LAUNCHING of a ship is surrounded by sailors with many superstitions. If the launching is a success, the ship goes to sea with a crew free of misgivings. A girl launches her social ship when she makes her debut. If it be successful, her social career has received a most desirable impulse. Whether it’s a complete success or a partial failure, depends more on her personal conduct than any other feature.

The Debutante 1. A debut may be mad© at a ball, afternoon tea with dancing, small dance, small tea without music or simply by issuance of her mother’s visiting card with the daughter’s engraved below her own. 2. At a ball each guest shakes hands with the debutante and she should receive as long as they continue to arrive. 3. The debutante’s supper partner is one who has spoken for the privilege weeks or months in advance of the event. 4. The debutante must dance well or she had better stay away from balls or dances, and exploit her other abilities, such as being able to play a good hand at bridge or a good game of golf. 5. The debutante should remember that it’s folly to try to do anything socially unless one can do it

A ‘Fate,’ Who Unwinds the Fortunes of Moviedom, Gives the Beginner Some Tips (Fifth Article of Series in The Times)

By VIRGINIA BRADFORD HOLLYWOOD, .March 27.—Casting directors are the “fates" who unwind the fortunes of moviedom, as every girl coming to Hollywood ought to know at the outset. It had taken me weeks of floundering to realize their importance. Then came an illuminating talk with L. M. Goodstadt of the Lasky company, dean of Hollywood's casting directors, with whom I gained an interview by sending in a note from the gate. A cheerful, unruffled and stagetrained man is Goodstadt, who goes into the market for his human-picture material very much like any other business man for supplies. He took half an hour to tell me about his job, the material he looks for. what the novice must expect—a kindly service to a stranger which I am sharing with every movie-struck girl who reads this. “I try to see every one once,” he said. ”1 look for photographic quality, a thing peculiar to pictures; for intelligence and charming personality; above all, for intelligence, for that suggests the capacity of growth and staying power. “Extra people are just as carefully selected as are the principals. Heart-Breaking Slrugglc “The beginner must be capable of great patience, for this is one of the slowest and most heart-breaking struggles I know of. “The wise director judges an applicant not alone for what he or she seems capable of today, but a year or two h<*nce. Nothing is farther from the truth than the impression that any good-looking girl will he grabbed

It couldn't be done, even if w> wanted to. “Motion picture production isn't a game; it's a business. “Perhaps you’ve never thought how costly it is to oust untried people for prominent parts. The daily average production on this lot is from $6,u00 to SB,OOO a day. One misfit may slow or stop the whole works. “There is no way for the N-ginner, even after breaking in. to know whether there'll be one day's work jar'll “I REGISTERED AND WENT HOME TO A SOLEMN AND SLEEPLESS NIGHT.” per week or month.

Os course, it's essential to think well ;of yourself, but don’t Poke up a director’s time telling him how good you are and what a knockout you'd 1m if you only had a chance*. “Better be frank, and say you want to learn, than trump up fake experiences which may lead to a disastrous first mistake.” How much of this was meant for me personally I could only guess. Just what had I to offer in the picture market to Justify that “slow, heart-break-ing struggle” this courteous adviser had sought to impress upon me.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

A/[artha Lee Her Column

f'T'M IE final curtain has fallen 4. for the great Bernhardt. Site leaves a lasting memory, not only {is the greatest tragedienne of all time, but also as a great woman Determination and will-power were the dominating notes of her life. It was determination which made her a great actress —when she was young she was considered an untalented, “ugly duckling.” It was will-power which pulled her through several critical illnesses. Her life is a sermon, the kind no one tires of reading. We cannot all excel as Sarah Bernhardt did, but we can use her methods to do our best in our own field. Plenty Young Dear Miss Lee —1 have been ca'.linsr on a srirl for the past ten m'-nths and I like her and believe she thinks something if me. But we I Kith are mpy 17. and I think this might be getting just a little serious. And I think t am too young to call on a girl every Thursday and Sunday evening steady. I do not know whether 1 should continue to do this or not. POMPADOUR. You are too young to keep “steady company” with a girl. Go to see her once in a while, if you wish, but do not make it a regular practice. Accept Friendship Deal- Miss Martha I- I am a girl of js and am in love. The lellow I go with seems to be m love too but lie never tells me how much he think* of me. i have been going with him atom- l a year. What can 1 do': ANXIOUS L. M >. You can accept this boy's friendship and not worry about his love. He will tell you when the time comes. He likes you or he would not have gone with you for such a long time. Chance at Right Miss Lee—After a girl has gone wrong and afterward has married and then separated from her h-.is 1 and. do you think she should ever go with another man? The man 1 married was 119. lam 17. , TOO YOUNG. If a girl truly repents a mistake marie when she was very young, she should not have to pay for It the rest of her life. She should, however, try pc.vflv to atone by doing what site can for ot iters. In your case, you should not go with other men for several years, tiecause it will take time for you to re build your reputation. And always be careful to steer clear of the kind of man who caused your downfall. Just Bea Pal HEARTBROKEN: 1 know your troubles seem large to you. but they really are small laelde the many really heavy ones many people bear. You say you are a church member. Then you should realize that you only make our mother unhappy by adding to her troubles now. An Easter dress might give you a little pleasure, but it would not be worth the worry It would cause her. A bright Easter smile and an Easter soul will mean more. Os course this 13-year old boy does not show any affection. Boys of that age like girls whe are good sports and good pals, not those who expect a.f fectlon. So lust be his pal. Proper Actions Dear Mi** Lee—l Please tell me whether it is proper for a man to enter the door of a public plai-e first and hold it open for the woman or to hoM tip* door open from the outside and let the woman enter first 2 What Is the proper standing position of a man while talking to a friend? 3.

What shall 1 do to win her love ncatn BLUE. 1. Hold the door open from the out ride. 2. Stand “at enee.” not slouching, with your hands at your side. 3. If you really love this girl, re lease her from this promise. She Is far too young to be In love or en gaged. K<mp her friendship for a fewmore year*, then try to win her love. A Way Out Dear Miss I.ee—T am id and have been roiny with a fellow of 22. I don't cantor him when I am away from him. but when I am with hint nonietlmo* 1 like him I know you will say I am too young, but already he has told me i am the only j-irl he ever could love and that he hoped to win me for hi* wife Unw can I tell him I don't want to o with him and st!'l ri main his friend? LILY OP-VALLEY. Just tell this man that It Is not fair for you to continue to go with him, as you can like him only as a friend. Remind hint that you are too young to think of love, but ask hint to be your friend.

LETTER FROM ALICE HAMILTON TO BETTY STOKLEY You can imagine, dear Betty, how thrilled I was to get a cablegram I h.ijd never even seen a real cablegram before, let alone receiving one, and just think, dear, it was relayed to me from New York by wireless. It was a good thing that I happened to be alone at the house when it came, as mother would certainly have made me confess al^. Your idea is splendid. The moment I received the cablegram X made arrangements to meet Karl Whitney at tea at the Country Club. His voice was full of repressed excitement when 1 told him I thought I had hit upon the plan. When I first told it to him ho seemed a little dubious. “Someone,” he said, “who is a connoisseur of pearl* will surely see them, and the conspiracy will be all off.” Bride Tells Everything But I finally talked him over and he agreed to It. 1 really think secretly he wanted Leslie to know and just to keep it to herself, but I know niv own sex well enough to know that a loving young bride tells her husband everything and a sensible old wife tells him nothing. Karl had the p-nrls in ,t <as<- in In* pocket, Petty, and you never saw M-ch gorgeous things in your li f**. Think of it! Sixty lustrous, luxurious. lovely pearls, and not one of them cost less than $2,000! Don’t you wish you had someone who loved you well enough and was rich enough to make you a present like that? If I had been Les I don’t think I ever could have resisted Karl. Personally, J think him much nicer than the man she is going to marry. But as we have said to each other often times, one never can tell just why or when or with whom one will fall in love. The only thing one will know about it. Is that, one Is in love. It Seems strange, B'-tty, to bo treated as a grown-up young woman by one of L*s’ admirers, but. of coiin-e, now that my older sister is to be married, and I am 17 years old. It is right that I should take my place in society. “All Foolishness.’' I ll tell you honestly, however, that I'll never have a grand wedding; I think they are all foolishness. It really seems to me like making an awful bluff, when you do not yet know the value of your hand. Think how you feel If after a year or two you would want to get a divorce and the papers would all refer hack to your wonderful wedding. No. Pm dtermlned that I shall elope when I marry. But 1 haven't se**n any one yet that I am in love with—at least I do not pet hot and col l when some good looking chap comes into the room. I've tried to

be thrilled with a lot of chaps, but It would not work. Guess I’m too practical to fall in love. Even when Karl Whitney took both my hands In his and, looking down into my eyes, said in the most impressing manner—“dear little Alice, I didn’t think it ever possible that a girl of your age could he so sympathetic and u;i - .antling"—my heart didn’t miss a beat. “Look of Sympathy” Won’t it be glorious while Los is being married, for me, at the very end of the bridesmaids’ row, to look across at Karl Whitney, who is one of the ushers, and then let my glance rest for a moment on the glorious string of pearls on Les’ neck (for I'm going to insist upon her wearing them) before sending him another look of deepest sympathy and understanding? I and I only shall know how he is experiencing “a feeling ot sadness and longing”—because the only woman he will ever love is unknowingly wearing a gift that he has been preparing for her for years as she takes upon herself the vows of eternal fidelity to another man. Oh, Betty, isn't it glorious? T do not think that any other girl in all th** world ever had a r 1 vninaroe like thi? ik.itig at her. You ;nav writ* it. but i am a part of the living of it. “Crazy to See Book” What do you mean by complications? I'm crazy to see your book. Are you really going to have this one of the things that happens to your heroine? I shall feel quite like a real author. I'm going to keep your cablegram, however, because some time I might want K> tell It to rny grandchildren, just to show them that when 1 was young I took part In a real love story right out of a novel—one that was really and truly alive. You are a dear thing to help me out with the plan. I should never have thought of It. Don’t stay abroad too long. Now that I’m really a grown-up young lady and Les is out of the way, we could have an awful lot of fun if you were here. With lots of love. ALICE.
