Nutty. — I hiven't the name of the play Lew Dockstader played in. Charlie Chaplin played in "The Face on the Barroom Floor." No girl in the cast, Advertising Slides' Let the Do the Advertising Upon and it was produced by Keystone. Not at all. Maim i n T., OsWEGO. — I know for a fact that what you write about Mary Pickford is not true. A lie has no legs and cannot stand long without many other lies to help it, but it can run fearfully fast and cover a lot of ground. Yes, I like Leah Baird's playing. She always looks beautiful and carries herself well. Clytik L., Canada.— Jack Dean is with Lasky. Duncan McRae was George in "A Woman's Law."

Possibly that will be the name of the play. Erna R. — I dont agree with you at all about the CLaplin comedies. They certainly make me laugh, and laughing makes me feel good.
