# Page Content Analysis This is an advertising section from *Photoplay Magazine* (page 101). The page is dominated by advertisements rather than editorial content. The largest ad promotes Priscilla Dean Hats for Girls, featuring illustrated hats "for Spring and Summer" with a call to write for a style book. Additional advertisements include Mi-Rita Superfluous Hair Remover (with treatment instructions by Dr. Margaret Ruppert), and an ad for Meyer Both College's Commercial Art program. A brief continuation of the story "The Last Straw" appears in the left column, detailing dialogue between characters Lucy and her mother about Lucy's past romantic relationship with an actor named Hugh.
