You ask me il l think that the
marriage Of Miss Pola Negri and
Mr.. Charles Chaplin will be an
ideal one. do. They seem to me
to complement and supplement
each other in every conservative
way. Their future ought to be
whatever they choose it to be and
they start off with the comfortable
fact that the world is already at
their feet, and hopes that they will
be happy and win do anything in
It's power to make them so.
But happiness is transient and
biology is eternal. And the thought
of the children which might be
sent to bless their union is very
exciting. Miss Negri is to the
screen what Duse was to the stage.
1t is not only possible but probable
that Mr.. Chaplin is one of the
great creative artists of all time.
If the children don't have extra
ordinary minds the biologists will
have a lot to explain. Might not
the children inherit their mothers

words and she understood even the
ones that we didn't. If / said all
the things that think about Pola
Negri, about her quietness, her re-
ticence, gentleness, beauty, Mr..
Chaplin might not like It, because
he knows so much better how to
say such things about her himself.
Il cannot conceive Of a marriage
more suspicious or hopeful from
every point Of view.
