# Page Analysis: Photoplay Magazine Advertising Section This is an advertising section page from *Photoplay Magazine* featuring a advice column called "Miss Van Wyck Says." The left side contains multiple personal advice letters from readers addressing fashion, beauty, and lifestyle questions—covering topics like hair care, clothing choices, and weight management. The right side shows a photograph of what appears to be two people in conversation, with accompanying text titled "Here's Where We Got Our Start," which appears to be a testimonial or advertisement. Below that are various classified advertisements for correspondence schools and business opportunities. The page functions primarily as an advice and advertising section rather than fiction content.

——_—— ——————_—— PHoTOPLAY MAGAZINE—ADVERTISING SECTION MISS VAN WYCK SAYS: In this de er. referred to will be answered by mail. This department is supplementary to the fashion pages conducted by Miss Van Wyck, to be found this issue on pages 34 ancl 33, Miss W., Texas.—Two very good colors for you—and for summer—would be Nile green and periwinkle blue, An evening frock of the latter would be charming, with a silver girdle. Apple green, tulip yellow,—how very springy these sound—would also be suitable shades. Mrs. L, O., Inotana.—Crochet your an- gora collar and cuffs in rib stitch, about four inches wide, unless you like the collar slightly wider than the cuffs; in that case make it six inches, Jessix R.—Ruffles tend to make the wearer look stouter, not slimmer, Do not wear your hair puffed over the ears. Try dressing it gather high, in a modified Spanish effect. The simpler your clothes and coiffure, the slimmer you will look, my dear, Anne.—Thank you for your sweet letter, I surely appreciate such praise, because it rings true. I am so very glad you are de- lighted with your dress made from one -of Le Bon Ton patterns, I am sure you will always be pleased with these patterns and wont be able to get along without them, Sweaters are still being worn for sports. R. I. ©. Catirornta—I wouldn't wear black gloves in summer. They might be more serviceable, as you say, but they would not be nearly so pretty as white, a very soft grey or beige. Unfortunately, it is rather difficult to find pretty things which are also practical; but it can be done, Crarise.—If you are tall and very dim, wear fluffy things. Soft hats; pastel shades, You should look very well in a cape, and capes are very smart. All the shades of brown should become you, Jade, orchid, mauve, blue—any of these shades for evening rather than black. Mrs. H—If your husband approves. of bobbed hair, by all means wear it. Many husbands do not! Bobbed hair is still being worn a great deal, principally by younger women. It is easy to care for and particu- larly becoming to the outdoors type of girl, which you siy you are. C. W. H., Denver.—t see no reason why you should not enter the Screen Opportunity Contest. The snap-shots you enclosed are very pretty and sweet. Do not send snap- shots to the contest; send a regular photo- staph. It is certainty worth trying for, this Opportunity. I have never heard of any- thing so fair and so attractive to promising young women, The ecreen is a wonderful profession, with unlimited possibilities, Dorormy, Sart Laxr Crry.—a sports skirt with sweaters is a solution of the before- afternoon summer problem. Ginghams are going to be worn again this season. A tweed Suit is always sensible and attractive. Taf- feta is not so good for warm weather. Marcaret S., Norra Avans, Mass.—You should use the shade naturelle in face pow- der. I have no objections to rouge if skil- fully applied. Do not, however, use a heavy make-up for the street or daytime. A healthy complexion is much more alluring ‘than cosmetics, particularly out of doors. rtment, Miss Van Wyck will answer all personal problems If stamped, addressed envelope is enclosed, your questions Jacovetmxe.—I do not advocate the curl- ing iron, Straight hair may not be momen- tarily as charming as curly hair, but if it is not naturally curly, it has an artificial look which is not at all pretty, Besides, curling the hair eventually deadens it. So, if you possibly can, wear your dark tresses straight. There are muny coiffures for uncurled hair, you know. Conmsne H., Lexc Istanp—Oi course your aunt is nght. Wear your hair down as long as you can. Once up, it can never come down again, my dear child, Sixteen is a very delightful axe, as those who have passed it always agree. Your aunt is a sensible person, I am sure; and if I were you I should accept her judgment in all things, for a year or two longer, anyway, Porty.—Why do you wear such vere things? You are the ingenue type, and ex- cept for office wear, should not confine your- self to tailleurs. The lighter colors are be- ing worn for the street this season. More and more the conventional dark blue is be- ing supplanted by the more youthful and frivolous periwinkle blue and tomato red and nile green and lavender. And it is a most satisfactory chanze. With your coloring you can wear almost any shade, Follow your inclinations in the matters of color and lines; you won't go far wrong. Rutn B., Lovtsvirte.—You are a lucky child. You can wear almost any [ype of dress and your coloring permits a wide range oF colors. From your photograph it would seem, however, that you are addicted to fuzzy hair. It is not particularly becom- ing, Ruth, and I should try to devise a sim- pler coiffure. Beatsice K., Evanston, Int.—Eat starchy foods—rice, potatoes, and bread. Drink milk and cream. Avoid acids. This should help you to increase your weight. I was chatting with Miss Rubye de Remer, the | charming film star—her designs by Le Bon Ton appear in the fashion pages in this issue —and she was telling me that she is putting on weight rapidly by practicing a series of exercises. Imagine the fortunate Miss de Remer—so many women are trying to lose weight, not acquire it. Incidentally, the blonde star has one of the most distinctive costumes I've ever seen—her dress and cape, photographed for us. Maxian.—Study your profile carefully be- fore you bob your hair. It is not a becoming style if you happen to have a large nose, for instance. Bangs are not good for everyone. Why cut your hair, Marian, if it is so long and curly? Remember it takes a long time to grow again. Karuenme H., Itmaca, N. ¥—Treat your skin in the following manner every night be- fore retiring. Wash your face with very hol water and a good ckin soap, working | the lather into the skin. The hot water will loosen the blackheads. After a few minutes rinse off the soap, still using hot water, and then apply cold water. Follow this if posible with an ice rub, to cloce the pores. During the day, before applying powder, use a good vanishing cream. I think this will help.
