Many movieland hostesses
have tried. without lasting or

aura Of splendor that surrounded
the parties that Mary Pickford

their hilltop home. A screen

important than a bid to Pickfair.

MEMORIES
Those Parties at Pickfuir
Were Decorous Affuirs

Mary and Doug had a special
Ipenchant for royalty. There was
one soiree, in honor of the
duchess of something. whose for
mality hit new high for film-
land. Everyone who amounted
to anything was there. There
was a receiving line. a polite
punch. delicate hors d'oeuvres
and soft music. It was a little
like a movie in a setting of over
done French drawing room with
the gilt. the brocades, the hand
painted piano. But unlike a
movie. nothing dramatic hap
pened.
One thing to be said for Pick
fair parties. they never became
brawls, Mary's innate good taste
prevented that.
But Pickfair wasn't the only
place for parties.
I think of one at Lew Cody's.
