Her newest ve- hicle is "Green Eyes," and as the title indicates, it deals with the vital men- ster provokes in the lives of many men and women in this' modern day. The story has upustial heart appeal, and js filled with intensely dramatic situations. Another highly success- ful photoplay is "The City of Dim Faces," starring the celebrated Jap- anese actor Sessue Nayakawa.
