144 THE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE Lottie D. T. — Velma Whitman was Nell, and Henry King was Sam in "Playing with Fire" (Lubin). Tina Kelly was the maid in "Mrs. Upton's Device" (Vitagraph). Beverly Bayne was the girl in "The Right of Way" (Essanay). Billie West was the girl in "A Fail into Luck" (American). No; F. E. G. does not belong to the club. Herman.— Wrong, my lord ; George Washington was six feet two, and weighed 220 pounds. Jefferson weighed the same, but was half an inch taller. They were the tallest Presidents we have had except Lincoln, who was six feet four. Officer 666. — Evelyn Selbie was the girl in "Rustler's Step-daughter" (Essanay). Tom Moore was the minister in "Our New Minister" (Kalem). Mae Marsh was Anne and D. Crisp the brother. Mary Ellen. — Eleanor Woodruff and Pearl Sindelar in that Pathe. John Ince was Rattlesnake Bill. Beverly Bayne in "The Death Weight" (Essanay). Louise Glaum had the lead in "The Quakeress" (Broncho). Leo Maloney was Jason in "The Demand for Justice" (Kalem). Helen Holmes was the girl.

Frances Ne Moyer was the. girl in "The Female Detective." Sassy Little. — Tom Carrigan in that Selig with Adrienne Kroell. The player you mention went in where the water was over his head — the part was not in his line. I wonder why directors will not take more care in making up their casts, which reminds me of Coquelin's words : "I have never played other parts than those which I could play. Did anybody ever see me play the lover? Never." Pansy. — So Warren Kerrigan won in the contest running in The Pansy Motion Picture Correspondence News, with Billy Mason as second and Edith Storey as third. G. and P., Crawfordsvllle. — William Shay was the reporter in "His Hour of Triumph" (Imp). Marie Eline was the Thanhouser Kid, but from now on she is going to be Marie Eline. R. S., Derm ott.— Well, why dont you tell the manager that you want, newer pictures than ten months old? Edgar Jones and Clara Williams in "On a Mountain Ranch." Dixie. — Sorry to hear of your sickness. Earle Foxe opposite Florence Lawrence in "Girl o' the Woods" (Victor). Ethel Davis was the actress in "The Missionary and the Actress" (Selig). O. M. S. — We have never printed a picture of Carl Von Schiller. That was a tamed snake that Romaine Fielding had in "The Rattlesnake." Yes, gruesome. We'll have to call him the Poe of the pictures. Richard Travers in that Essanay. Dorothy P. — Yes ; Alice Joyce and Tom Moore in "The New Minister." Flossie does not write any more. Mae P. — The verse is very good. King Baggot is not dead. But he is married. Gladys Hulette was the stenographer in "Why Girls Leave Home" (Edison). Jesse Jimmie: — The writing is all right, but of course typewriting is much better to read. Chester Barnett has left Crystal. Broncho Billy runs a theater in Calif ornia. W. R. Brooks. — Dolly Ohnet was Edward Dillons girl in "A Compromising Com plication" (Biograph). You might try Biograph, but I doubt if they will help you. Hercules. — Warren Kerrigan is with Victor, and Jessalyn Van Trump is leading lady. The editor wants to cut down this department to ten or fifteen pages. What say you? Juliet. — Come right along. Avenue M and Elm Avenue are the same station, So you have dropped all your lovers for Mr. Bushman. And you think that Ruth Roland is not a success as a bearded lady. Well, wasn't she when she removed the beard? She is interesting and clever in everything. Gbanny. — I'm so sorry. Romaine Fielding was second in another contest given by a newspaper. Cant tell you why so few theaters in your vicinity run Licensed pictures, unless the people dont want them. It is just the opposite in other neighborhoods. Mar.iorie S. W. — Gertrude Bambrick was the girl in "The Lady in Black" (Biograph ) . Yes, but whom are we to blame for that immoral play — the writer, the editor, the players, the director, the manufacturer, the exchange, the censors, or the exhibitors? Perhaps the manufacturer never saw it, but he should be held responsible. Alice H. — Do ycu mean Mrs. Mary Maurice? She called at our office a short time ago. She is a lovely woman. E. D. N., Philadelphia. — Muriel Ostriche was the girl in "The Flood Tide" (Thanhouser). Marguerite Snow has been ill for some time. Ned, N. X. — To whom do you refer, Gladys Field, Miss Fisher, Yedah Bertram, Evelyn Selbie or Marguerite Clayton? Miss Selbie is still with Essanay. Doris W. — Yes, of The Moving Picture World. I forgive you, because I forgot all about it. It is easier to forget than to forgive. Rosetta Brice in "Price of Victory." Billy, Delta Kappa Epsilox. — Wallace Reid seems to have your heart as well*as your admiration. He had the lead in "The Wall of Money." Mrs. L. B. A. — Your letter is very interesting. Yes, table manners are very often forgotten in the pictures. You refer to Thomas Carrigan in the Selig. Thanks.
