show it's first signs of imperfec- ton.
 When Pickfair entertained, il was quietly and exclusively There was nothing "typically Hollywood about these functions. There was conversation rather than bolster ousness and discussion rather than flowing gin bowls.
 Picneers in Beverly Hills
 By many in Hollywood and else where a. bid to dinner at Pickfair was regarded as an, admission tick ct to the inner circles of movie society
 The first film people to settle in Beverly Hills. the Fairbankses started the movie colonization of ,tbat. city. Living att Pickfair, they were often called the First Fam ily of Hollywood" 7 As such they entertained distin- guiShed visitors to the film col ony. Their numerous tours abroad, Curing which they were feted and dired, made it only a logical se- uuence that they should return the 'eouptesy when titled men and wom- eIH Tor famous folk without titles, visited Hollywood. Thus arose what some in Hollywood came to call ',,Pickfair's royalty complex" ;. Wandcrlust Vs. Career?
 There are those who attribute Mary's and Doug's enlargement to such a complex. Perhaps so many world travellers came and went that Douglas, always interested in trav- el,. got the wanderlust incurably. Mary preferred to remain in Hol- lywood, fighting to retain her cinema laurels.
 While Mary made pictures that would bring her comeback, she changed her screen type and ex- perimented with new characters, Doug was letting his career become incidental to his travels and avid interest in sports.
 Here, it seemed, was the break ing of one of their strongest ties a, mutual interest in their film work.

HOLLYWOOD, July 19.-Not only in Hollywood but far beyond it's borders was the married life of Mary Pickford and Douglas Fair banks called an ideal union."
 It was looked upon as mar riage of professional interests as well as of hearts A union of top rank stars whose positions in the starry heavens were fixed firmly. Both had wealth, fame, friends in abundance. Both were interested in pictures-in each others as well as in their own.
 Pickfair Symbol Many people who did not care for films or film people have come to Hollywood for visits to Doug and Mary at their hospitable Pick fair.
 This mansion represented some thing solid and substantial in the ephemerel, make-believe world of the cinema. Its lord and lady were real, hard-working, gracious personalities.
 Never did rumors of Hollywood wild parties" tie themselves to dig nified Pickfair Here, it seemed. was an American home, built on work and hard-won success, like many other homes. It stood, ap- parently untroubled by the topping of other movie marriages and their occasional accompaniment of sean dal.
 Their Social Life Quiet
 Doug and Mary never went to Hollywood parties, except to small gatherings at the homes of a few intimate friends When they danc- ed, they danced with each other No other man than Douglas ever was seen dancing with Mary until two or three years ago, after the perfect romance" had begun to

Bring your love problems to Jane JOr-
dan. who will help you understand your
situation and suggest something for you
to do about it.
Dear Jane Jordan-I'm in love
with a girl, but she has Tilted me
for another fellow. She claims
she wants to Keep me for a friend,
but 1 can't stand this other fellow
hanging around She says I'm
too jealous for her taste.
Besides, this other fellow is just
as jealous of me as I am of him.
Whenever I want a date with this
girl, he plans something she'd
rather do, just to take her away
from me. Then when I raise hell,
she just calls me jealous. What
can do to get her away from
him? JEALOUS.
Dear Jealous-You are jealous.
The other sutton is jealous. That's
why she prefers him to you. You sit
around and moan when she won't
make date with you. He gets out
and scare5 up something interest
ing. He represents action; you rep
resent inaction.
He has a goal and plans definite
ways to achieve it. You have a goal
and do nothing about it. When he
is jealous, he acts. When you are
jealous, you complain. He studies
the beloved and does things to please
her You reproach her and seek
to blame her for the fact that you
are losing ground.
The thing for you to do is to stop
feeling sorry for yourself and learn
to translate your desires into action
Turn from a negative technique tC
positive one.
Dear Jane Jordan-I am a young
girl of 16 and have been going
with a young man for about eight
months. He tells me that he loves
me, but he has been untrue to me.
have been sick and he has gone
to parties and had a good time
while 1 couldn't help myself.
Yesterday was allowed to take
short walk with him to get the
sunshine. He seemed so happy to
see me out once more. His folks
say he loves me, but I am uncer-
tain. How can I find out if he
really loves me?

making the mistake that great
many people make by being toe
possessive with your boy friend. Ii
is a lot more fun at your age tc
have more than one beau to your
string. And it's more of a COM
pliment to you if he has several girl
friends, and still prefers you to the
others.
If he went to parties while you
we're not available, I see no reason
for you to object. You couldn't be
so selfish as to wish him to refrain
from going to parties just because
you couldn't!
I know of no yardstick to lay to
love to measure its strength. But if
there is one, possibly it's time.
II
Dear Jane Jordan-We are two
young men of 81 and % and we
are constant readers of your
column. The two letters from Gin
Ellyne and your replies prompt
ed this one. 1t is our opinion
that neither you nor Gin Ellyne is
half as smart as you think you
are. I don't think Gin Ellyne
was stringing the boys half as
much as she thought she was. 1
think the boy friend Bill will let
Gin Ellyne down so hard it will
lar her ancestors. Yours for a
bigger column and better advice.
FRANKIE AND JOHNNY.
Dear Frankie and Johnny-You
two boys had the advantage of see
ing Gin Ellyne from the inside. If
you hadn't read her confession, are
you sure you wouldn't have fallen
for her charm? l am delighted to
hear from you both. Why don't you
write more fully and tell what it is
about Gin Ellyne you do not like.
And while you're at it, tell what
kind of girl you do like. I will pub
fish your reply for Gin Ellyne's
benefit Maybe you can help her.
zS n
Dear Jane Jordon-You call Gin
Ellyne vain. Do you think she is
any vainer than the boys she goes
with? QUESTIONER.
Dear Questioner-I doubt if wom-
en- as class are any more vain than
men. But their vanity gets more
publicity.
