97 as a part of a coveted corner lot. She expected to speculate with the property. But she finds the garage so lucrative that she doesn't want to part with it. For, despite her flapper ways, little Viola is a very good business woman. She goes down there between pictures, to oversee the business, and woe betide the man in charge if he hasn't properly attended to his work. Swimming is another thing Miss Dana never finds enough of. She drives to the beach almost every day in summertime, and even promotes moonlight bathing parties between pictures. A tall, athletic young picture actor sometimes "^companies her on these swimming % but often as not she goes alone, pai.vs her car, gets her bathing suit, and swims out beyond the breakers. She is a strong swimmer, and quite unafra 1. One day she struck an undertow y ?le swimming, and was hauled ashore by a lifeguard, but she never was terrified afterward, as one would imagine, but calmly went in next day. •Looking after the education and welfare of her little five-year-old daughter is what Florence Vidor does between pictures. She is a wonderful mother, is Mrs. Vidor, even though she is also a very fine actress. Little Shirley Mason will probably never get over being a kid. Between pictures she recently papered her dressing room with white paper, doing the work herself. Then she cuts out favorite magazine covers which she had been saving, and pastes them on the walls ! She has lately been vacationing in New York. The prize has to go to Mae Bush for between-pictures employment. She recently went to work in a department store as a clerk, and afterward as a cashier in a cheap restaurant !" At least so her press agent says. George Walsh Likes Swimming IWIMMING is George Walsh's favorite recreation. He swims a lot in the Fairbanks' pool in Beverly Hills. James Kirkwood, another Goldwyn star, has been assiduously courting Lila Lee between pictures. What he will do, now that she is his, remains to be seen. It is likely that he will build a home, in which case both he and Lila will be busy between pictures overseeing its erection. Lew Cody doesn't pretend that he is painfully highbrow all the time — and very much likes to spend some of his time dancing and motoring with Peggy Eleanor or Priscilla Bonner. Bebe Daniels loves visiting her grandmother, once herself a Spanish beauty, who dwells on a ranch in Glendale, a Los Angeles suburb. Here Bebe spent much of her childhood, and here she loves still to ride the ranch horses and to drive her car on the country roads. Bebe has lately taken an interest in aviation, and expects to be able to throw a mean stick within a few weeks. Pola and the Grand Canyon i verybody knows that during the past few months Pola Negri has spent her time between pictures with Charlie Chaplin, going to theatres, playing golf, and helping him to decide between French and Elizabethan period for his dining room furniture. But now, in chastened spirit, Pola is planning a vacation in the Grand Canyon, in company with Kathlyn Williams, during which she expects that quiet communion with nature will make her forget there ever was such a person as the fascinating but fickle "Sharlee." Rod he Rocque Likes Golf w hen Rod Le Rocque finishes his role in The Ten Commandments, he plans to devote two solid weeks to golf preferably at some secluded resort such as Del Monte. Whether he will actually get that far away is doubtful, but there is no doubt about the golf. Richard Dix gets only an hour or two between pictures, he declares, but those hours are devoted to supervising the building of a house on a lot recently purchased by him in Hollywood. There's nothing you can tell Priscilla Dean about period furniture, Oriental rugs, or the cost of same. She has been spending every spare moment furnishing her new home in Beverly Hills. Alice Terry dotes on keeping house between pictures. She herself prepares food for her husband, Rex Ingram. Anyway, she says so. "But he can cook better than I can," exclaims Alice, "and when I don't get things just right, why he goes out into the kitchen and fixes up something himself." Miss Terry also spends a good deal of time in motoring about Hollywood. Dorothy Phillips Dances ►etween pictures, Dorothy Phillips studies classic dancing and looks after her home, which is also that of Allen Holubar, her husband. She expects to have her little daughter with her this summer, according to custom. The little one lives with her grandmother, in the east, during the remainder of the year. Agnes Ayers spends her leisure time in motoring, and in looking after her little niece, Agnes, Jr., her brother's A PERFECT NOSE dm™ The Genuine— Patented Nose Adjuster SEND NO MONEY Winner of Gold Medal.
