HOLLYWOOD, Calif., (N.AN.A) —Good many tags have been tied on Hollywood, but it s undoubtedly the place where the greatest number of Cinderella stories come true. Yesterday morning a little golden- haired 5-year-old girl arrived at the Harold Lloyd estate. A little blond of 6, whose curls were tied back in Alice- in-Wonderland fashion, ran out to meet the newcomer and kissed her fondly. Mildred Gloria Lloyd was welcoming her new little sister home. Marjorie Elizabeth, who will be known in the future as Peggy Lloyd came empty-handed to her new estate, She left behind the clean but shabby little frocks of her five riotherless years. She came to the most magnificent nursery the world has ever seen; she came to share equally with one of the greatest heiresses of cinemaland. The little girl, whom the Harold Lloyds will adopt today, has visited sev- eral times at he - new home—week ends and long afternoons of sheer delight; days when she came to adore the little girl who will be her sister and to love Harold Lloyd and Mildred, his wife, were nice visits. But yesterday eve) ing was different. Mildred Gloria Lloyd's entire possessions of every kind had been duplicated. There were two little pink and white beds where before there was but one; every frock, every row of tiny shoes, ready for all occa- slons; every toy had been bought in duplicate for the new small sister. Behind every tale of sheer joy there 8 & touch of pathos. Perhaps it is al- ‘ways this underlying shadow which in- tensifies happiness. In this Cinderella tale of Peggy Lloyd Mrs. Louise Sullivan of Pasadena is the protagonist of sor- yow. Her life work had been finding homes for little waifs. She cheerfully turned them over to pleasant surround- ings and empty arms. Then she saw small Pe; and resolved never to let her go. ost at this time the Harold Lloyds, looking for a little sister for Gloris, came to Mrs. Sullivan’s and fell in love with the beautiful 5-year-old. Mrs. Sullivan made the sacrifice. She gave the little girl up to a home of wealth, to a fairy tale existence of lux- ury, to & very sincere and genuine love bem‘—om quite as sincere as her own had September 1 exaggerated | Last Christmas Mildred Gloria was slven her own gymnasium, as perfectly tted as any star in the colony pos- sesses. There is her private pool, her small exercising machines, tiny shower and steam room. Most interesting of all, the newcomer matches in beauty the perfect features of baby Tloyd. But at the present tell- ir * there is a gyp.y wistfulness, a laugh- ing gleam in the little waif's eyes which promises the greater personality. Burton Holmes tells me he is having the time of his life making travelogues in sound in five languages—French, Spanish, Italian, German and English, ‘There is, it seems, an even greater derr d for the travel reel, now that the traveler may indicate certain things of interest in the fllm without the halt- ing introduction of lengthy subtitles. Holmes makes a brief personal pearance on the screen and then the film begins. As the ascene unrolls he becomes a voice backgrounding the film and vitally adding to its interest. He is off presently to catch the steamer Paris, which will take him to Europe in time for a view of the “Pas- sion Play” at Oberammergau. During rast years Holmes has made many visits to Oberammergau, always with camera in hand. When his cameraman pre- ceded him this year, Burton Holmes gave him, by way of introduction as a present to the village fathers, a reel of film. It is made up of glimpses of the “Passion Play” through a period of many years.. It not only served as an introduction but the people of Oberam- | mergau are showing it in a village the- ater, and the attendance is tremendous.
