NOTES OF THE PICTURE PLAYERS JOSEPH DAILEY Among the picture players who are known equally well to the Picture patrons of the halls and of the regular theaters, is Mr. Joseph Dailey, the comedian. Among his more notable successes in photoplay, the following might be mentioned: "A Tangled Masquerade," "Girls Will Be Boys," and "His Master's Son." In the last mentioned, Mr. Dailey's work as the old colored man will not soon be forgotten. A portrait of Mr. Dailey will be found in the "Picture Players" section of this magazine. MISS ALICE DONAVAN Another theatrical star who is shining lustrously in photoplay is Miss Alice Dona van, whose portrait adorns our Picture Player Gallery this month, and her expressive face will doubtless be recognized at once by thousands of readers who have been so often entertained by her. Her "hits" in photoplay have been many, but perhaps the greatest was in "The Greater Call," in which play Miss Donavan quite monopolized attention. MISS LAURA SAWYER Perhaps no picture player in the world is better known and more admired than Miss Laura Sawyer. Among her late masterpieces are the heroine in "Through the Clouds;" Alice Eenshaw in "The Black Bordered Letter ;" and the laborer's wife in "The Doctor." HERBERT PRIOR Another player of marked distinction is Herbert Prior, who plays in the same company with Miss Sawyer. Among his "hits" were the secretary to Eoberts, the Politician, in "Through the Clouds;" Alice Eenshaw's lover in "The Black Bordered Letter;" Mr. Carson in "The Link that Held;" and the laborer in "The Doctor." CHARLES OGLE Another prominent Picture player in the same company with Mr. Prior and Miss Sawyer, is Mr. Ogle, who will be remembered with pleasure as the contractor in "Through the Clouds;" The Old Duke in "The Days of Chivalry;" Dr. Clark in "The Black Bordered Letter;" and the doctor in "The Doctor." MABEL TRUNNELLE Miss Trunnelle will need no introduction, for she will readily be recognized as one of the leading stars in the Motion Picture world. One of Miss Trunnelle's latest successes was as the fiancee in "The Doctor," which interesting story will be found in this number. MELLE. GISELE GRAVIER Melle. Gravier will be at once recognized as the leading French actress, appearing in the notable foreign picture plays. KATHRYNE WILLIAMS Miss Kathryne Williams is noted for her beauty as well as for her exquisite acting, and, beautiful as our Gallery picture of Miss Williams is, it does not do this leading woman justice. What reader can look upon this picture, and upon the others, and not long to see them move in photoplay? As to our other players who this month adorn our Gallery, Miss Rita Davis, Miss Jennie Nelson, Miss Florence Wragland, Albert McGovern, and G. M. Anderson, more anon.
