DAVIS, M.D. 124-H Grove Avenue Woodbridge, N. J. The Editor Gossips {Continued from page 53) flat that a man from New York desired an interview with Miss Turner. She believed he represented a newspaper and was desirous of interviewing her about a tworeel film she had made shortly before in which she had imitated several of our American stars. She hoped some word of her impersonations had found its way across the Atlantic. She was to be interviewed. . . . It was as tho a shadow from her erstwhile fame moved across her drear path. She planned the engagement away from home. A bare flat, crying aloud of poverty, that is hardly a background against which a motion picture star may be interviewed. She planned her costume carefully. A suit bought in Paris years before was brushed and pressed for the occasion. And a Paris suit is a Paris suit. A paradise feather, reminiscent of gay, care-free days, brightened her hat. And Florence Turner went forth to keep her engagement. Of course the poor man thought he had found the wrong person. But finally, when she was confronted with a clipping which he had and which spoke of her poverty and poor health, she admitted everything. She realized the truth had seeped thru because of a letter she had written a character man, formerly with her at the Vitagraph, in which she had said there would be no customary gift this Christmas because she was in such straits. After much deliberation and thought, it appears that he had decided to make her plight known. Maybe he knew that his profession would not permit a veteran to brave misfortune without offering assistance. Miss Turner explained that it was really a relief to quit the heart-breaking game she had been forced to play. It was a relief, too, to admit all those things which she and her mother had been dedicating their lives in disguising. Failure, humility, poverty — three grey sisters. But it would seem that they had left Florence Turner her sense of humor. She can laugh at the old French suit and the paradise plume which so nearly condemned her to a continuance of the life that is now behind her. And the fact that she can laugh goes far in proving that the bruises life has dealt her have not stamped out her spirit. We take this space publicly to welcome the screen's veteran actress back to the shores which she left in her heyday, ignorant of the trials which awaited her a few months ahead. And then we stop with praise for Marion Davies. The youth which Miss Davies knows — youth supplemented with wealth and fame — is not apt to be thoughtful and charitable. Youth is gay with dancing feet and eyes turned towards the stars . . . superior with untried confidence imperious with its heritage of health, courage and beauty still untouched . . . and lacking sympathy because it lacks understanding and experience. Surely when such youth stops in its parade of glamorous days to hold forth a helping hand to a comrade in distress, it is an unusual youth, rich in promise. We started this gossip shop because it seemed to us that the casual, intimate things . . . the intermittent amusing things . . . and the most interesting things generally never found their way into print. For instance, we think the following excerpt from a friendly letter Helen Car One time a local newspaper in a little town where Jack Holt and Noah Beery were on location wrote them up on the front page. They said, among other things: "Mr. Jack Holt is accompanied by his wife, who is known on the screen as Miss Norah Beery." And now Jack calls Noah his squaw 110 GE.
