FOR MOVIE
CONTEST

Are you having a photo made
to send in to the Metro-GoldWyn'
Mayer Screen Test Editor OF The
Times?
If you are, here is some peril
nent advice on how to get the
best results from a photograph.
Norma Shearer, charming Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer star, says:
"a photograph should first be
a good likeness. 1t does not need
to flatter you, but it should
show YOU at your best moment.
believe that the more simple
portrait, the better. Avoid elabO-
rate drapes and jewelry.'
USE LITTLE ROUGE
And Joan Crawford, another ex-
uuisite Neutrality-suspicious. star.
declares:
"A great many people do not
know that there is a distinct
makeup for photographs, just as
there Is a distinct makeup for
motion pictures. Never wear
rouge on your cheeks, as this
always shows black, and makes
YOU look hOllOw-cheeked. Use
only a little rouge on your lips,
and apply blackening to the eye
brows and lashes. Use very little
powder, and put just a bit OF
cold cream over the eyelidS and
the cheeks. This picks up the
lights and makes the face look
alive"
Metro Goldwyn Mayer, tn S
paper and Loews Capitol Theater
are looking for new screen per,
sonalities. They have instituted
a local search for boys and girls
with perfect screen personalities.

Western News Cooking
School Pleases Ladies

The motion-picture cooking school
sponsored by the Western News
in the Kootenai theatre last week
ran into extremely bad weather
which affected the attendance, but
in spite of that nearly 300 people
attended the school and profited
by it. Had it not been for the ex-
tremely bad weather, the attendance
would undoubtedly have run into
much higher figures.
The picture was very cIeverly
staged and excellent instruction in
many of the secrets of cooking and
housekeeping was given The act
ing in THE Bride Wakes Up was
very good, and the sound effects
were excellent. The music was APP
pealing and one left the school hum
ming the air The school seemed to
please all the ladies and number
of them spoke in high praise of it.
Two prizes were given away each
day to the holders of lucky num-
bers. On the first day the prize
winners were Mrs. Joe Sheffield
and Mrs. Gordon Cornell, the sec
ond day, Mrs. John FINLAND and
Mrs. Howard Turner; the third day,
Mrs. L. S. Dalton and Betty Jo-
hanson. The prizes were furnished
by one of the sponsors of the school,
the Lever Brothers company, of
Cambridge, Mass, manufacturers of
Rinse, Lux, Lifebuoy soap, Lux
toilet soap, and Spry shortening.
II is probable that a similar mo-
ton picture cooking school will be
sponsored again next year by this
if suitable arrangements
can be made.

Annual Christmas Party
Was Lovely Affair

Despite the snow and sleet last
Friday evening most of the men,
bers of the Junior Womans Club
turned out for the annual Christ
mas party which was held at the
home of Mrs. Ned Joughin With a
CHEEKY fire in the fireplace and
Christmas greens and other decora-
tons attractively placed the atmos-
phere was very conducive to a
pleasant evening.
On the fireplace mantle was an
arrangement of two angels in a
kneehng position in front of a blue
cellophane background This scene
was illumined by two concealed re-
fleeing lights. The Christmas tree
filling one corner of the room was
lovely blue spruce covered with
blue and silver lights. Candelabra
and Christmas green's were used eff
fectively.
The center-piece of the table.
which was set in buffet style. was
Santa Claus III his sleigh drawn by
eight dashing reindeer. 1t was a
contributed dish dinner and the
members all seemed to be very good
cooks. It was delicious.
Mrs. Everett Dunn was in charge
of the entertainment for the even
ing and the plans were cleverly
made. Slips were passed among the
members and each contained the
name of movie star. The persons
receiving name were supposed to
act out the star so that the rest
of the group might guess. After
many hilarious and varied acts the
prize was given to Miss Eleanor
Williams for her splendid portrayal
of the art of skating as done by
Sonia Henie.
Miss Mary Boyle as jeanette Mac
Donald sang ssLascia chic pianga"
by Handel and Dawn by Curran
They were sung beautifully and
were thoroughly enjoyed. She was
accompanied by Inez Ratekin.
In keeping with the Christmas
spirit Miss Virginia Eldredge read
Van Dykes story, THE First Christ
mas Tree Miss Ratekin played a
piano solo, En- Route" by Palm
gren and this part of the enter
tainment was closed by humorous
readings by Miss Hazel McCannon
and Miss Cecilia Liebe.

the list. Members had been asked
to bring snapshots of themselves
and these were placed on a table
with various words, sayings. pic
