H8 Picture Show Annual Below : Zasu Pills, whom you never fotgel, whether you have seen her in comedy or tragedy. At the left is the humorous countenance of Karl Dane, whose part of Slim in “The Big Parade ” gained him starring roles. Otis Harlan, who has played in many Reginald Denny films, including What Happened to fones," “ ril Show You the Town," and “ Be Yourself." the truth is that 2!asu is really an attrac- tive girl in her outdoor moments. But the Zasu Pitts of the screen compels atten- tion by the extraordinary expression she puts into her face.
