Yours is the kind of letter I like — especially the part where you say I seem nearer to you through my pages in Screenland than the stars. Of course you mean the studio stars; I understand. Thank you. Ronald Colman was married to Thelma Ray, an English actress: but they are divorced. Richard Dix isn't married and never has been, although Richard is reported engaged regularly. Dix works at Paramount's Astoria Studio. And how. Gerry. Yes — Douglas Gilmore is now with Paramount and works at the Lasky Hollywood Studios. You probably did see him on the stage; he first played the reporter in "Liglitnin' " with_ Frank Bacon; then he was Elsie Ferguson's leading man in "The Varying Shore"; with Helen Hayes in "We Moderns"; and in "Top Hole". Metro-Goldwyn sent him to California, where he played in "Paris" and "The TaxiDancer", both with Joan Crawford; and also on the stage in "White Cargo". Now he's devoting himself exclusively to the films. Born in Chicago and educated at the University of Chi. And I can't think of another thing to tell you about Douglas.

Aren't you emotional! Sic Transit Gloria Swanson, whatever that means. Keep your eyes open for your idol; after her long sojourn in the east she has returned to your dear California to make pictures for six months. "Henry" — or la Marquis de la Falaise de la Coudraye — went along, of course. This noble pair is as devoted as ever. For "The Love of Sunya" — don't you know yet that Gloria is now a United Artists star, having left Famous Players far behind? And that reminds me — Gloria's former bosses have decided to change the official name of their famous organization to Paramount-FamousLasky — just to give this poor Answer' woman a little more work, maybe. Jello. Where did you ever get the idea that John Gilbert is retiring from pictures? Can't a poor star — poor, comparatively speaking you understand — indulge in a little attack of appendicitis once in a while? Jack left the M-G-M Studio for several weeks' rest after his illness — believe he dashed up to Canada: but he is back on the "lot" now making "Twelve Miles Out".
