Motion Picture Story Magazine (Feb 1914 - Sep 1916 (assorted issues))

152 ANSWER DEPARTMENT Fielding Fax. — Pauline Frederick was born in Boston in 1884. I dont think Romaine Fielding is playing now. You've got me. Last I heard from him he was secretary for the Pansy Club. My mistake, Florence Turner and not Florence Lawrence in "My Old Dutch." Do you know that you are a charming letter-writer? Beth, N. C. — No to your first. Your second has been answered before many a time. You wont see Lottie Pickford for a while for certain reasons. Jack Standing with Triangle. You named your five playful kittens after your five favorite players? Did vou think that would make them more playful? Olga, 17. — So here you be again! Please dont call me Angelface. Not with these glass eyes. You must come over to see us. What would life be without a letter from you every month? Marjorie C, Memphis. — Thank you for the box of beautiful flowers. What are they? We dont have those up North. Olive M. W., Australia. — Minta Durfee was Lizzie in "Leading Lizzie Astray." And you want a photograph of Norma Talmadge in the Gallery. Thanks for the clipping. You know there are several letters coming in with postage due, and it would ruin us to pay them all. Melva. — Wilmuth Merkyl was Stephen in "Blazing Love." Yes, Louise Glaum is a very good — I mean a very bad — vampire. You think the Vera Sisson was the handsomest cover we have had. Just you wait! W. S. A. H., Portsmouth. — I think that Anita Davis is a Western girl, for she knows a good deal about forestry, birds and animals, and is a crack shot. Oh, yes, "David Garrick" wa once produced by Vitagraph and also lately by Pallas. The yarn is a historical fact, and any company can produce it. Lots of similar historic incidents have been done more than once. Kettle Junior. — Just because I wont state who is the best player and the best com pany, and who is married to whom, and so on, you call me a coward. I admit that I am a coward; that is why I make so few mistakes. Owen Moore is with Famous Players. Ivan W. D. — "Hulda from Holland" is Mary Pickford's latest picture. I believe her next will be a gypsy picture, and then she will wear a black wig. You want us to double the picture gallery of the Classic. We probably shall when this infernal war is over and we can get the paper. Myrtle Stedman is with Morosco. Write to Pathe for pictures of Octavia Handworth. Abe, 99. — Do you know that I admire your letter-writing? Billie Billings was the girl in "The Hunted Woman" (Vitagraph). Will T. Henderson's monthly hasn't been seen for some time now. True 'tis, 'tis pity; and pity 'tis, 'tis true. Dorothy B. Leslie. — Charlotte Burton is with American. Marvel Spencer with Centaur. I guess Marguerite Snow answers letters. She is with the Ivan, and James Cruze is with Metro. Sydney Mason with the Jacksonville Gaumont Co. He is very fond of animals and is working to obtain an animal ambulance for Jacksonville. Laughing Mask. — No, Arnold Daly is not playing for Pathe now. It hasn't been decided as yet. Grace Ellison has always made them sit up and take notice. It was as Molly in "Ourselves" and in "Damaged Goods" on the regular stage that she did the moral high-hurdles. Lois B. — You will get your answer by reading the article in last month's Magazine. Yes, Ben Wilson was John in "Souls in Pawn." The theaters that advertised "Pauline Frederick Sold in Five Parts" had no dire intentions on her anatomy. She is not a "vulgar fraction," but one of our greatest players. Abe, 99. — You say you know several screen stars who are living off the printer's ink, and not off the celluloid. Press agent stuff! You will see Ruth Stonehouse in Universal pictures. Florence B. — I have never come across that snapshot. Yes, we published "A Million Bid" in February, 1914. It hasn't been reissued yet. Thanks for the compliments. Bruce W. — Mary Anderson was born in Brooklyn, N. Y., on June 28th, 1897. Educated at Erasmus Hall High School. Expert Grecian dancer. Married to Mr. Pliny Goodfriend, director at Vitagraph Western. Her parents and • she are typical Americans. She is very pretty. She applied at Vitagraph as an "extra," and has worked her way up to stardom. Kenneth F., San Diego. — Sorry, Kenneth, but you should read "How to Ge± In." Do Away with1 Motion Play Actors Their Clothes!
