Show BEVERLY HILLS Well all I know is just what I read in the papers, pa-pers, or what happens day after nisi ew 1 day. Finished my movies and wanted want-ed to just stay around home and have a little fun without soma director di-rector hollering at me, "Come on! Get on. the set here and quit loafing!" I been just messing around doing this and that and not much of either. Get on old "Soap Suds" and ride off up a little canyon I got here with running water in, it. Dont mean a thing to you all in mos of the place where you might unfor tunately read this, but to us folk! out here in California, or in any o: these arid states I tell you running water is just about the last word. Couple of Sundays ago we had a nice little gathering out of what we humorously call Racch . Betty, (thats the little woman) she invited some of our old friends out. Mrs. A'melia Earhardt and her husband Mr Putnam, and a darn nice fellow, and a mighty congenial pair by the way. Well he is awful nice and this Amelia, she would be great in any business, or in no business at all. She captivates the women too, which is unusual. She told me a lot about her trip to Mexico. She is crazy about Mexico. Well everybody is that goes there, and she thinks this President is very sincere and wants to get all this religious trouble settled and get everybody feeling fine. She has sure got the nerve that gal. She dident make her flight from there to N. Y. around the edge of the Gulf of Mexico, she just lit out and set a compass course and left the land at Tampico Mexico and dident hit land any more till she got away along about New Orleans. The thing I like about her Is that she always has a fine word to say about all the other aviators. Not a one you mention men-tion but that has some particular quality or ability that she will boost as being superior to others. Jealousy is not eating her heart out in regard to her fellow flyers, either male or female. Another old friend, Will Durant, our great philosopher, he is out here' .uuici uiu inena, will Durant, our great philosopher, he is out here teaching philosophy in the University Univer-sity of Cal at Los Angeles. He is a great fellow. Bill, our oldest, has just finished up at Stanford this June. This philosophy -was the racket he had majored in, and he sit around open mouthed and drank in every that Will Durant said. Durant had written and sent us the book, a new one, "The Story of Civilization Our Oriental Heritage." Its just a little what you might call "Throw-Away" or pamphlet. Its only got 1178 pages in it. Mrs. Rogers been working on it. I will get after it some afternoon when I havent got any calves to rope. Thats an awful lot of civilization civiliza-tion for the amount we have had. You would like Bill Durant regular regu-lar guy. Charming wife and daughter. daugh-ter. Pauline Frederick is out here again and going to go in the movies, she has been on the stage for the last few years, and a big success. She is a neighbor and old friend of Beverly Hills days. Pauline can ride a horse and really loves it, Fred Stone and his middle daughter daugh-ter pama was out And gay here Js some news you will all be tickled to near. He is simply great in his first Picture. He is playing with the charming person Miss Hepburn, and the picture is immense and of course she is marvelous as usual, but so Is Fred.
