142 Picture Show Annual Lillie Jackie Coogan houghl ihis house wilh some of ihe money he has made during ihe few years he has been on ihe screen. Alla Nazimoca's living-room is symbolic of ihis slar's love of luxurious simplicity. When Entertaining W HEN the film folk do enter- tain, they do a great deal of it at home, for, like their brethren of the stage, they are wonderfully generous and hospitable and very jolly. The types of enter- tainment vary widely, and various stars are noted for their various ways of pleasing their guests. Noah Beery, for inst;ance, is fa- mous for a particular form of entertainment which never fails in its object—a tribal dance by Indians. This, of course. tendencies, others with no particular style but plenty of originality. There they stand, all shapes and sizes, from Rudolph Valentino’s magnificent Italian villa in the Beverly Hills to the tiny Hollywood bungalow which contents the simpler tastes of Richard Dix. Although a great many stars remain true to Hollywood itself, many have their homes in the surrounding foot- hills. where they command a beautiful view, looking over Hollywood to the sparkling sea. Such homes are possessed by Antonio Moreno, Mary Plckford and Douglas Fairbanks, Valentino, Marion Davies, Harold Lloyd, Charles Chaplin, Corinne Griffith, and many more. These mansions frequently change hands, for the stars often possess restless temperaments, and, after occupying a square, formal, pretentious show-place, decided that they would like a change and built a low, rambling bungalow dwelling, to which they forthwith remove. (cy As the studios are situated for the most part in \yj\the quarters of Hollywood and Los Angeles which are not used by the elite as residential districts, most of the better-known artistes motor to and from the studios each day, except, of course, when they are on location. Home Life W HEN the stars are working, the majority of them live very quietly. They have to work hard for the money which keeps their beautiful homes going, as hard as any business man ; but they cannot, like him, let the strain of their work be apparent upon their faces, for loss of beauty means loss of prestige, and the camera has a ruthless eye for tiny lines round the mouth, puffy eyes, sagging muscles, and imperfect complexions. “ Early to bed and early to rise ” is a maxim strictly observed by the film players when they are working. Their relaxation at this time consists chiefly of outdoor exercise, for, besides providing enjoy- ment, it helps keep them fit and slender, and thus kills two birds with one stone, for in Hollywood frenzied war is waged against the demon Fat. So, before breakfast and in the evening, there are few stars who do not play tennis, swim, walk, ride, and take exercise in a dozen other ways, while some have gymnasiums fitted in their houses.
