Unhappy Ending The Story Of Mary And DOUG
Pickfair At The Pnnace- Then The Stars Diuerge
BY ROBIN COONS
tiSy SA0ctated Press

HOLLYWOOD, July 19.-Not
only in Hollywood but far beyond
its borders. was the married life
of Mary Pickford and Douglas
Fairbanks called an "ideal union"
1t was looked upon as a 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 we'll as in their own.
Pickfair A 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
ephemeral, make believe world of
the cinema. Its lord and lady were
real. Woodworking, gracious per-
sonalities.
Never did rumors of Hollywood
wild parties" tie themselves to
dignified Pickfair. Here. it seem
ed, was an American home. built
on work and hard-won success,
like many other homes. II stood
apparently untroubled by the top
ping of other movie marriages
and their occasional accompani-
ment of scandal.
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
danced, they danced with each
other. No other man than Doug
las ever was seen dancing with
Mary until two or three years
ago. after the perfect romance"
had begun to show its first signs
of imperfection.
When Pickfair entertained. it
was quietly and exclusively. There
was nothing ''typfcallys Hollywood
about these functions. There
was conversation rather than bois-
terousness and discussion rather
than flowing gin bowls.
Pioneers 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.

ECONOMIC LEAGUE
ADOPTS PLAN FOR
AIDING TAXPAYER
COMPILING DATA WHICH
WILL BE GIVEN TO voTING
PUBLIC BEARING ON PRO-
POSED NEW CITY CHARTER

Data relative to the saving to
taxpayers of Key West in the
event the new city charter is
adopted, at the city election in
November, is now being compiled
and as soon as completed will be
given to the public.
This was decided at a meeting
of the Economic League held last
night and committe was appoint
ed to secure the necessary informa-
ton.
Several members of the organi-
cation stated they had been ap-
preached by non-members of the
league and asked the question
How will the new city charter
effect a saving of approximately
$4,000 annually, as is being stat
ed by members of the league"
To explain the channels through
which the saving will be made
cannot be effectively done. it was
shown, by a verbal explanation,
with no figures to show that the
problem has been satisfactorily
worked out.
But if a member is approached
on the subject and has an assem-
blage of facts and figures in con-
crete form to show his questioner
and explain the method by which
the saving can be effected, it is
believed that many voters who
have the interest of the city at
heart will be convinced Of the
value of the new charter, it was
said, and vote for it in November.
