Hollywood's Club de luxe, The Mayfair, which is held monthly at the Biltmore, closed its season for the summer. Filmland turned out en masse in the most brilliant attendance of the year. Renee Adoree and Robert Vignola were the two members of our party of interest to fans, Renee looking very beautiful in a close-fitting panne velvet gown. Her favor was a little porcelain dog that was having its tail bitten by a fly, and its expression was very droll. She named it Chico and took it home with her.
Evelyn Brent, all sun-tanned from her stay at Malibu Beach, looked perfectly fascinating in an ivory satin gown, very low in the back. And there were Irene Bordoni and Fay Bainter, both of whom have recently arrived in Hollywood to appear in films. There was June Collyer dancing with Buddy Rogers. Lina Basquette did a very clever solo dance. Bob Vignola asked Estelle Taylor why she didn't dance too, and Estelle said she didn't think she had better, because she didn't have on nice lace panties like Lina's.
But leave it to Bessie Love to do the clever thing! She appeared on the dance floor in a lemon moire gown that blended perfectly with her sun-tanned skin and golden hair. Her 'act' was a pantomime of a young person walking into a restaurant, waving to this acquaintance and that, powdering her nose, receiving an overture from an admirer to whom she had not been introduced, her surprise and complete rit^ing of the young man, and haughty exit. She wasn't on the floor more than two minutes at the most, but it was a performance. Bessie has a way with her! Besides being an artist, she is a fine technician, and everything she does is intelligent.

In the beginning of "Four Devils" you will see a little girl who takes the part of Janet Gaynor when she was a child. Her name is Dawn O'Day, and you want to watch Dawn, as she grows up. A good many people think that she will be one of those who will last. There is a wistfulness in her face and an atmosphere about her that makes her stand out from the other three very talented children, among whom is Phillippe De Lacey.
Seven years ago Dawn did her first picture. She was three years old and her part was almost as long as that played by the star, William Farnum. Dawn was called temperamental on occasion. It was her first picture, she wasn't a very experienced actress, and there were times when things had to be explained to her by her director, Mr. Herbert Brenon. Then Dawn would decide that she just couldn't act, and would leave the company flat — the $10,000 a week star, and all; and there was nothing that anybody could do about it!
Miss Garbo is not the first actress after all to say, "I go home now." Dawn's version was, "I am going to my
