SCREENLAND

passed the Binet test and thought in terms of "full-face" and "profile," but the interviewer was nothing if not fair.

Everything was going famously. Agnes had exhibited her butler, her Gallic maid, her new pup, a newer Fox scarf.

"Do you use rouge, Miss Ayres?"

Agnes mulled over that one for sometime, then her face was lighted with intelligence. The eyes snapped. Her round chin lifted.

"Why," asked Agnes with gestures, "why paint the lily?"

famous vampess, Theda Bara, is far different from our fond imaginings. Theda has swept the incense ashes out of her home and is willing to let you see just what she is—a nice gal with a neat sense of proportion and of the ridiculous.

The Chamber of Commerce points with pride to Conrad Nagel—who spends his Sundays ushering at church. Poor Conrad one peccadillo from him, and the Chamber of Commerce would resign in a body. If Conrad ever took to blonde ladies and brunette liqueurs, I can't imagine who'd be the next purity sign-post. Jack Holt, perhaps.

piece of hokum that is hooted here is this "nationality" stuff. A certain star with blue-black hair and the orbs of Esther, claims she is Spanish. You almost believe it until you hear the rich tongue of the Talmud from her mama's lips. Then you recall that Madrid types are often blondes with violet eyes.

Why doesn't someone step forward and claim Lapland as her birthplace? You can't expect the Latin countries to born all the movie stars.

the movie star who said: "George Sand? Of course, I know George Sand. He used to go to school with my brother."

And the other who ordered "eight yards of the best new books"?

Enough!

May McAvoy is a nice girl.

Mary Philbin is really seventeen.

And Bull Montana was a wrestler.

WE would like to make it clear that our operation of the BROADWAY -CliAR- IDGE HOTEL in the heart of New York is going to be successful only because we render sincere service at a "square price."

It is our privilege to prove the old slogan "A Room and a Bath for $3.50" is not just a fairy story which generally applies to ONE ROOM in a 300-room unit.. We wish to go on record that the BROADWAY-CLAR- IDGE HOTEL has 100 rooms and baths for $3.50. This does not mean that the rooms are cheap. It is simply corking good value.

Now making yearly leases at moderate rentals.

We are desirous of catering to the right kind of people and assuring them of a hearty personal welcome. There is NO CHANGE OP POLICY, QUALITY, OR CHARACTER IN THE BROADWAY -CLARIDGE. It is just as clean, wholesome and well conducted as in the past, with a warm personal greeting and welcome from its old staff and its new operator.
