And the white light of the glowing arc reveals one, in all that frivolous galaxy of beauties, who will reach your heart with the sacrifice she made when she "gave up" her millionaire sweetheart to marry a man "poor as a church mouse." She smashed a chorus-girl tradition when she did it never to "miss the money" but she found happiness greater than wealth. How? What's it all about? Try to come tonight and find out.
