Then the lads who playéd about with Hoot Gibson carried him | monogrammed handkerchiefs, dizzy socks, hectic ties and loud sweaters at a party which was considered a le- | gitimate reversal of form. Girls came | in later in the evening. A gay little Hollywooden innovation. Ukulele Ike contributes his share to hovelties by asking for custody of the | family dog in his forthcoming divorce. ‘That's a pretty good one, too, in a community where brains are paid for at phenomenal rates and where a joke | is worth more—providing it be original | —than in any other place under God's sun. Jack Gilbert confides to his intimates | in the early morning hours that love isn't all that it's cracked up to be. Ina Claire is yearning stagewards again.

I agreed—here was a lad who knew what it was all about . His assistant rushed up at this junc- ure. “That little girl you was talking about has just come on the lot, boss!” The famous director nodded be- nignly. “Yep—here she comes now.” (Turn- ing to me) “The boss says he could make a second Mary Pickford outa her. Look—ain't she like Mary though? A dead ringer for Mary . . ."” “A_very interesting c terjected the director, tremendous possibilities. “Yep, boss—just as you said—you could make a second Mary Pickford outa that kid if they'd give you a chance, .

Emerald green and siiver is one of the tamest types seen on these summer days. Flesh pink with maroon red fenders is another light whimsy.

In the rural districts of England sheep-shearing time is made the occa- n Devon particularly it is an age-old cus- tom that all neighboring farmers should unite to get the work done as quickly as possible. At the same time. they have some merry evenings. Each farmer is served in turn, all the other farmers trooping up to do the sheep- shearing for him. The “host” of the for it is his job to see that the others are happy and well served with bever- ages. A shearer does about 30 sheep in a day. The day's work is not fin- ished until well after dusk.
