Maid Tells ALL! Mae seldom goes shopping. As in the case of most stars, the shops are only too glad to send merchandise to her home on approval. But if she's buying a present for someone else she "goes right to the stoah and picks it out furst hand!" Besides Libby and the secretary, Mae employs a chauffeur. She doesn't drive, she doesn't care to. She prefers to sit back among the cushions and think up stories or dialogue. She says she never thinks better than when the wheels are rolling under her — her mind sort of keeps pace with those revolving wheels, and the driver will tell you that he can always tell her moods by the way she asks him to drive — fast or slow. The short distance between the car and Mae's dressing room requires from fifteen minutes to half an hour, not that Miss West is slow — you remember how she warbled, "I'm a fast moving gal what likes it slow"; but because everyone from the gateman to the president knows and adores her and isn't afraid to stop her long enough to say so. And their friendly greetings is Mae's morning tonic. Libby says "It peps huh up like nobody's business an' makes huh dimple all ovah!" Oh, Libby, Libby, you shouldn't have told us that! 1'Iense turn to VttKe Arty-eight by HARMONY HAYNES Mae West likes fussy lingerie; silks, satins and lace in delicate shades of pale pink, peach and turquoise blue and is extremely feminine in her tastes and habits JANUARY, 1934 33
