Motion Picture Magazine (Aug 1921-Jan 1922)

CPTC2i£KiTUB Now, I would like to say, that I will be more than glad to correspond with real fans, both in this country and foreign lands, and especially, someone in Paris. I suppose that betrays my nationality. Here's three cheers for Anita's "Sowing the Wind/' and I wish her every success and much popularity. I will write again, for I have another star to talk about. But, before closing, let me say that I think Motion Picture is the greatest magazine of the screen. Sincerely a fan, Dick Durand, jr., 356 N. Indiana Avenue, Kankakee, 111. for "Sentimental More praise Tommy." Dear Editor : — I want to write to you about a recent picture — "Sentimental Tommy." Do you know that I had read the book about a year ago, and I thought it a wonderful little story? But, when I heard that it was going to be made into a picture, I said to my friends, that the producer would never get that Scottish atmosphere, especially in the town of Thrums, nor make the characters so interesting as Barrie painted them. But, indeed, I was very much surprised when I saw it on the screen. The people chosen to act the parts were wonderful. It seemed as if all the characters just walked out of the book and thought they would like to have their readers see them — Gareth Hughes and May McAvoy were especially interesting. These two young people are something out of the ordinary. They can act, and should be given unusual photoplays, so that they may show their wonderful talent. It is such people that are entitled to stardom, as they give the best that is in them, instead of others, who get by on a pretty face, and lots of advertising. Here's more and more success to Gareth Hughes and May McAvoy, and I hope the screen will give us another picture as good as "Sentimental Tommy," and also hope there will be a few more movie folk like Gareth Hughes and May McAvoy. Sincerely yours, Claire Lehman, 427 Vermont Street, Brooklyn, N. Y. There are two sides to every question. Below is a letter sponsoring the happy ending. Undoubtedly many will agree with these sentiments: Dear Editor: — I was greatly interested in the letter from Walter I. Moses, of Illinois. It is a subject that I have been interested in for some time. When we enter the theater, to watch the trials and tribulations of our favorite movie actors and actresses, we are, for the time being, children watching a story unfold before our eyes. And as children want their stories to end happily, so do we want our screen plays to end happily, altho we know that our troubles are just beginning, when we are married. However, we dont want to live over the troubles we know exist. We want to leave the theater contentedly feeling that our favorite hero and heroine will live happily forever after. I suppose, if all thought the same as I do, that we would not have any really great screen stories, but it is a relief to watch screen trials ending in mystical happiness. I would be very glad to have any movie fan write to me. Sincerely yours, Edna L. Melcher. 102 North Street, Salem, Mass. I You Wffl See Prettier teeth — safer teeth — in a week We will send for the asking a newmethod tooth paste. Modern authorities advise it. Leading dentists everywhere now urge its daily use. To millions of people it has brought whiter, safer, cleaner teeth. It will bring them to you and yours. See and feel the delightful results and judge what they mean to you. Removes the film It removes the film — that viscous film you feel. No old method ever did that effectively. Film clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. It dims the teeth and leads to attacks on them. It is the cause of most tooth troubles. Those troubles have been constantly increasing, because old methods failed to combat film effectively. Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look dingy. Film is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Also of internal troubles. Ways to combat it Dental science has now found two effective film combatants. Able authorities have amply proved them. Now dentists the world over are urging their adoption. These methods are combined in a dentifrice called Pepsodent — a tooth paste which meets every modern requirement. And a ten-day test is now supplied to everyone who asks. These effects will delight you Pepsodent removes the film. Then it leaves teeth highly polished, so film less easily adheres. It also multiplies the salivary flow — Nature's great tooth-protecting agent. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva — the factor which digests starch deposits that cling. It multiplies the alkalinity of the saliva — the factor which neutralizes acids. Every application brings these five effects. The film is combated, Nature's forces are multiplied. The benefits are quickly apparent. Send the coupon for a 10-Day Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous film. See how teeth whiten as the filmcoats disappear. Compare the new way with the old, then decide for yourself which is best. Cut out the coupon now. This is too important to forget.
