FLORENCE HORNER

From the luxurious quietude of a Hawaiian sugar plantation to the nerve quivering shimmy of a micro- phone in ten days is the record of Florence Horner. Mra. Horner is the wife of a wealthy planter. She came a-visiting to ye colony. She had met William Boyd in Honolulu and Pathe Bill suggested she look. him up when she hit the mainland. So she did.

And found him making a flick. In "The Racketeer," Director Howard Higgins spotted the visitor from Hawait and asked how she'd like to traipse in a big Monte Carlo scene. She liked. And did. Until she: found herself under the dangly "mike," speaking thus and so to Hedda Hopper for screen publica- tlon. Whereupon it was each nerve for itself and Mrs. Horner plenty scared.

EVELYN BRENT

China, South Africa, South Amor ica, Mexico and the U.S.A. He has seen service in the German army, in the Boer War and with Uncle Sam's troops during the Spanish- American bullet festival. For the nast twelve years. However, Von Hardenberg has lived in Los Angeles. He started to write short- ly after the recent war, but discover- ed his German moniker discouraged editors. So he changed it for editorial purposes.

He sought pleture work about the time Ernst Lubitsch came to Holly- wood Lubitsch gave him a job, and, has since used him in each of his offerings, including the present operetta. Van Hardenberg doesn't traipse in many films. He spends his time mostly writing.
