Now she ’Is returning to the Screen in “Ladies Love Brutes1? and what a v difference! She is beautiful nothing less and one of the most refined looking women In pictures: And as for voice well we have yet to hear any that can compare with Mary's Yes we’re crazy for her I j Mary Astor had sort of a tough break when her husband Kenneth Hawks was killed in that aeroplane disaster That is probably the main reason that she returned to the screen believing that work is the best way to forget ‘Ladies Love Brutes- ”- is her first picture since her husband's death but well wa ger it won’t be her last Guess that’s about enough bou quets for Mary Astor!
