Motion Picture Magazine (Nov 1916-Jan 1917)

MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE 161 Dear Canadian. — I must confess I like Canadians and Moving Pictures. As to favorites, well there are so many lovely girls and such charming women that it is pretty hard to make a choice, but I dearly love "Mother Maurice" and. she is my favorite. Yes, Miss Pickford wears her own hair. There are so many stories regarding Miss Bara's origin that it would he folly for me to attempt to make any positive statements regarding it. I think her a very beautiful woman. Get the Moving Picture Registry Book, printed at 729 Seventh Ave., N. Y., and that will give you full particulars about every one you ask about. Thirteen Years Old Rose. — Mary Fuller is an old friend of mine and I am very fond of her. I played in "The Lion and the Mouse" on the legitimate stage, not on the screen. Look in some of our back issues and you will find some very good descriptions of Miss Fuller. We need good teachers and I hope you may gain your wish, dear. Address her care of Dramatic Mirror, N. Y. City. "Axxious," Calgary. — I have neither seen nor heard of Miss Leonard for some time. Will make some inquiries about her. Perhaps Miss Lawrence loved her home so much that she felt she wanted to go back to it. Her husband used to direct her, but I cant remember his name. Florence Turner is back again in America. She is tiny, dark, with big black eyes, a generoussized mouth and the kindest heart in the world. She loves her work and tries to give her public the best she has to give always. My Dear Far-away Brother. — I must j answer thru the Magazine, as you didn't enclose a stamped and addressed envelope. : It is almost .impossible to get into pictures j now and is getting harder every day. I do not approve of these schools which pretend to teach Moving Picture and stage acting, j They get your money and are no better able : to get you a position then than they are in the beginning. You just turn your talents in another direction, dear boy, and let me j hear that you have taken my advice. It is good. Affectionately, Sister Rose. Dear Theda Bara Admirer. — None of the Mayos are related closely; at least the ones ; you mention. I met Edna Mayo in Chicago and she is very sweet. Dear Little Sister Helen. — My youngest letter makes me very happy, as I want the love and confidence of my readers. It was a great pleasure to meet all those delightful people in Chicago. I wish I had a decent picture of myself, but I haven't one at present, altho I had some splendid ones, made at Smith & Lewis', Blackston Hotel. Perhaps you could get one there. My best love, dear, and I hope you come to a satisfactory decision regarding your future. Dear Girl from Bath, Me. — I do indeed hope that you come to New York at a time when I am in the city. I shall be so glad to meet you. DOWN FREE TRIAL nw.-Himn ■■* Billiard and Pool Table can be mounted on dining or library table or on its own legs or folding stand. No special room is needed.
