June 1923 – What do you think?

I am writing in response to an opinion published in your movie magazine by Lance C.  The tripe he wrote annoyed me by saving we girls are changeable and fickle. That when we eulogise a new film star, we immediately forget the old favourites. I’m most awfully fond of nearly a dozen fine film stars, and yet I’ve tons of room in my heart for Rodolph Valentino.  Please tell the world, that we girls have elastic hears and can cram no end of loves inside for anybody but the worthless idiot Lance C after his cutting and quite inexcusable remarks.  No one with a nice name like that ought to say nasty things about girls. Don’t you think I’m quite right? About the elastic hearts, most certainly I do.
