We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Relieve It Herself?
'AN a girl be herself with the world looking on? How can a screen star be sure she isn't kidding herself as well as her audience? When, in other words, to get right down to cases, does Gloria Swanson stop doing her stuff and begin being Gloria?
The answers to these questions will not be found here. The Swanson Clubs of the country might hold a national convention and decide it once and for all, except that it's really immaterial to them as long as Gloria wears a new coiffure in every picture.
So far, Miss Swanson has risen to the occasion. And in Zaza she does it again. According to the records, Zaza was French, and as far as we know, never wintered in the Fijis. With superb disregard, Gloria, or Gloria's hairdresser, has given Zaza, for some of her big scenes, a wondrous wig with a sparkling spangle suspended from each curl. Nazimova wore something like it in "Salome." It's an Aubrey Beardsley nightmare. Gloria glittered — diamond "Z's" around her neck, "Z's" in spangles on her arms, "Z" patches on chin and cheeks. There were no two ways about it — she was playing Zaza.
