"Mix them in a hat and you have my religion," says Dick. "I just try to practice simple Christianity." Irene Rich was brought up in the Episcopalian church, but is not now a regular attendant. She says she feels nearer to God now when she is swimming far out into the ocean, or taking long walks in the woods — out in the heart of Nature, from which she has evolved a simple philosophy of her own. Virginia Cherrill, Charlie Chaplin's leading lady in "City Lights," is Church of England and was educated in Episcopalian convents. Edna Purviance, his former leading lady, started out as an Episcopalian, and loves the ritual "of that church, but she, too, has acquired a "personal, private religion" of her own now. Joseph Cawthorn, who may be starred as the male Marie Dressier, belongs to a long line of Church of Englanders, and has a brother who is an Episcopalian rector. But Mrs. Cawthorn is a Catholic, so he frequently accompanies her to her services. Mrs. Cawthorn says that Joe is "a Christian gentleman through and through." And the same may be said of dear old Alec B. Francis, who attends church regularly, speaks before the Church Fellowship, and is a personal friend of the Bishop of his Diocese. Other faithful Episcopalians are Esther Ralston, Ronald Colman, and Anthony Bushell — Anthony having several clergymen in his family back in England. George Arliss is also Church of England. George Fawcett says he was a faithful Episcopalian for years, but now simply reveres all religions, observes the Ten Commandments, and earnestly believes in prayer. Ethel Wales began as an Episcopalian, but says she has marked leanings toward Christian Science now, and believes in the power of the mind over destructive thought. Doris Lloyd belongs to the Church of England but often attends Unity lectures. Clive Brook, Mary Forbes, and Ralph Forbes all profess the Church of England faith. Clara Kimball Young tells me that she has studied all religions, oriental and occidental, and is more partial to that of the old Persians, which is similar to the Unitarian. She believes that "all conceptions are immaculate," vide Bernard Shaw, but does not accept the power of prayer. Her husband, Dr. A. S. Forman, however, insists that he is an Atheist; that all life will soon be created in a laboratory. Joe E. Brown favors the Golden Rule as his fundamental creed, and Mrs. Brown says he lives up to it. Little Evalyn Knapp also holds for the Golden Rule, and believes in a God which might also be called the "Creative Mind." She talks of "our individualized universal mind" and believes that we are all the result of our thinking. Louise Fazenda is an ardent Golden Ruler and successfully works out a practical line of conduct for herself. Lawrence Tibbett believes in a religion of joy and beauty and our duty thus to express life. Will Rogers is deeply religious although he marches under no specific label. Marie Dressler's religion is the simple creed of doing as one would be done by. Greta Garbo was raised as a Swedish Lutheran. John Wayne attended Methodist schools and colleges. Little 17-year-old Barbara Weeks feels that Universal Love is the essence of religion. Barbara also takes astrology very seriously as a guide in her career. Harold Lloyd was brought up in the Christian Church and was married to Mildred Lloyd in it, but he, too, says the Golden Rule is his essential creed. Noah and Wallace Beery were both raised in the Christian Church ; Noah was married to his Marguerite in her Episcopalian church. Charlie Farrell comes from good old Quaker stock. He and Hedda Hopper are the only two Quakers among the screen stars. Charlie Mailles and Claire McDowell are earnest Presbyterians and attend church regularly with their boys. Lawrence Grant says he dislikes the word "religion," as he thinks it is tinged with satisfied dogma. "Faith," too, he feels indicates a blind acceptance of the improbable. But a well-grounded "belief" is important to us all. "There is no material waste in the world. Life is everlasting," he says reverently. Nor does this list include them all. Several, like Ann Harding, preferred not to discuss their religion for publication, and yet have abiding faiths. Even Lilyan Tashman, who always plays somewhat hard-boiled roles, says she earnestly believes in the essential importance of doing unto others as one would be done by. All those who wished to be omitted from this story, nevertheless held to various religious faiths, while preferring to regard them as a strictly private matter. The Catholics are so strong in Hollywood that they even publish a fan weekly, surely the only one under church auspices. The next strongest faith is Christian Science, the third Episcopalian, with the individualists a close fourth. Next come Judaism, the Christian Church, Presbyterian and Methodist, in that order, with only two discoverable Quakers in Hedda Hopper and Charlie Farrell. The first two named are the most regular and earnest attendants at their churches and the most willing to proclaim their faith. The reason given by some picture players for not wishing to make known their religion was "the narrow-mindedness of the fan readers" whose prejudices might be aroused. We are confident that no such fears are justified. Americans have long since agreed that there are many roads to Heaven ! Tom Meighan comes back. Here he is with Mrs. Meighan — Frances Ring. Tommy will be in " Young Sinners" for Fox.
