trance of Mrs. Lydig Hoyt, famous
New York society woman, into the
movies, not as a stunt for the bene-
fit of the Childish Dogs hospital,

example will soon be followed by
other social leaders-whether or not
they have Mrs. Hoyt's qualifications
and the columns of Chit-Chat in
the daily and weekly papers will have
their scenes in movie studios in
place of the east Seventies and the
Ritz.
