ACTRESS TELLS SECRET A Well-Known Actress Tells How She Darkened Her Gray Hair, and Promoted Its Growth With a Simple IIome-Made Mixture. Miss Blanche Rose, a well-known actress, who darkened her gray hair witn a simple preparation which she mixed at home, in a recent interview at Chicago. 111., made the following statement: "Any lady or gentleman can darken their gray hair and make it soft and glossy, with this simple recipe,' which they can mix at home. To a half pint of water add 1 o. of bay rum. a small box of Barbo Com pound, and hi os, of glycerine. These ingredients can be bought at any drug store at very little cost. Apply to the hair twice a week until it becomes the required shade. This will make a gray haired person look 20 years younger. It Is also fine to promote the growth of hair, relieves itching and scalp hu mors and is excellent for dandruff and falling: nsir." Adv.

"1 f (TTTHAT kind of make-up do mo WHAT kin tion-pic "When cture actors use? actresses cry in the pictures do they shed real tears or do we just think they do? Do they hold onions under their eyes to make them cry?" These are a few of the questions asked of motion-picture editors. The Question of make-up in motion pictures is almost impossible to an swer. Thre are just as many methods of make-up in use In the pictures as there are outfits making pictures. Each cameraman has his pet theory of make- ur and the wise director usually allows him to have his way. The camera, after all, is doing the seeing for the entire world and each individual camera sees ust as the cameraman forces it to see. So If one cameraman regulates his ex posures and lighting to suit one kind of make-up, that kind pf make-up is used. The cameraman in the next outfit may have an entirely different method. Perhaps the first cameraman photo graphs so that a deep yellow make-up r erease-Dalnt will appear like Deau- tiful, clear flesh in his picture. If the second cameraman were to photograph the same subjects the subjects would probably all appear to be a colored race. The second cameraman probably as the actors use an almost pure white or very light flesh make-up. Yellow is the predominating color, owever. We all know that if Willie is sent to the nhotographer's with a red necktie about his neck the necktie will come out coal black in the pic tures. That is the answer to the make- d Droblem in the motion-picture busi ness. Red, or anything that contains red, will photograph black in motion ictures lust as in still photograpny. So red in the face is to be avoided. Few persons have faces In wnicn there is so little red pigmentation as to make all make-up unnecessary. If one has been strongly freckled at some im in his life and is placed under the powerful lights used in the studios the freckles of yesteryear will come ut in bold contrast in the pictures or today. They will not be visible to the eye, but the sensitive film will detect the red or brown pigment that was left in the subject's skin when the freckles went away. A thin coating of yellow or flesh colored grease-paint carefully smoothed and coated with a powder to match will do away witn that difficulty. The man with a heavy beard, no matter how closely shaven, will have a week's growth in a picture if precau tions are not taken to cover the siud nds of his whiskers that remain in the skin of his face. Mabel Signs Again. Mabel Normand, the screen's most popular comedienne, has not quit the movies. Neither has she retired from Triangle. On March 17 the .Keystone queen signed a contract with the New York Picture Corporation, one of the Triangle producing concerns. Rumors have been numerous or late that Miss Normand will be featured in a number of multiple-reeled produc- ions. but for the present, at least, she will work for the Keystone Company at the Fort Lee, N. J., studio. She will, in all likelihood, be seen with Roscoe ("Fatty") Arbuckle in a new comedy he is preparing. Just what remuneration the come dienne is to receive for the ensuing year is not generally known. They ay she has. been working ror a paltry 590 a week. These same people assess her services as worth from $1000 to 2000 weekly, based on the drawing power of films in wnicn sne appears. Screen Ooauilp. In "Made La, Presidente," the French farce which is used for Anna Held'a motion picture appearance, the come dienne introduces a pantomime novelty with her famous song, "I Just Can't Make My Eyes Behave." John Barrymore, star of "The Lost Bridegroom." is a notable recruit from the speaking stage. He began his stage career in 1903, when he played Max in "Magda." He starred in "The Dictator." "Sunday," "Alice Sit-by-the-Fire," "Pantaloon." "Miss Civilization," "The Boys of Company B," "Toddles," "The Fortune Hunter," "Uncle Sam," "A Slice of Life," "Half a Husband." "The Affairs of Anatol" and "A Thief for a Night" e Norma Talmadge, who has an appeal ing and emotional role as star of the new Fine Arts-Triasle drama, "Mar tha's Vindication," just happened into pictures." She was a schoolgirl in Brook lyn at the time and expressed a desire to act in motion pictures. With her mother she went to a studio and soon after began her career as an actress before the camera. Her rise in the photoplay has been rapid since. Miss Talmadge was born in Niagara Falls 19 years ago. She was only 14 years of age when she began work for the Vitagraph Company. She has beauti ful features, fine eyes and is able to convoy a thought or an emotion by a slight movement of the head or the twitching of a finger. A major premise of "The Woman's Law" is the opinion of Judge Allison: "Except for finger prints I can find in New York the living double of any man in the world." This interesting story, which is echoed by Inspector Faurot, the finger print expert of the New York police, marks a highly novel point made in "The Woman's Law" that finger printing is the one sure method of identification beyond which it is impossible to go. Victor Moore is burlesquing a town constable of California. He has already written four acts and he says he'll have to put seven more on to show properly the old codger up. The Lasky players were doing scenes for "The Race" when he got the inspiration from contact with the officer. Ethel Clayton, the Lubin star who appeared in support of House Peters in "The Great Divide.," has signed with the World-Equitable forces. m m m Viola 'Dana, the Edison star, has Jumped to the Metro forces. Miss Dana, on the speaking stage, had the leading role In "The Poor Little Rich Girl," "The Littlest Rebel" and "The Model." "War on War" is the name of a se ries of pictures President Selznick, of the Clara Kimball Young Company, is preparing to film in connection with the National Peace Forum's peace campaign. After a considerable absence Frank Keenan will be seen on the Triangle programme ere long in "The Stepping Stone." Mary Boland, former leading woman for John Drew, will support him. . v Down at Los Angeles last week 1000 men defended the walls of Babylon from assault in the new Griffith fea ture temporarily named "The Mother and the Law." The World Film Company is going to open a studio at San Diego. Fox and Pathe have won a victory over the Pennsylvania censors. Three Fox pictures, "The Serpent," "The Fool's Revenge" and "The Kreutzer Sonata," had been condemned entirely, while Pathe releases, the first and sec ond episodes of "The Iron Claw" and "New York" had been so badly muti lated as to entail monetary loss to the company. "The Iron Claw." with a sin gle elimination, was passed, while one fifth of "The Serpent" was condemned. "The Serpent" and "The Fool's Re venge" were condemned by the Port land board of censors. a J. Warren Kerlgan's "The Gav Lord Waring" will be an April Bluebird. Charlie Chaplin is working at the old Climax studio at Hollywood. Cal., where he will produce those one'-a-month Mutual two-reelers. Mary Miles Minter. the youngest star of the stage or screen, who is now ap pearing in Metro wonderplays, has re turned to New York from a tour of several of the largest cities in Canada, where she was tendered a marvelous reception. She was received bv roy alty, dined and feted by college stu dents, visited hospitals, edited the mo tion picture page of a big newspaper for one day, gave away thousands of autographed photographs and received so many flowers from boy and girl ad mirers that it was necessary to obtain an automobile to convey them to her hotel. Miss Dorothy Bernard, who has a remarkable dual role in "A Man of Sorrow," accomplished one of the most difficult bits of acting in her history, critics say, when she leaped Into the ocean the other day and pretended death when taken from the icy water. Miss Bernard was shivering like a leaT when William Farnum, who Jumped in after her, brought her ashore, but with a supreme effort she tensed every mus cle and remained as still as death while the camera man completed the picture. There is a man in Brookline, Mass.. who wants to become a moving picture actor. and. In asking for a place, says, "I have an Idea for a play. It is' to begin with my eyes crossed and ends with my eyes straight. It only takes four days to straighten them." STORM BREAKS ON FLYERS' PROTEGE North Portland Protesting Postmaster Appointment in Face of Opposition. SENATORS ARE CALLED ON Interests AVliose Mail Is Handled Arc JRenewlnjr Fight to Prevent Confirmation and Spoil Hon orable lank's Victory. An emphatic protest against the con firmation of George R. Mokel, whose nomination for Postmaster of North Portland was sent to the United States Senate last Friday on joint recom mendation of Senators Chamberlain and Lane, has been telegraphed to Senator Chamberlain by business men of the North Portland district. . The North Portland postoffice has no connection with the Portland postof fice, and Is outside the Portland city limits. North Portland itself is not a town, but the business center of the stockyards and packing district on the Peninsula. The business of the post office is confined almost entirely to handling of mail for or from the Port land Union stockyards . Company, the Union Meat Company and' livestock commission men operating in the dis trict. 'Outside Influences" Is Mr. Myers. Virtually all these interests have united in the protest, which charges that Mr. Mokel is not fitted, tempera mentally and otherwise, to be post master. The protestants, it is under stood, go into detail in citing instances to show wherein Mr. Mokel is far from satisfactory to them. If Mr. Mokel is actually confirmed it is further understood that business in terests in North Portland may go as far as to refuse to let the postoffice remain in Its present quarters, on prop erty owned by them. The nomination has stirred up much bitterness. - Mr. Mokel, who is one of eight can didates for the North Portland post mastership, owes his nomination to "outside influences," as he was not in dorsed from the North Portland dis trict. These "outside Influences" may be summed up as the Honorable Frank Stott Myers, Portland postmaster and Democratic factotum of Oregon Mr. Mokel's nomination has been vig orously opposed since it became known several months ago that he was a can didate for the office. North Portland business men strongly, indorsed V. D. Crosby, the incumbent, for reappoint ment. Battle for Protege Taken Up. However, this did not at all suit the Honorable Frank, who had his own reason for wishing Mr. Mokel to get the plum. He, accordingly, took up the political cudgels in his protege's behalf. It was quite a diplomatic vic tory for the Honorable Frank when the two Senators, after having held up the nomination for several months, per mitted Mr. Mokel's name to be pre sented to the Senate so much so that the Honorable Frank beamed all over his office when he got the news Friday. Considering the - Honorable Frank's recent experiences in having the Sen ators turn down the nomination of his sister. Miss Minnie Myers, for post master at Forest Grove, and the nomi nation of E. S. Veatch, son-in-law of his brother-in-law, George H. Parker, for postmaster at Grants Pass, over his vociferous protest, he had a good beam coming when his North Portland pro tege was named at last. The North Portland; postoffice is quite a sizable little plum as post offices go. It is a second-olass office, and pays $2100 a year. The other six candidates besides Mr. Mokel and Mr. Crosby are William Folsom, J. C. Brown, A. J. Dillon. William M. Caudy, J. C. Lonergan and J. W. Grussi. LAND SEEKERS ARE DUE W. P. DAVID SOX, OF ST. PAUL, LEAVES FOR CENTRAL OREGON. Associate of President Hill, of Great Northern, Urges Portland to (Sup port Strahorn Project. W. P. Davidson, of St. Paul, who Is associated with L. W. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railway, in the Oregon & Western Colonization Com pany, owning 800,000 acres of land in Central Oregon, arrived in Portland yesterday, and left last night for Bend. He will proceed thence to Burns and other interior points to met a large party of landseekers who propose to lo cate in Central Oregon. "We are getting scores of inquiries for Central Oregon lands every day," said Mr. Davidson last night, "and ex pect a good movement into that coun try this Summer. "The new line of the Union Pacific system into the Harney Valley will do wonders for that part of the state. But the sad part of it, so far aa Portland is concerned, is that this new line will not do much to help Portland. All the business will flow out eastward to Boise or to Salt Lake City. "What Portland needB worse than anything else right now is a road that will connect up the existing lines in Central Oregon." Mr. Davidson declared that it be hooves Portland people to give their active assistance to the Interior rail road system planned by Robert E. Strahorn. "It is the only way that you can save the Central Oregon trade for Portland," he asserted. TRAIN - ROBBERY- RELATED Xo Portlanders Anions Passengers Kobbcd in Vtah Holdup. No Portland passengers. It is learned, were on train No. 1 of the Oregon Short Line Railroad, held up at Roy, Utah, at 1 o'clock Sunday morning. Train 13. arriving in this city at 12:15 yesterday, left Salt Lake City 10 min utes behind the schedule of No. 1. A Pullman porter, Jesse Jackson, of Salt Lake City, was the only member of the crew to run as far as this city. Thirty miles north of Salt Lake, he relates, his train found the track blocked by No. 1. A flagman stationed at the rear told them that the first train was undergoing a holdup. The Portland train at once ran back to Roy, a distance of one mile, and communicated with the authorities. Train 19 leaves Salt Lake City as No. 31, and changes its number at Pocatello, Idaho.

Motorist, Attempting to Cross In Front of Cars, Is Struck and Tossed Onto Sidewalk. A traffic accident that damaged four automobiles, two of the cars being badly smashed, took place at Fourth and Oak streets yesterday afternoon at 2, when H. F. Johnson, of 598 Maple street, attempted to drive his car across the street intersection In front of a Southern Pacific electric passenger train. The motorist miscalculated his chances, it appears, and his car, was thrown with great force against a long row of parked automobiles on the east side of Fourth street. His auto struck the line as one domino is flecked against a standing row, and the parked autos crashed to the shock. Auto No. 1719, owned by E. S. Jack son, of 812 Kearney street, received the brunt of the impact. It was dam aged at least $100 worth, the owner declared, and was towed away.- Next in lino was auto No. 3132, owned by A. Groves, of 395 Fifth street. The thrust of the first car lifted the second partially onto the walk and damaged it badly. The third car. No. 3777, owned by L. K. Moore, of 281 East Fourteenth street North, sustained a broken run ning board and smashed fenders. Although-it jostled against the fourth in line, none of the remaining cars were damaged. , Despite its severe damage the car which tilted with the electric train was able to proceed under its own power, and halted a block away.
