"It is making a onderful improvement in my bust." love at first sight and they lost no precious time in hastening to a parson. Their happiness is proof that a whirlwind courtship can weather the years. After the World War, the bitter realities of the battlefields having taught him to demand his own heritage from life, Leslie Howard tackled his suppressed desire— the stage. Inhibitions gradually were conquered as he painstakingly rose to fame of an international scope. He refers to Mrs. Howard as "The Indispensable." That she truly has been ; an ideal wife and a splendid mother. Never an actress and ambitious only for him, she has built her life around his welfare. Because he is child-like in his extraordinary simplicity and trustiness, her business acumen and habit of protecting him from chiselers has been no small help towards his success. A master of romance on screen and stage, a contented husband, his statement that romance and marriage do not mix is provocative. "I have gone in for romance in my acting. It intrigues me as much as it interests theatre-goers. And yet I find it incompatible with a happy marriage !" All along we've been reading that one should retain that romantic air, nourish it assiduously, to hold love ! "The essence of romance is sex appeal." according to Leslie Howard's logic. "If you want perpetual romance, you'd better avoid matrimony ! It's like firing a gun. Romance flares just as a bullet shoots out of the barrel. At first the thrill is overpowering. But it is bound to diminish and, eventually, to cease. "There has to be much more for marriage. There is an impetus of mutual attraction, surely, but other things have to enter in. Respect, for example. Common bonds of ideals, a sympathy with your mate's ambitions and desires. Family ties. Familiarity — which is not romantic ! "I'm not denying that romance, the spell of the unusual and glamorous, isn't fun. It is tantalizing. That's why screen lovers are continually on the spot. They are apt to hop from the comfortable frying-pan of permanent marriage into the fire!" Mr. Howard, furthermore, does not deny that he's been on the so-called spot himself, at times. But he always has weighed the consequences and discovered that the love of his wife and children is a possession too dear to risk losing. He confides that, actually, he grows less and less romantically inclined as the years pass. He says it would be hypocritical to argue one is not tempted, but mentions that he has the marvelous faculty of foreseeing results. He's glad he has such clarity of vision ! So far as he is affected, the only kind of person who is romantic is the one who is supremely honest. "It is honesty, not mere beauty, which makes one exciting. Every man and woman has certain original, rare qualities. Develop these to their utmost and you have a real personality !" Mr. Howard feels deeply about this. Endeavoring to mold yourself to suit everyone is disastrous in his estimation. "The vital, novel personality is the one inspiring romantic attentions. You don't have to be mysterious, either. Take Greta Garbo and Norma Shearer. To me both are exceedingly romantic, and yet they are opposites. Garbo's is the lure of the unknown. Miss Shearer is frankness personified. You seem to know all about her at your initial meeting. Still, she is equally as captivating as the other woman. "The reason, of course, is that each has had the bulldog courage to be herself. Neither follows. They have studied themselves, made friends with themselves, and then have proceeded to scorn imitation.
