CONSTANCE MAY RETIRE FROM TIE SCREEN* First National Has Contract for Two More Big • x Movies. k By Jack Jungmeyer, A'BX Service Writer HOLLYWOOD, July 10.—Constance Talmadge, having dutifully performed all the chores of screen success, having laid aside a million dollars for a rainy day, and having recently married the well-to-do Capt. William Alastair Mackintosh, Is now flirting with the thought of retiring from motion pictures. Contract obligations with First National demand completion of two more pictures. After that Constance will snap her fingers at routine, working only when and if she feels Impelled. And meantime, on a three-months honeymoon in Europe, she will get a foretaste of the leisure she craves. Leisure which, some of her intimates suggest, may contemplate the rearing of a family, once all definite ties with film production schedules are severed. His Wishes, Too f Captain Mackintosh, who won the sprightly and popular comedienne In a whirlwind courtship against a field of devoted Hollywood swains, has been obviously impatient of studio demands upon her time. And, although he has placed no obstacle in the path of her future pictorial activities, his wish is to make home life primary. In this the twain are of accord. Her husband's gain of Mrs. Mackintosh’s exclusive time be proportionate loss of the blonde Miss Talmadge’s effervescent presence to the movie working world. Vivacious, Jocular,* whimsical, irreepressible in gaiety, Constance has been a magnet of attraction on the camera set or at eocia.l gatherings. Best Dancer Scores of admirers accounted her the best dancing partner in" Hollywood. She has a flattering and genuine way of calling every one by his first name. She takes life and her work lightly, and her pet aversion is tempermental display. Unlike her sister, Norma, who never indulges social diversions while making a picture, Constance mixes as much play as possible with her work. Unlike Norma again. Constance Insists on driving her own auto. She likes ’o paddle her own canoe, with a sort of blithe abandon, yet not without a balancing dignity. During her honeymoon, Contsance is to be shown the pomps and glories of the old world* in which her husband was reared, he having been lone time equerry to the Princess of Spain, aide to the viceroy of Bombay, captain of a Scottish regiment, and being still an intimate of English nobility. Coming to Aotic.e first as the mountain girl in Griffiths’ “Intolerance,” Constance Talmadge gained screen distinction in a dozen pictures released by First National. These have returned her a million dollars at the age of 26—handsome recompense for the saucy good nature and unfailing go9d will she has dispensed via the films.

SOVIET PLANS AIR ROUTE Daring Aviators Initiating Fur Carrying Trade. Bv United Free* MOSCOW, July 10.—Daring Soviet aviators are now initiating a fur carrying trade between the larger cities of Siberia and the remote and icebound shores of the Arctic Ocean. It is estimated that the airplane, because of its speed, is the most economical means of transporting furs from regions ■which are separated by hundreds or even thousands of miles of snow, ice and virgin forests. It Is planned to establish a regular air route, 2,000 miles long, be.tween Turukhansk and the larger Siberian centers. The airplanes will carry goods, medicine, powder and shot for the hunter tribes, and will bring back cargoes of furs. MARRIES WRONG MAN Kidnaped Bridegroom Turns Out to Be Stranger.

Moire-Ana
Till NE.I Service HOLLYWOOD, July 10.—The recent arrest of the proprietor and conductor of a screen make up school on a charge of annoying girls who sought movie employment from him is an indication of the rise in Hollywood’s standard of decorum. He kissed the girls, or attempted to. And the girls told on him. Straightway the make-up man was marched to the hoosegow—at the instance of the Better Business Bureau, which is a sort of chaperone at large in the film capital. Time was when many of moviedom’s middlemen —those who undertook or pretended to undertake the hiring of novices for screen companies—^considered the kissjng of applicants as a privilege of their trade. But that time is past. The more self-assertive girls began to protest these advances. Official Hollywood began to weed out the man who used real or professed authority as a guise for improprieties. Only a few of them still hang on at the outskirts of the industry. Kissing as a bribe for picture opportunity is becoming scarcer. Confining it to its place as a recognized emotional commodity before the movie camera has become a matter of better business. And most of the girls in the beginner ranks know enough to set up an outcry when an agent seeks to overstep the boundary of business. • * • College boys cannot or will not act "collegiate” when a movie camera is trained upon th'em. This discovery was made by Jack Conway, director of the excellent “Brown of Harvard,” after he had tested the genuine university youth by scores at Harvard, University of California, and University of Southern California. C-onway had to fall back on motion picture actors for the more intimate shots. • • • So desperately did Huntley Gordon yearn for great open space roles, following endless dress suit parts, that he trigged himself qut ala Bill Hart and had photos made of himself thus attired. This bait. Judiciously scattered among producers, has thus far resulted in two parts in which he is cast as a mining engineer. * * • Hollywood’s most hilarious recent party was a social gathering of the parents of Hal Roach's "Our GangT’ all attired in duplicate of their famous children’s duds. The slogan of the party was "So’s Your Old Man.” • • • Because of the risk to actor who will be required to work under sea in Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s '‘The Mysterious Island,” all players tentatively engaged are being gjven a courage test. They are asked, “Are you willing to go fifty feet below the surface of the ocean in diving helmets, relieving the company of all blame in case of accident or death?” Dread has already eliminated several candidates. But It must be said for the majority of actors ii> movies that they do not hesitate to assume the gravest risk. * * • Jack Holt, Jr., shares his famous movie father's love of horses. Recently he acquired ownership of a conveted pinto pony, by dint of arduous labors, such as picking snails in Florence Vidor’s garden, sweeping porches and weeding for Ernest Torrence, and sundry chores for other neighbor celebrities. But feeding a horse is more costly than buying one, young Holt discovered. He solved this problem of supporting "Saggie” In the manner y to which she was accustomed by renting the pony to picture companies. Both horse and owner are doing well.

HOME TOO MUCH LIKE HOTEL NOW By NEA Service NEW YORK, July 10.—The average American boy thinks: Home is a sort of hotel. Dad is too busy to be interested in him. School teachers treat him "too much like a baby.” Church is an impractical Institution. but useful socially. "Necking” mostly is first started by girls, not boys. These are some of the conclusions derived from a nation-wide questionnaire sent out to thousands of boys by the Y, M. C. A. and which are made public here for the first time. Lads Go to Finland Eighty representative American boys from thirty States will go to Helsingfors, Finland, this summer to present the results of the inquiry to a world-wide Y. M. C. A. conference. The delegation will be headed by Albert Cobe. a full blooded Indian boy of Lawrence, Kans. The boys will compare notes with 1,400 other delegates from fifty-one other countries were similar surveys of youthful opinion have been made. Besides home, school an<Vthe Job, the chief points of difficulty for boys are relations with girls and athletics, the survey disclose/ Confused Over Girls About girls a wild confusion of standards exist. In general, however, boys sex relations ought to be more openly discussed, that familiarity with girls is not best, and that girls who do not permit it are more respected. They are true sons of Adam in saying that frequently girls encourage such liberties. A group of Brooklyn. N. Y., 17-

year-olds outlined successive steps of familiarity as tnklng an arm when walking with a girl, kissing, "neck Ing," "petting.” The boye differed as to where to draw the line. Some thought it should be at kissing, others at “petting." When this group of boye met to discuss their views with a group of girls, hot debate ensued, which resulted in nothing but an observer's conclusion that "both sides seemed to have chips on their shoulders.” Not Enough Play As for play, the chief difficulty I" to get enough of It. In athletics, the sportsman's code prevails. Home is a disappointing place, ths survey finds, where neither the boy nor his parents take time to under stand each other. "It Is significant,'' the report “that few boya, if any. seem to associate tbeif- parents with home activities. “More Important, however, Is ths almost universal attltvde that horns is a place of neglect and unsympathetic restraint. Father, particularly, does not enter into tbs boy's life.” , But sometimes he does. "A Had should not expect his son to obey a command to go to church, when hs himself settles In sn easy chair with the Sunday paper," observe a group of Flanagan (111.) boye. f Youth is eager to take responsibility and suggest changes In the home. “Throw out the bathtubs and put in showers,” demand thirty New Yorkers. “Boys should have some say,” is a typical plaint, generally concerning playtltmes, evenings out and the choosing of friends. Many are convinc'd that boys without homes have more chance to "make men of themselves.’ Government, church-going. Jhe Industrial order, do not interest the boy. He reads Zane Grey, the aporting pages, and the Saturday Eve ning Post. He like wild west movies, but "sex" films go over his head. He dreams of being an actor or a wireless operator—and gets a Job in a garage. I
