If a 50-cent piece is sent, wrap it in folded paper nnd enclose in envelope in your letter. An unwrapped coin sometimes cuts thru the envelope and is lost in the mails.

ANSWER DEPARTMENT Renee R. — You say you had nothing else to do and thought you would write to me. You pay me an exalted compliment, my dear. Of course I get the whole $9.00 at one time, but I dont spend it that way. Actions lie louder than words, particularly on the screen. C. D. — Why do you ask if they are related? It seems I must learn the family tree and pedigree of every player rather than the plays they have played in. No, I haven't celebrated my one-hundredth birthday yet. Florence P. — Thanks, but I have already made correction. L. E. G. — Creighton Hale and Pearl White in "Iron Claw." Arthur Ashley was Jim in "Little Mademoiselle." Mollie King in "Call of Love." Vivian Martin in "Little Mademoiselle/' Sound moves 743 miles per hour. Think I told some one that before. You weren't listening. Justin B. — Gertrude Shipman was Camille in "Camille." Ada Gifford is no longer with Vitagraph. David Griffith produced "The Birth of a Nation" and Thomas Dixon produced "The Fall of a Nation," and Griffith had nothing to do with the latter, and I suppose he will be glad of it. Why compare "The Birth of a Nation" with "Cabiria"? Can you compare a racehorse with a reindeer? Mr. Dixon had nothing to do with "The Birth of a Nation," but it was filmed from his book "The Clansman." Abe, 99.— You here again? Lester Chambers was Malone and Carl Harbaugh was Dawson in "Big Jim Garrity" (Pathe). Lewis Stone was Craig in "The Havoc" (Essanay). John Sampolis was Hanby in "The Social Highwayman." You say "Brevity is the best policy," but you dont practice what you preach. Phyllis Allen was the girl in "The Submarine Pirates."
