Description:
Began publishing in 1915; mid-level fan magazine on par with Movie Classic and Screenland. Cost a twenty five cents an issue up until pricing pressure from New Movie (c. 1932) incited an across-the-board price decrease to 10 cents. Merged with Charm in 1941, which would later become Glamour magazine (1959). -- Anne Helen Petersen, 2013.

Up in the Morning! J5 arise and punch the time clock at stars who have to do the same thing. Somebody's been teaching Ann Pennington's clock arithmetic! It just struck ten, and Ann knoivs it was multiplying instead of adding. The timepiece looks innocent, of course — but Wanda Hawley suspects it. For if it's really j fast, instead of being as staid as it appears, she can curl' up among the pillows for one *" a\ more dream before j&gf* her breakfast tray arrives. How maddening it is to be quite resigned to being up, and then remember, as Kitty Gordon has just done, that she doesn't have to report at the studio to-day! The technique of eating breakfast in bed is too much for Vivian Martin. By the time she has donned this negligee, and then rushed back to bed again, she might just as well have gone down to the dining room. : \ If this is the day she goes to the milliner's, Enid Bennett still has an hour to spare for an extra nap. If it's the morning she looks over scenarios with her director, she's an hour late. Heads or "tales"? Let's hope it's heads, for her sake.
