Caudete Colbert calls
IoUeliet according Of film colony.

thing but compliments for her-the only bit Of
critical gossip ever shot in her direction being
due to the fact that she and her husband, Nor
man Foster, maintain separate homes.
Although married for six years, Claudette
still lives with her mother, the two maintaining
beautiful hilltop mansion in Hollywood.
Foster lives some distance away In his own
bachelor quarters. 1t is a plan they have fol-
lowed ever since their marriage, when both
were appearing on the legitimate stage in New
York And although it has led to numerous
reports of separation, it apparently has worked
most satisfactorily for them.
Claudette's advancement in the film world
has been steady, although not rapid, until today
she ranks as one of the foremost feminine stars,
her most recent productions being 1T Hap
pened One Night" and Cleopatra" Since she
is consistently good actress rather than of
the hashy type, there is every reason to expect
that she will remain in the front rank for some
years to come.
And she is the last person in the world who
ever would rate herself as beauty. In fact,
she nearly always refers to her face "this
funny pam" Consequently she is due for
rather startling surprise when she reads the
results of this poll for Hollywood's queen of
beauty, which is published here for the first
time.
h lEXT in line for movieland's beauty honors
Y is Loretta Young, as different from Claud-
ette as an orchid from rose Taller and con-
siderably more slender than Claudette, Loretta
gives one an instant impression of great deli
cacy, almost as though she would break like a
china doll unless handled with the utmost
care. And her tresses, while far from the
platinum shade that Jean Harlow has made so
popular, are as naturally blond as Claudettes
are brown.
Although now only 81 years of age, Loretta
Is veteran Of the screen. Starting when only
IA years old, her appearance of advanced ma
turity enabled her to play leading roles year
later. And she has been playing them ever
since, each succeeding year bringing higher
and more expert quality to her acting.
Loretta Is unfortunate in respect, how
ever. In another 10 years people viii be refer
ring to her as an old lady. Due to her early

has been married and divorced fshe married
Grant Withers when she was I'D, nobody viii
believe her to be her true age. 'She' must be
older than that. Why, can remember seeing
her in pictures is years, ago, and she was
grown up then," they will say. And they win
be right except in one respect, and that Is that
she only looked grown up.
Running a close race for third place among
the beauties is Marlene Dietrich, German
actress, who was discovered and brought to this
country about three years ago by Josef Won
Sternberg. Since then she has been the di-
rectors protege and as such has risen to posi-
tion as one of the most important figures on the
screen.
Much of Marlene's beauty Is Photographic
and almost statuelike.
When properly photographed she presents
figure which would defy any artists brush. In
fact the camera beauty of this blond actress
has been to a large extent responsible for her
success on the screen. No matter what she
does, there are thousands who are perfectly
satisfied as long as they can gaze upon her awe
inspiring beauty.
Most of Hollywood, however, is of the opinion
that her off-screen beauty is far from as strik-
ing. But all admit that her perfect photo
graphic features, plus her throaty delivery of
songs make her a woman to be envied.
| Asst year la Dietrich made herself the most
=. talked-about woman in Hollywood by her
insistence upon appearing everywhere in mascu-
line attire During the day she went every
where clad in mems suits tailored especially for
her. And at formal evening functions she
would wear a regulation tuxedo.
Her excuse was that this afforded greater
comfort, a reason which might have been ac-
cepted had it not been for the tuxedos. Men
particularly were too well aware of the fact
that no feminine evening gown could possibly
be as uncomfortable as masculine evening
clothes.
In the fourth place, and only one vote behind
Miss Dietrich. is jeanette Macdonald, hazel
eyed and auburn-tressed, and possessed of q
figure that Venus de Milo herself would envy.

Strangely enough Miss Del Rio often mem
toned among the most beautiful women of the
world, does not seem to measure up to the
movie coiony's idea of perfect beauty. Neither
does Joan Crawford, who often has been ex-
plotted for her perfect figure-those being the
factors apparently considered most necessary to
the ideal woman.
A ND now what of Miss Colbert, the most
popular conception of Hollywood's idea in
womanhood? To begin with, she has strong
and agreeable personality which decidedly
accentuates her physical beauty Her facial
features contain just enough flaws to give her
face striking and beautifully human rather
than marblelike appearance. And her figure
is one Of which any girl could boast the specific
measurements being as follows:

Some bunders have been made since the Robles

and the one which undoubtedly enabled the kdnapel

that the papers have refrained from publishing

Mothers Day

The second Sunday in May is generally observed
as Mothers Day 1t is generally recognized as an oc-

men and women everywhere hold for their mothers.
The people of Santa Cruz County will, as usual,
take advantage Of this day remember those mothers
who have departed and give to those living some
tangible evidence Of fia appreciation While mothers
are supposed to take many things for granted they
should not be expected to assume always that then
children are conscious Of debt that they owe.
