A Blonde Old-Fashioned? (Continued from page 41) Hollywood Not to Blame I JUST wasn't happy," Jeanette says. "Hollywood had nothing to do with our separating. It would have happened 1 anywhere else, some time . . ." Jeanette is old-fashioned. She hopes to marry again. It looks very much as though she will. She wants a home and babies. She 'believes in the virtue of women and in the chivalry of men. She has never had an unpleasant experience with the much-advertised hunters of Hollywood damosels. She doesn't believe unpleasant experiences 'are necessary. She believes that a girl can get along in Hollywood and remain "a good ■girl," too. She thinks that men are nice to ■girls, if girls are nice with them. She ought to know. For she was a married woman when she came here. No one knew that she I'was married.

Sad" and "Expensive" : " Your favorite bird?" Jeanette: "The blue love-birds. Tney are so tender and so gentle and so sad. I think I must care about sad things." G. H.: "Your favorite jewel?" Jeanette: " Now I begin to get expensive. The diamond. It is the only jewel that means anything to me. Engagements. Promises." G. H.: "Your favorite city?" Jeanette: "Berlin, so far.
