LETTER FROM BEATRICE SUM
MERS TO SALLY ATHERTON
My Dear Sally: From the letters
you have written me lately have
decided that we of the moving pic
ture colony, whom every one seems
to think are different from every one
else, are just human beings after all.
We eat and sleep and love and hate
and live and die out here in Holly
wood just as they do in Pittsburgh
or Kalamazoo, New York or Cairo.
Poor Leslie, am sorry for her. /
never could understand Jacks great
appeal to her, but heard yesterday
that one of the moving picture
queens had said that she could not
understand my appeal to Dick So
I guess these kind of conundrums
will have to be left unsolved.
have made the acquaintance,
since I have been here, of a very
charming woman. She is a woman
about the age of Leslies mother.
She is playing grande DANES in one
OF the companies on the lot. Dick
makes fun of me because he says
that have picked out the Oldest
and staidest woman in Hollywood
to be my friend. But / can't help
1t. / have missed my mother so
much although 1 was quite young
when she died.
She, has been a very wealthy wo-
man, a child Of an old and very aris-
tocratic family, who married a
young salesman in her fathers en-
ploy.
He died some years ago and left
her penniless, SO the story goes.
She has q very dignitied and
charming presence and you have
seen her often on the screen. You
will recognize her name when I give
1t. 1t is Marta Selgyn.
/ / fell in love with her on the
screen and went over to the lot on
purpose to ask her over to my
house.
Since then have studied her care
fully. There Is something in her
face that ! would like to read.
know. from looking into her clear,
yet somewhat world-weary eyes,
eyes that show enough interest and
enthusiasm to stiIl question that
some of her experiences must have
been soIl-scorching.
But for all that her mouth does
not reveal any hardness and her
complexion has much Of the fresh
ness of youth, I knew she had a
story.
How Dick laughed at me when I
told him of my theory that ugly,
selfish, suspicious thoughts and ac-
ton worked havoc with ones com
plexion.
You can hardly tell what a man
or woman viii be before 40 but I
believe, Dick, that I can tell what a
man or woman has been by looking
into his or her face after 40.
Now know" I went on fun of
my theory. "ehat poor Mrs. selwyn
has face made beautiful by sad
experience"
|, Dick told me was too fanciful.
but as though to make my theory
come true the next afternoon. Mrs.
Selwyn told me this story. am
writing this to you because have
made a scenario out of it and Dick
is going to put it on for me.
