George Burns and Gracie Allen are cited as exemplars of the Home Sweet Home trend, leaving vaudeville behind after early fame via wireless and California living. Notables like Jack Benny, Mary Livingstone, Ethel Cantor, and Katharine Cornell join peers such as Lanny Ross, Guy Lombardo, Fred Allen, Rudy Vallee, Al Jolson, and Leslie Howard in adopting permanent residences, while others continue touring or relocating to calmer climes. A Stork Club gathering spurred a temporary temperance pledge, but sobriety waned as the event progressed.
