# Page Description This is a feature article page titled "Who's the Prettiest Girl" from what appears to be *Photoplay Magazine*. The page showcases photographs of young women and describes a contest where readers can nominate candidates for a film contract. The text explains that Mr. Goldwyn has agreed to offer a year-long contract to the contest winner. The page displays three photographs: a large portrait of Miss Georgia Hale of Chicago (described as a "vivid brunette"), a smaller image labeled "More of Miss Hale. A little like Bebe Daniels," and an oval-framed portrait of Louise Lavison, identified as "a blonde beauty from the south-land—Memphis, Tennessee." The article invites readers to submit photographs of prospective actresses.
