SCREENLAND The Cleverest Girl in Hollywood! WE'LL have to explain that. We'll be glad to ! There may be prettier girls and more poignant performers. But there is no other star in pictures with the all-around competence of Norma Shearer. She can give the illusion of great beauty — even though you may not consider her actually beautiful. She can play comedy and drama with equal facility. She has never yet turned out a mediocre picture. "Strangers May Kiss," her latest, isn't art — but it is good box-office entertainment, enhanced by the sparkling performance of its star.
