The ideal age lor a heroine of moving picture romance or of love stories generally is today 28 years, an .age that only a few years ago was regarded by the general public as fix ing a woman "defJnUely in the ranks of confirmed splnHterhood. This Is the conclusion made from a careful study of the 27,000 love stories which the lay public, amateurs from all wulka of life, wrote for the scenario contest recently conducted by the Chicago Daily News. Representing not what scenario and magazine edi tors or writers guess 1 the public's choice to be, these manuscripts were first hand information on the actual tastes .of the people who buy books, and who attend moving picture exhi bitions. "Striking unity among the nation ally scattered contestants upon the subject of the heroine's age is among the first things to be noted by the judges," snid James Shryock, di rector of the contest today, announc ing the facts ns brought out .by the competition. ' It is too general to be accidental and represents undoubt edly' a" country-wide change in ideals. "Few of the heroines are in their 'teens, only a handful are in their early twenties, the great majority are around 27 and 28, the authors seem ing to regard this age as woman's best and woman as more beautiful, intelligent, poised and attractive there thtfn previously. The judges declared that the age of the ideal heroi ie had been advancing as ro mantically perfect. "The judges explain this by citing woman's entrance into industry, politics, education and by pointing out that woman today refuses to grow old and takes better and more intelligent care of her beauty than she did in early periods. In the sto ries written by women, 60 per cent of the total, the heroines were on the average four to five years older than In tho stories written by men. IN LOCAL ROSE SHOW Market'News livestock.
