"I don't think anyone can be a failure socially if he or she is generous with affection and praise. If you take it upon yourself to be a stern critic of others, and to regally pass judgment, you're going to be classified as exasperating. Divert all the energy that takes into acquiring an open mind, and then your curiosity will stamp you as fascinating — because you will have the talent for listening to what others say with genuine interest. "Any man or woman — in order to be a successful person — must project his or her own individuality in a manner that will draw out people. Dullness is a disease that can and should be outgrown. But don't expect a miracle to happen. You have to create whatever charm you have, yourself. You have to overcome selfishness and self-centeredness — f o r that will repel anyone you want to attract. Pessimism should go, too — and since it's a 'rut-habit' it can be eliminated by substituting its opposite. To be fascinating, your first step is to be come fascinated in what others say. Resolve to be pleasant company — and you can acquire a lot from there. A merry disposition is more valuable than a beautiful face or figure. A thoughtfulness and consideration of others is one of the best talents you can develop. "I don't believe you can whip off to a party and fall in love with someone at first sight. I don't think real love comes that way. It is something you must grow into, as you are ready to give all it requires. I feel pretty much the same way about falling into good friendships. You have to work at being a friend and make a big contribution in selflessness. You can't expect to sit back and receive admiration, loyalty and devotion without doing your part. "A good host or guest reputation in Hollywood or anywhere else doesn't demand that you be stunning, or young, or spectacular. You can't get by on wealth or family background. It's the kind of person you are and how generous you are as a person that matters — that makes people like you and that will make you a success wherever you go." Males, Marriage And Me! Continued from page 23 one else possibly could be to read I go so many places. Actually, I'm not on a merry-go-round with men either while making a picture or between films. I know it isn't customary for an actress to say this, but here I go being impulsively frank. I don't go out very much. I haven't, as I write this, had a date for several weeks. I'm not glad about it. The woman who hasn't found her man yet is always the victim of chatter, I suppose. In my case, the recent theory spread about in print is that I am secretly married. I am not secretly married. There is no earthly reason for me to be a private bride. If I had a husband, I'd be very flattered. I'd feel so honored I'd tell everyone who cared about me my big news. I would like to be married, but I have no immediate plans. I think one should wait for the right mate, and I feel that when one is truly ready he'll come along. I don't think one has to rush into passing romances, in Hollywood or Keokuk, just to demonstrate she can be popular. I'm all for glamour, but not for phony versions of it. Glamour should mean Excitement, and it can be based on vividness. Then it doesn't wear off. It packs a punch in any locale, and isn't a candy-box sweetening. You have glamour if you can make people laugh or cry and feel deeply. Camera beauty has little to do with it. So it follows, to my way of figuring, that it isn't what others say about your romantic record that counts. It's what you can legitimately say of yourself when you quietly chalk up your accomplishments. If you compromise easily, you may not have any real ones. There are many things you must do as part of your business life. You can't alter a whole industrial set-up to suit your own whims about it. But you can keep your personal life entirely separate from an office, shop, factory, or yes — a studio job. I don't agree with all the warnings about marriage between an actor and actress being a frightful risk. Why should it be? I get along fine with actors. We do the same sort of work, so we definitely understand one another's challenges and dilemmas. We invariably have so much in common to discuss. I'm never bored debating the pros and cons of the theatre and the movies. I know this would be a horrible fate for a man with no interest in show business, and that's why I don't think I'd marry such a man. "They say there is far too much competition between an actor and an actress for harmony in the same household. This I don't get, either. I don't see any competition. An actor is male and an actress is female, and neither can be the other. They complement and complete one another as a team. While I'm on the subject of harmony, I realize that a bachelor girl like myself is going to have to alter her own ways to fit in with a man around the house. I count on doing that. I suspect I'll have to stop hanging stockings up to dry in the bathroom and leaving makeup traces. Most males are so much neater than women. I think we women should respect our man's notions, and that means adjusting to minor preferences. I expect to lead the brand of life my husband likes, in short. I don't mind cooking occasionally, but I'm not crazy to cook. However, when I'm in love enough I'll become the equal of a French chef if 60
