NOV -2 1336 The Smart Screen Magazine ©C1B 319113 ^ Delight Evans, Editor Elizabeth Wilson, Western Representative Tom Kennedy, Assistant Editor Frank J. Carroll, Art Director Watch for Our New Series: "Five Hollywood Wives' Hollywood wives! The eyes of the world are focused on them. You've been told that home life in Hollywood is no different than home life anywhere else; that wives in the film colony have much the same ideals, ambitions, joys and sorrows as wives in other towns. Well, Screen land has a different slant! The wives of cinema-city face problems that no other wives in the world are forced to consider; and the story of how they meet these problems is one of the most genuinely glamorous and fascinating of all Hollywood real-life stories. That's why we're beginning a new series about the gallant ladies who are doing such swell jobs keeping the Hollywood home fires burning! Screenland promises you exciting reading. There will be nothing dull about our first article in the series, called "The Career Wife." One of the loveliest wives in the screen colony is also a noted actress, and we have persuaded her to tell our readers the actual, intimate, day-by-day details of her problems in making a gracious home, keeping her husband and children happy, and also managing a lucrative career. Every woman will want to begin this series and continue it, and every man will find much to interest him in every article. Dorothy Manners, one of the more important writers in Hollywood, is the author. Remember: "Hollywood Wives" begins in the January issue, on sale December 3rd. December, 1936 Vol. XXXIV.
