Hidden Wedding Rings

Film Brides Have Been Putting Mufflers on Their Wedding Bells

Louise Fazenda, winner of the prize for the long time secret marriage.
Until recently, the best film circles considered it highly disastrous to combine a Career and Cupid—publicly. One's public must be considered, you know.
That is, this has been the case right up to the present moment. To be sure, it is fashionable to be married by ring and book, if you can have the ceremony performed up at "Pickfair," for instance as Marjory Daw and Eddie Sutherland. And since Rodolph Valentino owned up to his marriages without any loss in popularity, others are beguiling to 'fess up about their nuptial adventurings. So little by little, coyly and with bashful blushes the brides and grooms are brushing the cobwebs off their wedding rings.
But in the old days, you would have thought there was something disgraceful in being married, the way these picture gels denied their marriages.
Louise Could Keep a Secret!
Probably the prize long-term secret marriage of the bunch is that of Louise Fazenda. And yet they say a woman can't keep a secret!
Louise Fazenda became a blushing bride some six years ago, when she ran off to Santa Ana and became the wife of Noel Smith, a comedy director.
