ever by this time, gave up everything to take care of Mary. Whether it was her expert care, or my sis- ter's own great desire to recover, I don't know, but a couple of months later, Mary was able to come downstairs. She still was very frail, and, of course, sfe still was troubled by her bad heart.
 
 It was the fall that Mary was i'll that Earle learned to fly.

Early in November, Earle wrote that he and Rheta soon would be seeing us. So mother decided that as a welcome home surprise, she would fit up as special suite for them the two rooms on the second floor which she and dad always had--the two best rooms in the house.
 vividly do I recall the scene that took place in our Monroe street house the evening before Earle and Rheta were expected home after their honeymoon at Frankfort. Mother had put her heart as well as her purse into refurnishing the two special rooms for the newlyweds. And the results were lovely.

 CHAPTER SIX
 On the morning of Aug 31, 1929, four carloads of family and friends started for the quiet town of Sycamore, near Chicago. For in the chapel of St Alban's school there, which both my brothers had attend ed, Rheta Gardner was to be- come Mrs Earle Wynekoop. When we reached the school, I helped her change into the filmy white dress which she had brought from Indianapolis for the occasion, then arranged the folds of the white tulle bridal veil which we had bought in Chi cago that morning.
 Clad in bright orange silk, I W3AAC0 ahCdu O4 UCl uoWA Iuc narrow aisle of the school chapel, to the altar rail, where the Rev Charles l.. Street, headmaster, waited with Earle. Ahead of me walked Walkers little boy, Walker, Jr, carrying the ring. Letters Cheer Mother
 Back in Chicago later that day, we the newlyweds, Rheta's parents, and our family gath cred at the Midwest Athletic club for a bridal dinner, with the tra-/ ditional brides cake of many lay CTS and toasts to the bride and bridegroom.
 Next day, Earle and Rheta started for our country place in Michigan for their honeymoon.
 During the two and one-half months that followed, we did not sec the honeymooners. But sell dom . day passed that a letter or postcard with a Frankfort post mark did not arrive at the gloomy old mansion" telling how happy they were.
 These letters and cards, curi- ously enough, seemed to give mother the first cheer she had had since dads death. She missed him terribly, and Earle and Rhe- ta's happiness seemed to give back part of what death had taken from her.
 Their gay letters, she told Mary and me, carried her back to her Honeymoon days.
 We all enjoyed the good chceer these missives brought, even our r0omer, Miss Enid Hennessey, great friend of mothers, who had been a member of our house. hold, almost member of the family for about ten years. She was q teacher in John Marshall high school.
