This information did not come so fluently as I have written it. Indeed, most of it was extracted by methods verging on the third degree. "I dont want to be a brass band for myself," he replied, with the curious halfsmile of his, when I urged him to reveal his life's history for publication. "It seems foolish for a man to babble about loving animals and books and athletic sports. 'Most every man does love them, but only picture players seem to boast of the commonplace. Yes, I ride, swim, play tennis and golf, and read as much as time permits, just as do all fellows who want to make good in life. Most of my friends are in other professions, and I enjoy associating with them because they give me an insight into the problems and conduct of men whom I will later present on the screen. If I confined my interest to the theater, my work would reflect the makebelieve, and I want it to reflect life." In the library of his studio apartment in New York, where he lives with his mother, Dick has a splendid collection of volumes. He has made a special study of the development of English literature, ranging from Richardson and Fielding to Wells, and he has also delved into the works of French authors. The characters of Dickens and Thackeray have been his constant companions, as testified to by the thumbed volumes of "Pendennis" and "David Copperfield." Just now he is interested in natural sciences and the contemporary drama. But he is by no means a moth of the student lamp — simply a well-rounded, versatile fellow and a typical product of the American university, democratic in his interests and friendships. I suspect, too, that he has a strong sense of humor, for when I asked him if he were ambitious to become a star, he replied, "Not a star — an actor." Life close-ups of film players may sometimes be disappointing, but not in the case of such fellows as Dick Barthelmess. He is of that thorobred type whose good looks and personality are reinforced by a trained mind. For that reason he is going to be a star, in spite of himself — elected by the will of the people who see him. Viola Dana Entertains Friends With— A Joke A number of women friends of Viola Dana, dainty little Metro star, were delighted the other day to receive neatly engraved invitations to a dinner party, to be given Miss Dana, so the cards read, at the Cafe des Enfants. A note enclosed with each invitation gave the address of the cafe and explained that it had just been opened in Los Angeles. The guests arrived promptly, several of them in limousines. The cars drew up before a white-fronted building. In the window a man in a white coat and cap was cooking wheat cakes and "sinkers." Inside, the surprised women found Miss Dana, her face alight with mischief. "Viola, dear!" one of the guests exclaimed, "there must be some mistake. Your card said 'Cafe des Enfant^' " "Yes," replied Miss Dana, grinning. "Cafe des Enfants is French for 'Restaurant of the Children' — therefore Quids'." After she had enjoyed her little joke, Miss Dana took the party around the corner to the Alexandria Hotel, where she had arranged a spread.
