Paul de Longpre takes great pride
in having the reception at his beauti-
full home. When interviewed today as
to why he made Hollywood his home
he said: after we came to America
we lived in New York ten years. We
were taken with the California fever
and moved to Los Angeles. There We
stayed for about two years. During
that time we Travelled all over South
| ern California in search of a place to-
make our permanent abode.
when passing through Hollywood,
then a mere village. we fell in love
with it as a residence place. Here We
spent our money in building this beau
tiful home and laying out these beau
tiful grounds. We have watched Hol-
lywood grow until now her inhabitants
| number almost 5000
