My Daughter, Jeanette MacDonald (Continued from jinee twenty-eight) "But I won't be among strangers — I'll be with Blossom." She couldn't give up school at fourteen. "But I won't have to give up school. I can go in New York. Mr. Weyburn will make arrangements with the principal so that I can be excused for a matinee on Wednesday." Her music — she must not sacrifice that either. "Oh no, indeed! There is a piano backstage and I can practice there just the same as if I were right at home." A Career at Fourteen • No Matter What objection I raised, she had it over-ruled. I asked her father and, like most fathers where girls are concerned, he left the matter up to me. I didn't want to be a foolish mother and stand in her way — maybe this was an opportunity — surely she must have something or she. would not have been offered a chance when so many girls were begging for one. I finally let her go. She kept her word about school and her music lessons. From that time on her rise has been gradual but sure. She studied hard and worked hard and she still does. Every day she is not working, she takes a voice lesson — and sometimes when she is working if she can steal an hour from the set. She studies piano also — not that she ever expects to make professional use of the knowledge, but because she enjoys it. Jeanette had played in Yes, Yes Yvette. It was purchased as a talking vehicle for Richard Dix, to be screened under the title of Nothing But the Truth. Jeanette was tested for the feminine lead but her manager would not permit her to accept film work. She was disappointed but resorted to the old form of courage — everything happens for the best — and in this case, it did. This strange dog is a Bedlington Terrier named Piper, brought to Jeanette MacDonald by Robert Ritchie, her business manager. Romance rumors about them are all in error. The real lad is Gene Raymond 48 In Rose Marie, currently being shown everywhere, Jeanette plays the role of an opera singer in love with a Mountie. This is a scene from her Romeo and Juliet number She Enters Films © The Role Opposite Mr. Dix did not amount to very much. It was a straight part and would not have permitted Jeanette to use her talent as a singer. Six months later when Mr. Lubitsch was looking for a girl to play opposite Maurice Chevalier in The Love Parade, he looked at that old test and sent for Jeanette. That was in 1929 — since that time she has been working m pictures steadily except for a concert tour through Europe. Jeanette has always been a very busy person. She seldom takes time to rest or to thoroughly enjoy the profits of her success. She is forever trying to perfect something, or to learn something new. She does enjoy her swimming pool. She also enjoys tennis but doesn't play as much as she would like simply because she never had time to perfect her game and she isn't the sort to do anything unless she can do it well. HOLLYWOOD
