14 MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE BETTER PICTURES for CHILDREN Everybody knows that if it wasn't for the children there wouldn't be much demand for censorship of films. It is the child that must be considered — the grown-ups can take care of themselves. There are several reasons why the theaters dont run regular children's programs, but we all agree that they ought to, and that it would be a good thing for them as well as for the children. If you want to know what those reasons are. read the article in the September Classic by Elizabeth Richey Dessez who is the greatest authority on the subject in America.

FOOT REMEDY CO. 3570 West 26th St. Chicaeo Ul PHOTOPLAY REVIEWS "The Perils of Divorce" (World).— Featuring Edna Wallace Hopper and Frank Sheridan. Miss Hopper plays the injured wife who is separated from her rich husband and little daughter by her designing rival who covets the wealthy John Graham, excellently done by Mr. Sheridan. Miss Hopper works valiantly in an impossible role thru many tribulations to the happy ending. Some good night photography is shown, including a skating carnival with gorgeous fireworks, and Edna palpablv ill at ease on her skates. F. D. M "Fathers of Men" (Vitagraph). — A long, red-hot story of the cold Northwest, in which Robert Edeson does some of his best work in a triple role. His facial expression registers remarkably well. William Humphrey's pallid face looked out of place, and was otherwise miscast. Naomi Childers is a beauty, but it requires other clothes than those she wears in this to set it off. Her acting, however, was good, as was also that of the entire cast. This play is not a masterpiece, but as an exciting melodrama it ought to be popular. Photography and settings excellent. J. THE ANSWER LADY By ROSE TAPLEY Editorial Note: Letters for this department should be addressed to Miss Rose Tapley, care of Vitagraph Co., Brooklyn, N. Y. Miss Tapley will answer by mail if an addressed, stamped envelope is enclosed. While the articles entitled "How to Get In" are running, Miss Tapley will net answer letters on that subject, nor will she answer any questions in the Magazine :hat are not of general interest, nor any that properly belong to the Department of The Answer Man. C. T. W. — You have reference to Grace Francis. She has not as yet appeared in any of the Vitagraph releases, but I am sure she will do very good work if she gets her opportunity. Carroll Dear. — Your letter did not fret me, as you suggest it might. It was lovely. I do indeed believe it is the illusion which they are seeking to pierce and that, were they to realize their longings, they would be very disappointed. M. V., Kansas City. — My dear child, so you and about ten others who have written me this month want Anita to marry Earle Williams. Why not let her enjoy her beautiful youth and give you all the benefits of her talents for awhile longer? She adores babies and loves a home so much that were she also to love any one special man, she would be very apt to forget any career that might be before her.
