Different from any role in which Miss Harlow has ever ap- peared, it is one that she per- sonally requested to do, and ad-. vance reports have it that the role is by far Miss Harlow's finest screen characterization.

A highlight of the picture is Miss Harlow's singing of "Did I Re- member?" a new song written 'Fazignment. She is the possessor especially for her by the noted of an unusual'y clear sweet voice,song-writing team or Harold
