Mae Murray in "A Mormon Maid." Hobart Bosworth opposite. Billy Rody. — Alma Reubens opposite William S. Hart in "Truthful Tulliver." The origin of the name "Gotham" as applied to the city of New York is contained in a humorous book called "Salmagundi," written by "Washington Irving, his brother William, and James K. Paulding, and is used to signify that the inhabitants were given to undue pretensions to wisdom. Yes, ,1 do think Homer Rodeheaver is handsome. Harry D. H. — Clara Horton is still with Universal. I know of no correspondence club in which movie stars take an • active part. You would better take a chance and write direct. M. B. — Italy expects some day to be comfortably seated on the Ottoman, snug as a bug in a Turkish rug. Mae Murray is about 5 feet 3 tall. We had a chat with her March, 1917. Peggy. — I believe in Christian Science to a certain extent. I once was in a railroad accident and met a mental healer who tried to fix me up — should I say met-a-physician? — but I wish he had been a regular physician. You want a synopsis of the lives of Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks. I suppose you will want the scenario after that. Beatriz Michelena now unattached. Jane U. — No, my glasses are not three j inches thick. You are very clever. I like your letters. Didn't I tell you that I did not have a funny bone in my body— not even a funny-bone? But I have a wishbone. Herman H.— You are one of the many who want my opinion on the war. Heretofore I have said a few things about it, but they I always give offense to somebody, so I have held off. Let me say right here that I am neutral. I admire the German race im [ mensely, and think that in many respects it is the greatest that the world has produced. | Yet, the Germans today are nothing short of buccaneers and outlaws, disregarding ; promises, treaties, honor and law. But we must not forget that the Allies have prom ! ised to wipe Germany off the map, hence Germany is fighting for existence, and perhaps all is fair in love and war. When a man is dying, he doesn't have time to think of honor and ethics — he fights to live. I think peace will come soon, because both sides are well nigh exhausted. No doubt the Allies can hold out longest if they want to, but at the present time the Germans have fought them to a standstill. I fear for the world if Prussian militarism should rule hereafter. I dont think America will get very much involved in the war. I approve of all that President Wilson has done. J. Albert S. — Ethelmary Oakland was not on the cast. You think Marguerite Clark and May Allison resemble each other. I dont. You're really very kind. Universal are releasing a new 8 2-reel drama serial, "The Perils of the Secret Service."
