Modern Screen Directory of Players (Continued from page 86) ELECTED The Girl With GLORIOUS HAIR! She's always a sure winner — the choice at all ■'parties" — the girl with soft, lustrous, beautifully-waved hair! Admiration, popularity, the devotion of men — are hers by acclamation. Glorious Hair! What is its secret — how is it attained? Thousands upon thousands of girls, everywhere, joyfully answer: "Sta-Bac Curl Stf." With this famous preparation, you, too, can quickly give yourself a smart, "beauty shoppe" wave set, right in your own boudoir. Sta-Bac Curl Set is different. It is thicker (double strength), hence easier to apply. It dries more quickly. It is scientifically created to hold the waves longer. And it positively leaves none of those objectionable white flakes. American girls and women are so enthusiastic about its beautifying results that they bought over 6 million bottles of Sta-Bac in the past 12 months alone! Why don't you try a bottle — this week? — at S. S. Kresse Stores VI-JON LABORATORIES, ST. LOUIS SiaBac CURL SET CABOT, BRUCE ; unmarried; born in New Mexico, April 20. Radio player.
