J .<s oo o o o o » o a Otto aooaooo s^g^3stJa;A^^iJ^ii^:tJ«jtiAtt^ Photoplays and Players for 1 9 1 7 ONE of PHOTOPLAY'S most interesting recent engagements is MISS ANITA LOOS, petite twenty-year-old humorist of the Fine Arts studio, author of the Douglas Fairbanks stories. Miss Loos is writing a captivating series entitled : " Letters of a Movie Star to Her Little Sister." These letters will begin in an early issue. Watch for them! In 1917 the screen universe will pass before you, conjured up by the articles, interviews, reviews, news-stories, investigations, analyses, reminiscences prophecies, and verbal humoresques of PHOTOPLAY'S exclusive and absolutely unrivalled list of talented writers, among whom may be mentioned : Channing Pollock Alfred A. Cohn Julian Johnson Harry C. Carr Kenneth McGaffey Randolph Bartlett William M. Henry Grace Kingsley Lillian Howard Leslie T. Peacocke Raumond StaSS °^ California, undoubtedly the foremost outdoor photographer in America, has just signed an exclusive contract with PHOTOPLAY. The remarkable, intimate studies of Western photoplayers published in these pages have been mainly STAGG prints. The best screen fiction available will be found in PHOTOPLAY every month. In addition to its great new serials, its new short fiction and other splendid features, PHOTOPLAY will select one or two of the choicest film features for every issue. These will be written in a high vein of literary excellence, and photographically illustrated in a way that will make genuine art of the stillcamera's products. Among PHOTOPLAY'S narrators of screen fiction for 1 9 1 7 you will find Mrs. Ray Long Constance Severence Clarie Marchand Bess Burgess Jerome Shorey Miss NeUSa MclVIein ■"a'^es her first appearance in PHOTOPLAY with her painting of Norma Talmadge, on the cover of this issue. Miss McMein's covers will be a feature throughout the year. Do not think that this tremendous campaign in great fiction means any abatement of Photoplay's searchlight policy on the outside and inside of the moving picture business In 1 9 1 7 we are going to give you the same varied periodical — doubled in value; that's all.
