40 THE MOTION PICTURE DIRECTOR A u g u s t BEHIND TO OUR old friend Lew Cody — the Spirit of Beverage Hills — goes the India-rubber Gardenia for possessing the “duallingest” dual Personality in the films. Gentleman of dignity and restraint . . . Hail fellow well-met. A home with exterior walls of cold grey cement . . . An entrance door of flaming red. A Living-room of cheerful colors inviting comfort, good fellowship ... a Diningroom of dignified old Mahog Home of Mr. Lew Cody Furnishings and Decorations by Be-Hannesey Art Studio Hospitable Dignity; An unusual treatment is accorded this Dining room in the absolute absence of all floor covering, the inlaid floor adding to the richness of the Antique-finish Mahogany furniture. The hangings are of golden silk Pongee, fringed in black. Warm Friends; A cozy fireplace of rough brick, enhanced with old iron and a beaten-copper fire screen.
