Hollywood
Hollywood U.R) Perle
Mesta, "the hostess- with- the
mostest," has finished her first
whirl of Holly
wood parties
with the con
clusion: Less
food, less for
eigners and
less hats than
at Washington
parties.
Miss Mesta,
the former
Aline Hocby a m b a s s a-
dress to Luxembourgh who was
immortalized in "Call Me Ma
dam," stopped here for a week
on her first visit to the movie
colony.
Since the wealthy widow also
is a famed Washington hostess
and may surpass Elsa Maxwell
for tossing parties, I cornered
her before she took off for Wash
ington to find out what she
thought of the Hollywood var
iety. Miss Mesta smiled. "Oh, par
ties are alike the world over."
But on second thought she came
up with a few differences.
Foreigners Appear
"You see many more foreign
ers at Washington parties," she
said. "And much more food. Oh,
those foreigners love to eat! I've
seen parties in Europe where
the buffet table was loaded with
food and there was a special
table for sweets."
At one Hollywood party I no
ticed Miss Mesta was one of the
few women wearing hats.
"Yes, they dress differently
here than we do in the East,"
continued the motherly-looking
hostess. "Clothes are lighter in
color here, more informal. Not
many hats. They dress here like
Americans in Hong Kong."
Miss Mesta attended "at least
two or three parties" a day dur
ing her week in Hollywood.
When I saw her in her hotel lob
by she was enroute to party No.
22 and holding up rather well.
Nightclub Visited
She also visited the Mocambo
nightclub and got in on the closed
set of "Teahouse of the August
Moon," something the press can't
do to meet Mario Brando.
"The movie people are love
ly and very interesting," she
said. "I love people who do
things. And they have lovely
homes.
"However," she added, "I
don't care for modern. My Wash
ington home is in 15th Century
French."
Miss Mesta has a recipe for
successful hostesses, in Holly
wood and elsewhere. Her ingred
ients: "First a guest list, inter
esting people. Then the warmth
of the hostess. The food. Al
ways have music. And see that
everyone there always is taken
care of and has a good time. De
cor is important, too.

Hand-Made Paintings
Of Originals on Sale
New York (U.R The latest
."collector's items" coming from
France are mass-produced water
colors. Though hand - painted,
they cost less than a tenth of the
originals.
This novelty has been intro
duced here By Franie H. Morini,
a Frenchman who settled in the
United States a few years ago.
The procedure which makes it
possible to sell a high quality
hand-made product at the price
of a print is secret and world
copyrighted of course.
While prints and engravings
can be reproduced in limited
numbers only, there is no such
limitation for hand-made water
colors. The paintings Morini sells are
based on originals by the French
artist Herbelot. They consist of
36 views of France, Paris and
Italy. The hand-made copies are
framed in New York and sold in
retail stores at prices from $10.50
to S17.50, depending upon the
frame and the shop.
Morini started this new busi
ness last fall and estimates that
: he will sell in the United States
and Canada some 30,000 paint
ings during the first business
year.
"Americans want to own
hand-made paintings," he said.
"All I do is to sell them these at
the price of prints."
