Motion Picture Story Magazine (Feb 1914 - Sep 1916 (assorted issues))

MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE THE ANSWER LADY Worried. — Neither the stage nor the Moving Pictures are "low down." The ministry, itself, has had its "black sheep," but that does not mean that all ministers are bad, nor the Gospel they teach wrong. There are many noble men and women in pictures and on the stage who are doing their best in helping to preach the love and brotherhood of man. H. S. H., Boston. — Yes, indeed, Pearl White is a lovely girl. I have not seen her in some time, but I believe that her eyes are a dark blue. L. B., Texas. — My grandmother was Caroline Bartlett, so you see the name is familiar. Shall be delighted indeed to play in your play if my firm will produce it. Best luck to you. Annabelle Dear. — His name is Arthur Cozine and he is a very nice young man. My Dear Little Sister Elaine. — I wish I knew your hiother, and I would tell her that if you are looking for evil, you will probably find it, but that most of the directors nowadays are either married, with a family to care for, or too busy making good to their firm to bother about any of their company. Tell mother this, and if she feels you are the right kind of girl — and I am sure you are — she will no longer hesitate to let you take advantage of the opportunity offered you. Rachel E. — Thank you, dear, for your nice letter. Hope you become a great photoplay writer. Sister Sally. — You have splendid ambitions and lots of good common-sense. Am glad y6\i are such an admirer of Miss Shay. I did indeed think she was lovely. Elizabeth Dear, Washington. — If you are really sincerely earnest in your desire to do anything, and if you really have talent in that direction, the opportunity must come which will give you your chance. Keep on with your education, however, as that is a most valuable asset. Louise of Calif. — My dear girl, there are two books which I would recommend above all others to those who are studying literature and the drama. They are the Bible and Shakespeare. Stewart Lover. — Miss Stewart is even sweeter and dearer in reality than she seems on the screen. I have known her from a very young girl. I wish you might hear her play some difficult classical selection on the piano, and then, just as simply and as perfectly, play and sing some lovely old ballad, until you feel the choke in your throat and the tears smarting your eyes. Emma L., Lansing, Mich.; Lucretia B. — I regret that I haven't a photo of myself at present; when I have time I will have some taken. Frances K., Gipsy Dear, Cleveland, Ohio; Victoria Z.; J. R.; San Jose Admirer. — Read the "How to Get In" articles now appearing in the Magazine and Classic. They will answer your questions very fully.
