"Cartoonist's Wife

Has Story on Contests

Boston Mrs. Arthur C. Moger, wife of the motion picture cartoonist and promotion agent locally, has an article in this

Her theme is the conduct of contests in and out of theatres, a subject on which she should be well versed since her husband has conducted scores of local theatre and other contests. Mrs. Moger's story is well written and offers much interesting information. She is a graduate pharmacist and says Moger married her because he found "she could
