HOLLYWOOD, August 290 (N.AN.A.). ~*“Lon Chaney, true man, true friend, at man, we greet you—we bid you well—we welcome you home.” A grief-stricken group heard Chap- Jain Dyer of the United States Marines read a simple service in a quiet chapel in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon. The group which listened was such o any well Joved person might have called forth to say farewell. Outside a surg- ing mob filled the street and housetops and the adjacent ways. For them a t actor wasWiead. Those inside lew that they had lost a great friend. No funeral service as tragic has ever entered the annals of the cinema pro- fession. The men who have worked with Chaney believed he did not know that he had a fatal malady. Yet ‘Wednesday Sam and Jack Peinberg, his studio musicians of the old silent days, kindly man whom they all had reason to love, tears streamed unchecked down their faces. As each paused at Chaney's side a palsied soldier in overseas cap raised a vhite cotton-gloved hand in stiff salute the whild his frame shook with agony. For years he had scld flowers on the Metro lot, and out of the monotonous pattern of his day's life spun one central figure in gl 7ing col- ors—Lon Chaney, whose sympathy and kindliness and friendsh’ glorified a stricken soldier’s life. “One star differs from another star in glory,” read the chaplain. Lew Cody dropped his face into his hands. Tears streamed from Billy Haines’ eyes. Clff Edwards’ round counténance was dis- torted with grief. M- ice Costello was carved from granite. Ruth Roland sobbed aloud. True, one star differs from another star in glory, but in hu- " | manity this star differed from the: all.
