into the movies.
That her maiden effort as a screen
star already sets her in the front
rank of motion-picture actresses, Is
the opinion of everyone who will
see 'Heedless Moths" the Audrey
Munson photopiay. As her director,
Robert u. Leonard declared when
the picture was completed, Miss
Munson takes to the screen like a
fish to water
The noted model was fortunate
enough to make her debut on the
screen in a picture that has rarely
been equalled in artistry and ex-
travagance. In addition to the mag
~nificance of the production itself. the
picture possesses the added inter-
est of being a true narrative OF
Miss M%unson's life within arust
studios.
From the day when she en-
barked on her career and was
forced to fight all the trickery and
hypocricy of sham, artists whose
only interest in art was to lure UNI
~suspecting girls to their studios,
up to the present day. when Miss
Munson has attained the pinnacle
of her fame as the worlds most
beautiful art model. "Heedless
Moths" describes every step in her
career.
Besides the powerful love-story
which Needless Moths" contains,
there are scenes in artists cham
bers which have rarely been match
ed for picturesqueness and charm.
The figure of Miss Munson also
plays prominently in the picture,
and spectators of this unusual film
will find a delight in beholding the
most perfect womanly form of the
age.
1t will be easy to understand why
Audrey Munson was chosen MS the
model for the country's greatest
statutes. In every large city of the
country, Miss Munson's person a
been the model which the artist
used in the statuary that adorns
municipal buildings and museums.

building of three-quarters of a mile
of road which would require $780,

buildings and the purchase of the
