LTHOUGH I never stood before a
motion picture camera until I was
almost grown, I received a lot of movie
training from the time I could toddle
about.
I was born In Lilla, France. My fa-

sawdust ring or onto the stage.
My first appearances were in a bal-

Blond Army
That Hollywood has more blonds to
the square foot than any other city in
the world was proven recently at the
Paramount studios. William Beaudine
was directing a girls’ school scene for
“The Crime of the Century.” Desiring
to improve his scene composition, he
called out: “Will that blond please
move three feet to her right?” With
one accord thirty-five girls moved three
feet to their right,

WHY, PROFESSOR!
Jane, the maid, tapped timidly on
the professor's study door and en-
tered.
“Gentleman in the hall wishes to
speak to you, sir,” she sald.
The professor looked up from his
book,
“Tell him I'm out, Jane,” he sald
brusquely.
Jane shrugged her shoulders hope-

“1 did, sir,”

a railway carriage where a woman
and her small daughter were already

tried to get him to leave the carriage

“That's all right, madam,” replied
the man. “I'm committing suicide at
the first tunnel, anyway.”

| MAKING BEST OF
SUNNY HOURS OF
THE PERFECT DAY
“Nothing,” sald Goethe, “is more
difficult to bear than 5 series of per-
fect days”
A good many of us now would be
glad of a chance to test that state
ment,
We should be glad of a series of
“perfect days” even though the bless
ing should prove quite unbearable!
In fact iv these days of stress and
strain and uncertainty for all of us.
the idea of perfectly smooth salling
with no difficulty or trouble or con.
cern of any kind is entirely attrac.
tive. It would take even more than
the eloquence of Goethe to convince
us that we should find an untroubled
world “difficult to bear!”
The great author's idea, of course,
is that some difficulty, struggle, set-
back, add zest to life. That it is
fun to overcome trouble, That a per-
fect day ylelds its full measure of
pleasure only because of our recol-
lection of the ralny day. And the
thought that comes to most of us
is that given sufficient perfect days
to wipe out the recollection of the
dark days, we humans immediately
set about supplying our own clouds
and darkness—in the form of petty
frictions and irritations which shadow
our world quite as effectively as real
trials and troubles, And they do
not compensate with the ennobling
influence of real trials—the soul
purging, the broadening of viewpoint,
the gift of philosophy, which help us
to put to better use, for the happi-
ness of ourselves and our loved ones,
the golden hours of the perfect days,
when these do come along.
We are not to be scared off the
“perfect days.” In fact we are try
ing our hardest to woo them back.
And 1 wonder If when they come we
shall have profited sufficiently from
the difficult times so that we shall
indeed know how to use them to en i
joy and to disseminate happiness, so |
that the good times may never again |

Here is quicker relief from pain—the
fastest safe relief, it is said, ever
known. This is due to a scientific
discovery by which BAYER Aspirin
starts “taking hold” of pain a few
minutes after taking.
The illustration of the glass here
tells the story. A Bayer tablet starts to
disintegrate or dissolve—go to work

relief from pain—fewer lost hours
from headache, neuritis, rheumatism.
