No Secret Marriage This Time (Continued from page 30) every actress receives, but everywhere I went I wished John were with me. I couldn't keep him out of mind. I could hardly wait to get home. "The first night upon my return, we talked seriously about marriage. Had we been on the desert, doing the simple things we loved, there would have been no misunderstanding. But we were in Hollywood where life takes on a different perspective. "I guess the atmosphere of the luxury and extravagance of my New York trip still clung to me. "Instead of Pat Lane, the girl with whom John fell in love, I was Priscilla Lane, the movie acti-ess. "John showed little enthusiasm for the extravagant plans I mapped out for our future. "He had nothing to say to my, 'I want this. We must have that.' He knew the things I was planning would not bring lasting happiness. "There was no arguing, no scolding. John is the most unselfish and understanding person in the world. He said he didn't want to stand in my way. That I had a right to do and have what I wanted. But he thought, under the circumstances, it was best to call the whole thing off. " 'I'll go back to the desert,' he said. 'You will always know where I am if you want to get in touch with me.' "I was miserable. I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep. "In three days I knew that nothing or no one counted but John. He was in Hollywood in less than three hours after I telephoned him. SINCE then there have been no more doubts, no more misunderstandings. The way ahead lies straight and clear. Each of us has certain work to do, obligations that must be fulfilled. "John respects and admires anyone who accomplishes something worth while, whether it's making hats or acting before the camera. "He is proud of my success and eager to help me, just as I am proud of his success and eager to help him. "He doesn't want a housekeeper for a wife. He knows I will never be the little woman who stays home to make the beds and wash the dishes. "He understands what my home in Hollywood means to me. The home Rosemary and I gave Mother. He knows it is here I will live while I am making a picture. That it is the place he will share with me when I am working. "Our home — John's house and mine — John will build on a high knoll overlooking Yucca Loma. We have gone so far as to stake out the big front room, the dining room and the bedrooms. There will be a patio and a big lawn and a flower garden. "That is as far as we have planned. Until John knows where he stands in the draft, we can do nothing more. Neither of us thinks it wise to marry if he is called into the Army. Since he is thirty-five years old, it may be that he will not be called. "Whatever comes, this we know: We have set a firm foundation for our life together and waiting will not weaken it. We will be married as soon as the time is right — married in this room, with both our families present. When that time comes we will be so happy that we will want all the world to know."
