just returned to Hollywood from

after completing "Thc Merry

Her return to studio land was
preceded by an erroneous news dis
patch from Cincinnati to the effect
that she had been in the hands of
Il famous surgeon there for an oper-
alton on her nose. The dispatch
surprised her friends, and, incident
ally, Miss Murray herself. The
Murray nose proved on arrival here
to be the same, genuine article that
had left some months ago, except
for a slight tilt in the direction of
one Mrs. Margaret Mergentime of
Central Park, West New York.
Investigation developed that Mrs.
Mcrgentime had gone to Cincinnati
for nose operation. Her husband
had been unable to accompany her.
