Miss Bradford, After Hard Work, at Last Feels She ‘Belongs’ in the Movies.

BY VIRGINIA BRADFORD HOLLYWOOD, April s—The filming of “Bella Donna" constituted my coming-out party in the movies'. Not that it changed my status of extra —for I am only a piece of human confetti in the picture, but in my own mind it definitely ended my awkward flapper days in fliekerdom. This sense of "belonging,” of being finally on the inside, comes to some girls after the second or third job, to others only after months of work. My debut was a hectic party. Everyone but myself thought it was for I AM ONLY A PIECE OF HUMAN CONFETTI. Po’a Negri, for Adolphe Meftjou, Conway Tearle, Conrad Nagel and the rest of her supporting cast. But that didn’t hurt my feelings. It was given under a vast glass roof. Everyone came in gorgeous costume, 250 men and women, transformed from prosy folk to the most ravishing creatures by wig and paint, satin and tights under the brilliance* of the sun arcs.

ROYAL contains no alum—leaves no bitter taste

On a high platform, megaphone In hand, like a battle general, stood George Fitzmaurice, director. Beside him, Arthur Miller, master of cameras. Oppdsite, close to the mob, Frank O’Connor, assistant director. A volley of sharp Instructions. Then a burst of orchestra music, “Lights!” and the purr of cameras as we danced and chattered, tossing balloons and confetti for the “long shot” carnival scene. Then a blare of whistles, and stoppage. “Kill ’em!” came the order. It wasn’t a decree of execution for bewildered boneheads—merely studio argot to douse the lights. Instructions were patiently repeated. Pola Negri, dark and exotic in salmon silks, sat across the canal from us, consulting her script and munching hits of orange under the hovering attention of wo maids. And now wo extras were at leisure. Some watched her act. Others, hardly aware of her presence, preferod strolling flirtation with the carnival partner of an hour. For some the occasion was a mere job: for others a chance to grow by careful observation. A sort of segregation of the wise and foolish at the threshold of the movies. It seer *d improbable that any particular extra would be observed in all the melee of pretty faces and brilliant costume, hut I tried to keep In mind that in every turn of the kaleidoscope one bit of glass always stands out —and acted accordingly. Directors Fitzmaurice and O'Connor may not have noticed me. Certainly my contribution to "Bella Donna” was obscure enough. Rut for the first time I left the studio without the feeling that the door had slammed behind me. NEXT: Does it pay to hreal< into the movies? Fire In Woodruff Place A coal oil explosion in the garage of Fred Prange. 653 Middle Drive, start ed a fire which caused S6OO damagf Wednesday night. It caused the sec end run of the fire department to Woodruff Place since the town agree I to pay the city for police and fire pro teetion.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Changing Times Bring New Rules of Etiquette

Social lines used to be strictly drawn. Young men and girls met in the same “set.” Their parents were acquainted and also belonged to the “set.” Today all that is changed. Friendships are formed in offices, or after only a few meetings between persons of far different “classes.” Asa result, one point of etiquette which has grown up is that which permits a young man to take a girl to call on his mother. He does it because sometimes it is the only way in which the mother may know what girls are his friends. This is far better than to let the mother, bound by convention, sit and wonder what sort of friends her son has. New Problem Dear Martha Lee: I want to find out about the proper way tor a man to introduce his Kiris to his mother, who may never have met any particular ones. Mothers ought to be acquainted with the girt) a fellow runs around with, shouldn't they? My mother very seldom goes anywhere, and certainly it would be difficult to bring about a meeting in any ordinary way, unless I deliberately took the girl to my home. I am afraid to do that t or fear of being In bad form, as 1 never yet heard of any fellow taking his girl to his house. Perhaps she ought to cal! on mother, but neither of vs seems ab!" to find out just wbai is the right procedure. Our parents arp not acquainted either and don't go tn any society together, so it is a pretty puzzling questic 1 Very truly yours. TROUrU.ES. Take the girl to see your mother. If you were engaged, it would he your mother’s place to call on her. But under the circumstances, the new style of etiquisette is best.. Quick Courtship Dear Miss Lee: I am 18 and am going with a fellow of 19. I have known him only four weeks, hut I love him and he says he loves rue. He has asked me to marry him. He has everythin* a fellow would want to make a pil happy His fattier owns some large manufacturing plants. I am sure I should be happy. Do you think It is all right to marry this fellow? TN’ A HURRY. First, both of you are too young to marry. Secondly, you have not known each other long enough to test your love. So wait a while—a few years would not be too long, as both of you are so young. A Love Pirate Dear Miss Lee—l am in love with my friend's feflow. She does not know this He never sees any plan with her unless he invites me. too 1 am afraid my friend would get mad if sh knew he loved mbut I did riot tell him I loved him Tie said ts I would go with him steady he would quit my friend and go with me. I told him I would not have him ruin my riend s happiness JT said i wouhl ruin his then Am I right in not going with him?

■Martha Lee*s Advice

man really loves you and not your friend, you cannot make her happy by turning him down. Don’t go with him “steady,u but do not refuse his friendship, unless your girl friend Is very much in love with him and there is a chance that your love will pass. That would depend upon your ages. Mother Interferes Dear Miss Lee—l am a very young married woman away from my people. My husband is very good to me. I love him dearly and we get along lovely. But I got a letter from my mother and she said insulting words to us. Os eourse, it Is mother and 1 love her. But my husband forbids me to receive any more mail from her He threatens to leave me if I do. Please advise me. BROKEN-HEARTED T. B. Don’t let your mother separate you and your husband, even though you do love her. Write to her and tell her how much unhappiness her letter caused. Ask her to send your husband a. note telling him she is sorry. If she really was insulting, that is fair enough. Don’t tell your mother your husband forbade you to receive any more mail from her, unless it is absolutely necessary. Largely Fancv Dear Miss Lee: Before I met my husband. I went with a fellow for two years and was engaged to him. He went over seas After he returned ho did not seem to care for me So we quit and 1 ma'-ned another. I have been married four year* and uni a faithful wife and mother. But 1 find I cannot forget tins other man. I have not seen him sin.it> he stopped going to pether, hot it srerns aa if he ip with nn every day I love my husband and he is very poo dto me. I love my babies with all my heart. But I do love this other man. This makes me most dissatisfied and unbappy. Please advise me. FAITHFUL WIFE. You have a hard battle before you, but I feel sure you will come out ahead. Don’t give yourself time to think about this other man. Have something to do every minute, so that your days will he filled. Remember that distance lends enchantment and that this man probably would lose much of his fascination if you actually saw him. if possible, get away for a short vacation, so that: you will realize how much you care for your husband and your home. Matters of Form R. A. TANARUS.: Your mother probably wants you to get married, but some times feels that she hates to have you leave her. All mothers are like that. t Your fiance may call just as often ns he wishes or as It is convenient What time he leaves depends upthe circumstances. If you work, r seems to me he should get away by 11 o'clock, generally.

FROM MRS. MARY ALDEN PRESCOTT TO PRISCILLA BRADFORD. MY DEAR PRISSY: It. was very disappointing to me and I presume you were disappointed, too, that you were called home by the illness of your mother before the wedding. t would not write to you in this fashion did I not know your mother, Mehitable Bradford, very well, and I was sure you would find as you did that her illness was more a case of selfishness and a desire to have you entirely to herself. You know I tried to persuade you when you got the telegram that this was so. But you, as a dutiful daughter, felt you must return home only to find that my prognostications were perfectly correct. Whatever I may think, my dear Prissy, of this union between my son and Leslie Hamilton, between a man whose ancestors have been statesmen, judges, artists and professional men, to the daughter of a man whose early years were spent amid the sweat of a steel mill, I must say that the wedding of John and Leslie was very beautiful. There was. perhaps, too much pomp of convention and pageantry of wealth, but nevertheless everything went off better than I expected. Mrs. Hamilton must have had somewhere among her forbears people of culture and refinement. Leslie, as you know, is a very beautiful girl. lam afraid that her beauty was the lure which drew my son's heart to her while others of greater worth were passed by. There were six bridesmaids and a maid of honor, with accompanying escorts for each as they walked back in the marriage train from the altar. I almost felt, dear Prissy, as i should probably feel if 1 were look ing upon the dead face of my son as 1 saw him take the ring from his friend a Mr. Sidney Carton, and place it upon Leslie's linger. There was a look upon Ills face that I had never seen before. Even to me, his mother, he had never given such a glance of utter adoration. 1 cannot tell you the feeling that I had.

understanding between John and me, and while, of course, I have not seen as much of him since he left his home to go to Albany, yet I have always tried to keep in touch with him by writing him letters of admonition and advice. On the day of the wedding, however, when I looked at that beautiful girl beside him. I felt some way as though my hoy had gone away from me. I knew that I had noth- j ing in common with his wife and I suddenly felt that I had grown old and that never again would my boy listen to my counsel. She was of another time, almost of another race. Her gods were not my gods, and yet, Prissy, I must tell you of a great surprise I had. The night before the wedding, after they had had a rehearsal of the ceremony—this seemed to me almost a sacrilege—Leslie came to me and put her arms about me and laid her cheek against mine. It is soft and flowerlike, Prissy. I felt a tug at my heart especially when she said: "Dear Mrs. Prescott, I shall never be able to thank you enough for giving me that beautiful desk. Already it has filled a place in my life that I never expected to have filled, already it has brought to me the knowledge that. I am no different from all the women who have peopled this earth, because I know that all the women who have sat at that desk have loved as I love your son.” I did not tell her, my dear Prissy, that probably the women of that romantic period of French history who had sat at that desk had not been women of chastity and virtue. I did not want to sully her ideals. Instead 1 asked her, "Have you found the secret drawer?” and she answered with a smile, “The drawer is still a secret.” I am sorry to say that this answer dispelled any new-found joy that I had lt> my prospective daughter-in-law, for it told me that she would never come to me with her joys and her sorrows —that henceforth I should walk this world alone. Affectionately yours. MARY ALDEN PRESCOTT. NEXT: Alice Hamilton, bridesmaid at the wedding of her sister, Leslie, to John \lden Prescott, tells of the tragedy of a blighted love.

A New Dance Record —“Farewell Blues—Saw Mill River Road," by the Isham Jones Orchestra is a release with predictions of exceedingly great popularity, and after hearing the record Peggy’ Ann was convinced that the predictions were deserved. There is harmony that is at once melodious and "blue” In the Farewell Blues and its popularity is expected to be g’•eater than that of the “AN abash Blues” —the acknowledged peer of the "blue" numbers. The Isham Jones orchestra plays this record with their usual swinging finish, characteristic of their productions. A new record of great beauty is made by the Elshuco Trio, "Far-niente-Serenade. ’ The combination of the violin, cello and piano, seem to he the perfect medium for the melody of those numbers —their great beauty leaves the listener rested and refreshed. Visit the Brunswick department of the Baldwin Piano Company and ask to hear their new’ releases — they will gladly oblige you. * * • The comfort and convenience of the two-piece suit, together with the fact that it has been designated as one of the most modish modes of the moment, will make it a favored street costume this spring. ♦ * * The time when the heavy velour draperies will be relegated to the store room is close upon us; why not try dotted swiss as a satisfactory summer substitute? * • * This Week The One Transaction —that was unalloyed pleasure was taking my savings bank book back to the last window of the MeyerKiser Bank and have my Interest entered thereon.
