...York newspaper women gave a ball at the Ritz-Carlton. But Miss Margery Rex of the Hearst American was not present. That was because there is no such person as Miss Margery Rex. She is just a name, and whenever Mr. Hearst discharges the person who writes under that name he engages somebody else to be " Margery Rex "-thus losing none of the good will that the first Margery may have built up for his paper...
