A few Weeks ago there appeared in

tllal “Miss lilllel Clayton of this place
was: married yesterday to
lmmediatcly friends of Ethel Clay-
ton, tho nlolion plclure star, began tel~
ephoning and conveying in person
their congratulations. The pretty
screen actress was completely mystic
fled and suspected a conspiracy. To
the excited publicity man, who felt
chagrined that he hadn't been tipped
off to the hi.' event. Miss Clayton said:
”is this t:omebody's strange idea of
a joke? I'm not married and don't ex-
pect to be. And really I am in the best
to know. No, the good
locking young man with whom you
have seen with me; on the street is
not my husband or my fiancee. I ad-
mit I love him. though. He's my bro-
ther."
Later Miss Clayton saw the Inlslead‘
in: item herself. and appreciated the
joke. ' .
