MOVIE BEAUTY CONTEST JUDGES
ARE MEETINGTO PICK WINNERS
yHE Movie Beauty Contest is over and the judges are
holding the first of their meetings today to choose the
fifteen girls who will be taken to Betzwood next week to have
"'test strips" of movie film made of them.
It is impossible at present to tell how long it will take
for the judges to examine the many photograplis submitted,
but we will announce on Monday all of the definite plans.
We hope to be able to begin announcing the names of the
fifteen on Tuesday. The judges who are making the deci
sions for us are:
Miss Harriet Sartain, principal of the School of Design
for Women.
Leopold Seyffert, noted painter of women's portraits,
whose, studio is 1780 Chestnut street.
Elias Goldensky, whose photographic portrait studies
arc features of all camera exhibitions, 1705 Chestnut street.
i, William Shew ell Ellis, 1612 Chestnut street, a camera
artist whose work has made his name nationally known.
Theodore Marccau, the veteran photographer, who was
also to have acted, has been taken suddenly ill' and ordered
on a sea trip for his health. His interest in the contest was
so keen, however, that he has deputed his general manager,
H. J. StoJcum, to act in his place. Mr. Stokumi has been identi
fied with Colonel Marccau for over twenty years and is inti
mately acquainted with the veteran's views of feminine
beaxdy. ,
We feel that this is as strong a jury of experts as could
possibly have been gathered, and their judgment will be
accepted by all.

GLORIA PAYTON left the South
just about the time the mint julep
did.
And she's welcomed bark with just
about as much enthusiasm as the
Southerners accord to those tempting
tall frosty glasses with the sprig of
gicen sticking out of the top.
Glorin graduated from a convent in
Dallas, Tex., and jumped right into a
drnmutlc stock company in New
Orleans. STio played theie a jear and
then went on n nine months' tour
through Louisiana, Mississippi nnd
Texas with n stock company nnd added
new admirers to her following. Going
bnck to her tirst love, Dallas, she played
there for six months, when Grifllth, on
n chance visit to tho Southern city,
saw her and immediately higned her up
for the screen.
HER latest task, that of playing the
part of a ('hlnese girl in Sessue
Hujaknwa's new Robertson -Cole pro
duction. "Where, Lights Aie Low,"
called for great care in make-up nnd u
vast amount of stud. To insure
niillsm, Gloria took a trip to San
Francisco and made the acquaintance of
some women in the Chinese quarter.
They taught her how to dress her hair
as a Chinese girl should and all the art
of pioper (ostumiug.
Glorin learned, among other things,
that a Chinese girl does not announce
her engagement by means of a ring.
She does it by n different arrangement
of the braids of her hair The Chinese
have different modes of hair diessing for
married women, for widows nnd for
maids; also to denote a woman's social
status.

I'PERT HUGHES,
novelist and
,lln t..tlli I t.nu
HIJ I.J IUl, lillil
turned nhoto-,
dramatist in enrnest. He lias studied
every plinse of the making nnd pro
ducing of motion pictures.
He not only writes nriglnnl scenario,
j hut prepares his own continuity; lie as
sists the director in the uctunl produc
tion, helps cut, edit and title the .pic
ture. He enn even show the players how
thej should net in nnv given scene when
, they do not get the idea from the verbal
. instructions from the director or him
self. After contributing (he nlcturtantWm
of liis novel, "The Cup of Fury," ho
set t." work to school himself in the
new nil. The result Is that he Is
blazing new trails in the development
nf motion pictures and setting n pace
that other screen writers will have to
equal to keep up with the procession.
Mr. Hughes' particular individual
achievement in the development of
American photoplays lies in bringing to
the scieen the striking, homy traits of
American clinrni tcr (in lieu of striving
for action nnd not much cle) nnd the
American sense of humor thnt finds ex-
i pression in every-dnj life. He is giving
i.hninrtcr and distinction to films; ho
writes in pictures instead of in dialogue
or 'iiiiriathe.
HIS production. "Scratch .My Back,"
took film comc.lv out of Its rut nnd
made entertainment ciunl to the best
that the stage can afford. In "Hold
Your Horses." starring Tom Moore, his
new screen comedy vein was continued
but strengthened nnd deepened with
genuine drnmn.
Tho highest point in his development
ns a phntii-drntnntist hns been reached,
according to Goldwyn. in iiis two new
pictures to be iclensc.l in tiie fall.
