know of this the first time I went into
the set and Mr. Standing was experi

other side of the wall. I glanced at
this big portrait and the eyes looked
right at me. I didn't pay any par

as I am, because I like to read roman
tic stories about hidden rooms, mys
terious passages, and all that sort of
thing, so I had a lovely time during
the taking of the picture explaining
how all these clever devices work. It
is really wonderful what clever things
they can muke. In one scene there is

"You know," said Vivian Martin
seriously, "I always have to see my
self before other people see me, go
after a picture is taken and is ready
for release, I go into the projection
room all alone and have it run for my
special benefit.
"I am always afraid that there is
something wrong and I havo the feel
ing that if I see how I act on the
screen before anybody else sees it, I
can correct my faults, before appear

years of experience on the stage
makes this feeling come to me it's
