NO LETTERHEAD - Beverly Hills, CA - HANDWRITTEN

Glad to hear our pictures are still in good standing over there. If you get a chance to see our picture “Their First Mistake,” do so.

Dear Alf [Goulding]-
    Again many thanks for your cheery letter & kind wishes, also for the Diary - certainly appreciate your thoughtfulness. Will & Rosa were over here the other night - we thought of you all & drank to your health & success etc. for '31. Glad to hear our pictures are still in good standing over there - I was expecting to take a trip home again this summer, but won't have time - we have a month vacation in April so may go to Honolulu instead - we haven't been there, so should be very interesting. If you get a chance to see our picture "THEIR FIRST MISTAKE" do so. Well all here is as usual - the family join in lots of good wishes & kidn thoughts to Flo & self. Trust alls well & happy.
                Yours as ever,
Stan Signature
