Novel Honeymoons A micl Strange Scenes
Marriage of Betty Zane Grey and Trip to Tropical Waters
Recalls the Desert Honeymoon of Colonel and Mrs.
Lindbergh and the No Less Romantic South Sea
Romance of Lord and Lady Hastings.

New York—All the world loves a
lover, and next to a lover it loves a
honeymooner. In fact, appearances
to ihe contrary, this old»sphere upon
which-we live is incurably romantic.
For that reason it will be thrilled by
news of the novel honeymoon em
barked upon by Betty Zanc Grey,
daughter oT the celebrated novelist,
and her brand new hubby, Robert
W. Carney.
The couple were married at the
home of the bride’s parents at Al
tadena, Calif., and decided to spend
their honeymoon fishing in tropical
waters. But the happy pair are not!
following precedent by seeking se
clusion. Not indeed. They will be;
accompanied by a chemist, a half!
dozen scientists, a father-in-law and
a crew of 37 men. The honeymoon1
will, in fact, be a scientific fishing
trip.
A little over a year ago the heart !
of our cynical old world went pit-a- j
pat as it watched the progress of
tiie honeymoon of the most roman
tic figure of our generation, Col.'
Charles. Lindbergh. Ltndy, -as was*
fitting, took his bride on an aerial!
tour And what a tour Starting1
from Miami, Fla., the couple flew *!
7.000-mile course around the Carri-i
bean Sea and South America and'
back to their starting point.
Later in the year they flow mtoj
the heart of the Arizona desert and !
explored the Canvon Del ifucrto foi l
traces of an ancient American civ
ilization. What's more, they found
what they went after. They brought
back many photographs of ancient
Indian ruins and several specimens
of pottery which had been fashioned
by a vanished tace.
Can you imagine our grandfath
ers' sage remarks on hearing the
modern honeymoon method—“Hon
eymoons ain't what they used to
be?" or to stretch your imagination
a little farther; can you picture
grandmother with her wasp-walsted
wedding gown, complete with bus
tle and ail the upholstery that went
with a bride's get-up in the not-so
gay nineties, on her way to hunt
lions and tigers in the miasmie
Jungles of wildest Africa? That was
the exciting type of honeymoon
chosen by Mrs. Marshall Field.
Mr. Field was married in Lon
don, Eng., last August and being one
of the world's wealthiest men was in
b position to gratify any whim or
desire of his bride, the former Mrs. I
Dudley Coats, a close friend of the I
Prince of Wales; so When the new!
Mrs- Field decided that she wanted1
to hunt lions and elephants and’
thing* on their honeymoon, the;
bridegroom fell to with the idea and i
the newlyweds climbed aboard an!
airplane and headed for darkest Af-)
ricu. |
Well the honeymoon hunt turned'
•'it to be leu inoi< thrilling toon]
either of the honeymoouers intend
ed it should be. On one of their
flights over the big game country
Uielr plane crashed but fortunately
no one was injured.
The scene changes to a tiny South
Sea Island, so small, that it is
scarcely visible on a map. It is far
from ship lanes and farther still
from the gay night life of London
and New York. The mellow moon
shines through the leafy bowers
o'vershadowtng two figures dancing
to the erie music of native musi
cians. They are Lord and Lady
Hastings enjoying that strange
honeymoon tipon which they set
forth far from fashionable May
fair.
Use your imagination again and
speculate as to what grandpa would
say when lie heard the news: “I
knew no good would come of those
new-fangled ideas.”
But whatever grandpa says the
world will still go on loving lovers
and breathlessly following the ad
ventures of modern honeymoopers,
whether they fly ip planes or de
cide to go for a submarine trip
Now there s a swell idea for » pro.
gressive bridal couple. It hunt b»r,
done yet and fame wait* for the
pioneer who has the originality to
dash from the altar uboard his
trusty sub and spend his honeymoon
down in The territory ruled Over bv
navy Jones. j
