Not only had she the whitest skin, the most amazing curves, the most sensa- Sional eyelashes and the superlative Aamount of “it,” but she wore orchids ®very day and sported emeralds of dramatic size. My idea of a movie beauty is a girl who does just these things. The con- | sistent return to normalcy among the ,stars may be-an interesting movement As a social gesture, but I like myvstars # be different from civilian girls. | I loved their bizarre frocks in the | days before conservative gowns became | & fetish with them. I loved their trick | of wearing plenty of glass to luncheon,\ even on the warmest days and with the | sportiest of frocks. When their golden curls slapped about their slim little necks and their rosy knees were dimp- lingly bared they were more interest- ing as a group than they are now, when they seem to be just so many debutantes | hurrying away from one luncheon to party. ‘They are hurrying away from lunch- | eon to get to pretty hard work, as a matter of fact, but they do look like so many of the scason’s crop of fun-lovers on-parade. Greta Nissen, who somehow always geminds me of a lustrous pearl, is re- turning to work for Winfield Sheehan | in a picture called “Women of All Na- tions.” One of her last Hollywood ap- pearances was with this company, when | she was cast in a Charles Farrell pic-/ ture, which neither suited Charles Far- | rel nor was much of & shakes as stories | go. It was called “Fazil,” and it limped along until ‘some bitter critic sug- | they name it “Pizzle.” After that Just sat down and gave over. | ‘The boulevard is picking up again. | Over the holidays it assumed the meek- | Dafly Cross-Word Puzzle | 180th meridian, chromium bands that it looked like a mechanical zebra, was tootling along in front of me. It bore the oval tri- colored plaque of France, and there was the most beautiful gentleman in it that I have ever seen. His flannels were royal blue. His beret of the same shade. Beneath the | softest - of leather coats one could spy clear larkspur-blue linen and an im- maculately white pecktie knotted with foppish looseness. His cigarette holder was a good 7 inches long and of white enamel. The traffic signals were kind. ‘We stopped abreast of each other, and the manicured hand which held the amazing holder had a ring of ivory and gun metal and two shades of gold which were the final word in moderne acces- sories. Thank fate for the return of very, very beautiful ladies and gentlemen to this colony! One grows so weary of the merely well groomed. ‘Things are picking up all around. The first opening, “Outward Bound,” which I saw a good two months ago or more in New York, brought out a good many of the stars, handsomely gowned, vith a fine display of furs and silver nd gold, although we had one of our| rainy nights. Now_that a reaction to the depres-| sion which has held this vicinity in its maw for so long has set in, we may look for several fillips to that charming folly which has made the Hollywood world different.
