146 THE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE Mrs. G. M., Rochester. — Hobart Bosworth and Marguerite Loveridge had the leads in "Seeds of Silver' (Selig). Your letter is as profound as Plato, as witty as Swift, and as bright as Holmes. When 1 die I will will yon my job. Takubu-a. — i)ont know the "Gladys" you refer to. Name some of the plays. Gaunioiit does not answer nor give us foreign easts. Kineniacolor are at 1G00 Broadway, New York City. Thanks for your nice words. R. T. B., Melbourne. — Charles H. Mailes and Blanche Sweet were man and wife, and Henry Walthall was the friend. Wilfred Lucas was leading man in "Enoch Arden." Rhoda Earle.— So you pick Earle Williams for a husband. Perhaps he should be permitted to have something to say about that, Write to Edward Lifka, 1944 Withnell Avenue, St. Louis, Mo., about the club. F. L. C. — Harry Myers and Ethel Clayton had the leads in "His Children" (Lubin). Charles Perley and Linda Griffith had the leads in "The Scarlet Letter" (Kinemacolor). Harry Northrup was the player in "Playing with Fire" (Vitagraph). So you dont think you could sit opposite me three times a day, after looking at my picture. Well, nobody asked you to. We may publish a book, "Who's Wrho in Filmdom." Oglalla, Sioux. — We can get very little information from Keystone, Broncho and Kay-Bee. Fred Church was the sweetheart in "Broncho Billy Gets Square" (Essanay). Yes, a picture of George Field soon. Dale W\ — Billy Quirk is on the stage, Warren Kerrigan with Victor, Ethel Clayton with Lubin, and Harold Lockwood with Nestor. Vitagraph have about as many players as any one. Yes, I manage to keep cool — with so many fans! Mamie H. — Thanks kindly for the cards. We do not carry that company's material. Viz. — Carlyle Blackwell and Billie Rhodes in "The Man WTho Vanished" (Kalem). Warren Kerrigan did not play in that Selig. That Kalem was taken in New Jersey. Curious Clarence. — Lionel Adams and Maidel Turner had the leads in "MotherLove" (Lubin). William Brunton and Helen Holmes had the leads in "The Runaway Freight" (Kalem). That Pathe was a foreign play, and we haven't the cast. We know of no place where you can get miniature photos of the players. Mary P. — Louise Huff in "A Waif of the Desert" (Lubin). WThere have you been? You are certainly an fait in the use of the king's English. C. B., Joliet. — Tom Moore was Dan in "The Primitive Man" (Kalem). Usually they use their own players instead of regular workmen. Thanks. That's right, aim high; the arrow in its flight always falls. What we earnestly aspire to be, that, in some sense, we are. Not much hope of getting Biograph chats. Joane D. P. — Marie Eline was the little boy in "Little Brother" (Thanhouser) . Lillian and Dorothy Gish and Blanche Sweet are still with Biograph. Mubl S. — It is well to fix your eye on perfection, but you mustn't expect anybody to reach it. Thanks. The Regent M. P. Theater is at lKJth St. and Seventh Ave., New York City, and it is worth going many miles to see. Desperate Desmond. — Carlyle Blackwell was chatted in July, 1912. Kempton Greene and Vivian Pates had the leads in "Bob Buys an Auto" (Lubin). Yes, we will chat Crane Wilbur over again. John F. F. — The sergeant in "Fight at Fort Laramie" (Kalem) is unknown. Al Garcia was the prince in "The Mansion of Misery" (Selig). Robert Burns was the thief, and George Reehm was the newspaper representative in "The Actress and Her Jewels" (Lubin). Albert Macklin was Bob in "Mother-Love" (Lubin). Walter Stull was John in "Beating Mother to It" (Lubin). Robyn Adair was Bob in "The Weaker Mind" (Lubin). Mildred Manning was the wife in "A Chance Deception" (Biograph). Frank Lanning was with Biograph last, I believe. Laura Sawyer is with Famous Players. Zena Keefe and Miss Raymond were the girls in "Does Advertising Pay?" (Vitagraph). Thank you kindly. Olga, 17. — Richard Stanton used to be the villain in the Melies pictures; he was with Kay-Bee last. Certainly, why not simplified spelling on the screen in the subtitles? That's just the place for it. Right you be again — most plays have too many sub-titles. It is hard to understand and to remember sub-titles, and when they are numerous it spoils our interest. Wanda. — William Brunton was Pasquale in "The Express-Car Mystery" (Kalem). Harold Livingston was the messenger and Helen Holmes his wife. Robert* Harron was the boy, Miss L. Langdon his mother, and Mildred Manning his cousin in "The Girl Across tiie Way." Yes; Mae Marsh was the girl. Fay, of 'Cisco. — "Romeo and Juliet" (Pathe) was taken in Europe. Francesca Bertini had the lead. Three or four thousand queries a month. Courtenay, New Orleans.— Myrtle Stedman and WTilliam Duncan had the leads in "The Silver Grindstone" (Selig). Alice Hollister was the girl in "The Vampire" (Kalem). Everybody seemed to like the December number. Thanks. Seventeen. — Earle Metcalfe was Frank in "Partners in Crime" (Lubin). Ethel Clayton was the girl. Your letter is written correctly. Wonderful idea of yours. Next you will be nominating Bunny as Cupid. May De B.— You must not ask for descriptions of our artists. William Duncan.
