HER press agent came in first. In fact, I didn't know she was in the building — Irene Boyle, I mean. It was while we were talking about her in the Edgar Lewis production, "Other Men's Shoes," which marks her return to the cinema fold, that he nonchalantly remarked that she was downstairs talking to the advertising director. Of course, he mentioned it casually — press agents never have ulterior motives — and I immediately said I'd like to meet her. I knew every one would be interested in her, remembering her work in the old Kalem days.
Well, she came. I was glad of Mr. Press Agent's motive, ulterior or otherwise.

"He uses the process of elimination in selecting his
casts." Again the efficient masculine voice undertook
its share of the conversation. "He sees any number
of people for every role and
then eliminates them one by one
until he has decided upon the
most attractive person — the most
capable — and altogether the one
best suited to the particular role
he has in mind. Miss Boyle is
