“Glamour is Just Being Healthy ”

44 Glamour? Oh, that is just being healthyl ” Go exclaimed Danielle Darrieux, European film idol, thereby “putting tho finger” on one of Hollywood’s most highly discussed subjects.

Working in “The Rage of Paris” her American screen debut at Universal studios, tho star paused long enough to voice the opinion that any woman could . ave “all the glamour sho wants” if she would go to a little effort. “Tho rules? They’re simple! Just walk ten blocks every day, and take a swim at least once a week. Eat sen-

sibly and get plenty of sleep,” advised tho actress whoso figure is recognised as ono of the most perfect in all Europe.

“Women dislike set rules,” Miss Darrieux said as Vera West, studio fashion designer, displayed a gown which the star will don when her picture stars. “We’re scared to death of gymnasiums and haven’t much time for exercise anyway. So, the simpler tho better.” Miss Darrieux, who has appeared in twenty-five French films in tho past few years, feels that she has put her

“rules” to the test in her owu career. A picture of glowing health, sho insists that simple living is tho key to beauty and physical well being: Walking, swimming, diet and sleep comprise her formula.

Irene Dunne gave five-year-old Dorothy a life-sized dolL Little Estcllo roceived one exactly like it from Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. And now Dorothy has named her doll “Estelle.” And Estelle has named hor’s Dorothy.”
