The Hollywood Divorce Ring (Con finned from page 57) lawyers will, with all refinement and delicacy, the consideration and gentlemanliness for which our legal luminaries are famous, search the statutes for only such charges as come well within the realms of propriety. Desertion, incompatibility, mental cruelty, non-support — d i str es s i n g commissions, of course, in their way, but in no wise reflecting upon the moral virtue either way of the parties implicated. T> he only conclusion we can draw from this genteel state of affairs is that the film fraternity is peculiarly free from the more vulgar form of infidelity. Society people, bankers, industrial magnates, yea, and even stage celebrities and operatic prima donnas, can claim no such immunity from this more unpleasant form of marital uniaithfulness. In all those walks of life there have been the most distressing exposures in recent divorce cases in which the immoral charges and countercharges have been hurled across the court rooms. What manner of people can these be? We know not their kind in filmland — at least hardly at all — and then the faux pas is usually committed by some painful person; whose familiarity with film ethics is obviously in doubt. Or possibly they secured the wrong lawyers. We decline to dwell upon these few glaring exceptions — they were not representative in any way of the finer and better standards of the screen industry. Judge ye not therefore upon the quantity of divorces in Hollywood — it is the quality that counts.
