He has a colored couple, and a Japanese man who has been with him for several years, and all are very competent. There's a young man secretary who comes every day to attend to his screen and radio fan mail, which is enormous. Then, there's the gardener. Dick keeps a close tab on every detail himself, and while he has no housekeeping budget, he tries to keep within a certain limit. With one of his cheerful grins, he said, "Sometimes I think I am working for my servants, good as they are, for I'm always running around picking up after them. Guess I'm fussy about some things. I don't like to see ash trays running over, or newspapers and magazines scattered around. I want the flowers to be fresh and the curtains hanging straight. I like order, with everything in its own place. Confusion always disturbs me."

Honestly, my plans at present consist of work, then more work. I want to go as far as I can on the screen and radio. After that? Well, we'll just let the future take care of that. Maybe it will be travel, maybe marriage and a family. Maybe both. Who knows?" Three-quarter length wraps, like this very smart sable worn by Gail Patrick, are vogue now. GOOD BYE CHAPPI LLO DIAMOND!
