The Stolen Models (1913)
Walter Clyde was having trouble with his models. He was trying very hard to paint a picture that would represent his ideal of femininity. Imagine the feelings of a man who wanted to paint a picture representing his ideal of womanly charm and grace when he discovered that his model chewed gum. Almost at the point of giving up in despair, Walter looked across the courtyard and immediately discovered a beautiful young girl. Walter seized his brushes and blocked in a rough outline on his canvas. Strangely enough the ideal of Femininity was also having trouble with models. She as it happened was looking for an ideal of masculinity. She wanted to paint the picture of a sturdy young man with a pipe in his month. Imagine the feelings of a woman who wanted to paint a picture representing her ideal of masculine strength and beauty, when she discovered her model smoked only cigarettes. One day when Walter had finished his picture from a number of stolen glimpses of his unsuspecting model, he sat down at the window and gave himself up to meditation, puffing slowly at his pipe. The girl whose name was Betty saw him and shrieked with delight. At once she began to paint him. When Walter laid aside the pipe and started in on a cigar, Betty managed to get rid of the latter objectionable weed by a dexterous manipulation of a long broom. Walter was surprised at the sudden disappearance of his choice Havana but since he did not have another, was obliged to go back to the pipe. Betty and Walter went to the exhibition on the same day and discovered each other's pictures hanging side by side. The rest was easy.
