success.
Bee, this business In which ! am
now engaged is the most fascinating
In all the world, perhaps because 1t
Is the greatest gamble. You stand
to win or lose millions on a big pic
ture and no one seems to be able to
guess with any degree OF surety
whether a picture will be success
or not until 1t has been passed upon
by the great amusement-loving
public.
Everybody works upon their nerves,
holding them so taught that they are
ready to sanp at any moment. 1t is
here you hear the widest stories; see
the meanest as we'll as the most gen.
erous acts. II is here where gossip
flows like Niagara; where jealousy
stalks; where people offer you friend
ship and stab you In the back. And
yet it is here where willing and kind
~ hands are extended to help you on
your way: where the most generous
speeches are made as to your ability:
where you make friends in an hour
that will last lifetime.
In short, this Hollywood that they
talk about, is a reality of greater and
more dramatic contrasts than ever
have been placed upon the screen.
