GERVAISE GRAHAM Oept. m-10 25 W. Illinois St. Chicago, III. You may wonder, glancing at this bird's-eye view of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, that the streets of this prosperous city appear so deserted. But that's simply because the movies haven't let out yet Your Neighbor Says (Continued from page 41) was just colorful. There was beauty about it — just as there is beauty about everything and everyone in Hollywood. A sophisticated beauty. Even the schoolgirls don't look like the girls at Shippen's. "That was my first day's impression of Hollywood. By this time I had arrived at the firm conviction that Hollywood was a great place to commute to from Lancaster — often." In the week that followed, Betsy took in all the Hollywood places of interest — to a nineteen -year-old girl. The Montmartre for luncheon — the Roosevelt for tea — Henry's for supper — the Russian Eagle for high prices. She saw them make movies on the street. Saw funny-faced comedians kick cops in the shins and get away with it. Saw Clara Bow boldly vamping Richard Arlen in front of a bank building — because the director told her to (the movie director, not the bank director). Saw an old Italian selling Yankee pop-corn. Watched Leatrice Joy buying her baby a hat. Listened to two girls discussing Joan Crawford's hennaed hair. One day someone asked her out to Noah Beery 's trout ranch. But Betsy would like very much to tell you about that visit herself: NOAH'S PLACE LIKE HOME I HAD expected that all the movie stars would be there," she went on. " I rather had the idea that where one movie star went the others would be gathered around. But after driving hours out to Mr. Beery's estate I found practically no other celebrities present. Mr. Beery said he and his wife didn't care much for big professional parties and I noticed that the other guests were just plain folks like myself. "If all the movie actors are like Noah Beery, it would be easy enough to believe what the press agents tell us, that they are just folks. Mr. Beery was so friendly and hospitable and showed us all over his property. He is typical of Hollywood, but somehow or other he is like Lancaster, too. My own dad and mother couldn't have been more concerned about making their guests happy and comfortable than the celebrated Mr. Beery. "We spent the entire day fishing and when evening came on we all gathered around the huge fire and waited while our catch was prepared for our dinner. Wild Hollywood party, nothing! It was more like our picnics in Maple Grove Park back home." Betsy said she was going home in about a month and she says she has a lot of things to tell them back there — not counting the experience encountered with the democratic Mr. Beery. She's got little personal things that are to be heard only by the girls at Shippen's. She's going to get all those anxious young ladies who want to go in the movies to one side and say something like this to them: ADVICE TO THE SCREENSTRUCK IF you think it is going to be easy to go to Hollywood and get in the movies and be a star and have your picture shown back home at the Capitol Theatre down on Queen Street, get it out of your head. You know you're lazy and movie stars have to get up at six in the morning. Besides, you know your mother wouldn't let you wear those negligees like Olive Borden wears. And you know your father wouldn't want you staying up all hours taking what they call re-takes late at night. There are prettier girls than you in Hollywood and they're doing extra work, or waiting on tables in a restaurant. Just because you are a hit in the school dramatics, don't get yourself mixed up with Greta Garbo. If I were you, I think I would marry Tom or Dick or Harry and maybe you could take a little honeymoon trip out to Hollywood." I got the idea that Betsy felt about Hollywood the same way the hick felt about New York. In other words, "It's a great little place to visit." 104
