"He was preoccupied,” Mrs. Bryant said. “He was hurrying along and appeared worried. 1 was about to speak to him when the traffic light changed and I had no opportunity.” Both Haupt and Mrs. Bryant have known the missing man fdr nearly 20 years and were positive they could not have been mistaken in their Identification.

Hollywood.—lt is an ironical fact '< that to all but a select few the real qualities of a man remain hidden i until he has gone down the “bourn I whence no traveler returns,” beyond the plaudits of a world that cherisshed a gem unknowingly. Today the one topic of conversa 1 tion in this city, where romance is manufactured by the yard on celln- . 1 lold strips, Is the tragic death of,' j Paul Bern, husband of the glamor-1 cus, platinumh tired Jean Harlow. Even here, where life and death < are but secondary to the great god ambition. Bern's death is mourned 1 1 not only as a loss to the industry 1 for the good of which he ftad tofed, bilt also as the loss of one who 1 had been a friend to all who had ever sought his aid. Paul Bern was known as the i 1 "Little Confessor” of Hollywood. ' He had earned the title by his so-J licitousness for those less fortun ate than himself and for his under standing of the human problems ' confided to him by the great and ' near great who had run Into troub-! : le. He was. in fact, a big brother to his feTow-workets In the film 1 industry, especially to those hnn-,' dreds of boys and girls who come to Hollywood to chase the Will-o'-the-Wisp of fame, to find on'y dis ] iilusionment. It is a certainty that Bern saved ] many a discouraged aspirant to film glory from the fate against 1 which he was powerless to protect himself. It Is a matte? of history ' . - ...i. .i-H —

'on the movie lots that Bern helped I to place many feet on the ladder of j success. Some of those feet are i now resting on the topmost rung <rf the ladder of fame. Unlike many who have arisen to i power and influence. Bern never ' forgot his own struggle for recognition and was always eager to render assistance to anyone engaged’ iin a similar struggle. Born in Germany, 42 years ago, ■one of eighteen children, Bern was ; brought to New York when he was I nine. After he had attended the ! city's public schools, he worked his I way through business college and later won a scholarship in dramatic institute. . From 1911 to 1914 he was actor, stage manager and director of proi ductions in stock companies that I toured the country. Then he got f his first chance iti motion pictures with a Canadian company. Bern made the grade and soon after drift|ed to Hollywood, where he soon ' made good as a director, being later graduated to the position of production supervisor, the post he held until his death. It is an excellent testimonial to Bern’s character and qualities that, i in a city where jealousy is the prej dominant human emotion, he was [begrudged his success by none. [Factions there are in Hollywood, I this circle vieing with that in matI ters pertaining eitjier to business or social prominence. But Patil ! Bern was welcomed everywhere 'He was a man who had been en- ! dowed with an abundant supply of the milk of human kindness and he expended it lavishly on his fe'lowman. It is a fact t'.iat when the fairweather friends of Barbara La Marr and Mabel Normand had gone the way that such ftiendss usually go at the first sign of slipping. Bern stood by them. He was at the bedsides of both when they died. It Is also true that when Joan Crawford, i now a famous star, was a nOw-com-[er to Holiwsod and suffering the : discouragement that often leads to defeat and disaster, Bern’s counsel and encouragement helped her. to ■stick and earn a subsequent tri[umph. Thus it Is no wonder that Hollywood is appa'led at the tragedy that robbed it of a belowed charlacter. The show must go on. of course. The great public must have [its drama, romance And comedy. |So the camera? whirr, the klieg i lights blare and the actors with I painted faces strut in their world [of make believe, but there is something missing—rfol’ywood has lost ! a friend. i BARGAINS — Bargain* tn Living Ro6m, Dining Room Suita.
