LETTER FROM BEATRICE GRIM
SHAW SUMMERS TO SALLY
ATHERTON
DEAR SALLY:


DEAR SALLY:
Well, Here 1 am, at this notable
and notorious Hollywood, and up to
date it does not seem very much diff
ferent from any other city of 120,-
600 inhabitants, except hat it's al
most unbelievably beautiful with its
frame Of purple foothills reaching
up to the -White-capped, soft gray
mountains beyond. You drive
through street after street lined
each side with gorgeous pink and
blue and green and gray and yell
low bungalows that look like great
doll houses set back on lawns of
green dotted with flowers Of every
kind and hue.
1 am delighted with it, and L am
really mad about my little hilltop
home which Dick purchased before
he went east.
We drove directly from the sta
ton to the house. Dick had told me
nothing about it. l was greeted at
the door by a Jap houseman and a
Colored cook.
AS we crossed the threshold after
viewing all Los Angeles which lay
behind us from the veranda outside,
Dick said: Welcome, Bee. to your
home" and going to the mantel he
took from it a little box in which
was the deed to this lovely place
made out in my name.
NNToe~'+ Ao 1oor p. tbfnL. Of +b{eO
He had put hat box IN that mantel
before he left, and planned the
whole dramatic Homecoming. No
wonder they want him in moving
pictures!
1 wish you could see it all. dear
girl. Through a regular tangle of
trees and shrubs you go up a wind
ing walk Of steps and fiat places
made of brick until you reach an
outdoor staircase OF old Spanish
wrought iron. From there you look
all I'VE the city nesting below you
among what seems to be a wooded
landscape.
The inside of the house was only
furnished as far as a few essentials
| are concerned. But they are very
beautiful. artistic and unobstrusive.
Dick said he had asked Miss Perier
TO oversee the work of some decora-
tor who might furnish the house IN
all its entirety, but she said that
would be very foolish OF him.
Being a woman she knew that
me Of the thrills Of a brides life
would be furnishing her own home.
so here you have it, my dear -
ne said, land here is a check for
the doodads you may want to put
into it,
l found Paula Perier charming,
Sally-very vivacious and a little
temperamental, but that is what one
must expect 10 find in one as beau.
tiful and as successfully artistic as
she. There is quite "a mystery about
her. I think. l told his to Dick and
he laughed at me. but l have no
ticed her when she has thought no
enc was observing her. Her spar.
king eyes always grow and her
mouth droops al the corners. She
always then makes me think Of the
Mater D~olorosa.
I am sure hat this drew me &c
her more than all the rest. I want
ed to comfort her. l wanted TO be
her friend. Perhaps that's the
secret of her popularity. for even or
he screen you get flashes Of some
thing which gives you the feeling
that you are looking into a hidden
place within an almost breaking
heart.
