CLARA BOW TO RETURN.

STAR WHO WAS SPOILT BY SUCCESS. UNWANTED NOTORIETY. Clara Bow is perhaps the world's most famous "redhead," typical of zestful, modern youth, with its irresponsibility personified. Fame came to the dynamic Clara in large doses, and she knew how to take it, yet site became the unhappy victim of that which had lifted her to a place amongst the world's greatest personalities. Clara really did not want to be notorious, and she did not intend her escapades to land her on the front page of every scandal sheet in New York and Chicago as well as newspapers the world over. Born in humble circumstances, and brought up in much the same atmosphere, Clara's early youth was marked by her tireless efforts to better herself and to achieve something. She had the stuff that skilled hands can mould into screen stars, and from a modest place in "movie" billing slic rose until her name was on the world's lips and the bright lights of Broadway Hashed "Clara Bow" from tho dim tops of Manhattan skyscrapers. She did what she wanted to do, regardless of the commands of "movie" moguls who threatened to cancel her contracts and to confiscate her "good conduct" money. Clara Bow was mistress of her own destinies until her path led her into the very centre of the spotlight of notoriety — a light so strong that the zestful favourite eventually retired i with eyes running from the glare. What has Clara been doing these long months? Kesting and repenting maybe, but more than any tiling else getting back into a world of spiritual complacency. And now she's coming back to the screen. Clara has signed up with a major film corporation, and her lirst picture will lie entitled "Get the Woman" —a little risque by the sound of it, but then, how the world lovee its Bow girl!
