THE CHINA MAIL THURSDAY SUPPLEMENT, FEBRUARY 18, 1937
WHISTLING ON THE PIANO
Under this heading last month we complet- ed a series of ingenious piano lessons which proved very popular with our readers. We have received numerous requests to continue this series. In this issue we are giving you a num- ber of popular songs transcribed according to the system on which the lessons were based.
Note: A mark over a number means to play that particular chord above the preceding num- ber. A line under a chord num-: ber designates that it should be - played below the preceding num- ber. Each number indicates a full chord in the right hand, the keys forming each chord in accor- dance with the lists of chord num- bers on the opposite page. As for

the left hand, while full bar- monizing chord combinations are given for the left hand on the op- posite page, it will probably be preferable, as well as easier, to play the full left hand chords only on the beats that are na- turally accented by the rhythm, leaving other beats either blank in the left hand or playing only the middle note of the full left. hand chord.

(Continued from Fage 2) necessity to a film career, and a valuable asset in any walk of life. The complexion of a seventeen year old girl is usually facetious. She has not yet passed beyond what we call the adolescent phase of her life, and the normal gland reaction to adolescence causes the tiny glands of the skin to pro- duce an over-oily condition. This usually leads to occasional skin eruptions that always appear just when the young lady has the most urgent need of a clear, beautiful skin.
Cosmetics are not a cure for this trouble, but one of their fun- damental purposes is to equalise the complexion and thus make them less noticeable. The appli- cation of a make-up foundation and the use of powder, rouge, etc. in everyday life helps to conceal the presence of blemishes, and the use of motion picture make-up hides them from the prying eye of the camera entirely.
The facial poise and self as- surance that comes to the young girl when she is properly made up makes a tremendous difference in the possibilities of her screen test. A screen test is to the young woman with cinema, ambition, what a charming social appear- ance is to her less professional- minded sisters,
The proper arch of the brows, the clear definition of the lips, the smooth regular complexion, and the arrangement of the hair control the feminine appearance altogether. When Mary, Frances Gifford was properly made up the

Miss Gifford is an unusual type. She has light golden brown hair and hazel eyes. Her skin has a suntanned cast to it, so that the proper choice of colours for her make-up is essential

If you have an odd or colouring, be sure that you make the most of it, and do not obscure it with a poor selection of make- up-colours. Light blonde hair with an olive skin calls for olive powder, blondeen rouge, and car mine lipstick. Black hair with a very fair skin usually goes best. with brunette powder, carmine rouge and carmine lipstick.
The choice, not only of colours, but of dress materials is of great importance in accenuating the personality of an actress. Some women wear velvet best, while others are suited better to satin. There are tailored types, and those who reach the high point of their beauty in filmy, fluffy garments.
Try selecting your dress ma- terial as sagaciously as you do your colours and makeup, and see if the ensemble isn't as pleasing as Miss Gifford's screen test. Try not to overlook the details, which all together, are the symbol of your personality, and whether your ambitions lead to Hollywood
