& Little Mary Fauntleroy and D‘Artagnan Fairbanks. There
is no truth to the widely circulated rumor that an heir
is expected in the Fairbanks home. Mary is quoted as saying,
„If such a wonderful thing were true, there would
be no reason to deny it. But if such an event were imminent,
I should certainly not be working in pictures.“

„Charlie Chaplin is always in it“
Editorial content. „Mr. and Mrs. D. Fairbanks,
Of California, Are in Town
Remain From 10 A. M. to 3 P. M. in Grip of Press
Reporters and Photographers; Then the
Bride Washes Her Curls; Disagree Only in Politics
Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Fairbanks arrived
in New York at 10 o‘clock yesterday morning, had a party of
newspaper writers to luncheon, took an automobile
ride, met fifteen or twenty magazine editors at 3 o‘clock and
at 4 Mrs. Fairbanks washed her curls.
All his hustling was necessary for they are to be here
only a couple of weeks, and there is a lot to be done.
Wallpaper to pick out, for example, and cretonne hangings

bungalow at Los Angeles. There aren‘t any closets in the
Fairbanks establishment as at present constructed,
and ,Our Mary‘ has a large wardrobe.
,Tell us all about your wedding,‘ the twenty newswriters
demanded first, in a rose and white suite at the Ritz-Carlton.
,Our wedding?‘ said ,Doug‘ pleasantly. ,Oh, there‘s
nothing to tell about that. How do you like those pink curtains,
Mary? Pretty room, isn‘t it, so cool and restful looking?‘
,That is the way I want our house to be, Douglas,‘ said
,Our Mary,‘ eagerly. ,I hate these elaborate mansions,
where you have to be so formal that you can‘t have a good time.
Just simple, homey rooms, where our friends can be
happy. That‘s my idea.‘
Chaplin a Persistent Guest
,We have to have lots of rooms,‘ added ,Doug,‘ ,because
everybody we know camps out with us whenever they
feel like it. When I built the bungalow, I picked out the best
bedroom for myself – after years of hotel and parlor
car living you get to have ideas about bedrooms. Well, do you
suppose I ever slept in it? No, indeed. Charlie Chaplin
is always in it. Comes up and stays weeks at a time, he does,
and I have to use the guest room.‘“ (...)
