160 THE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE Johnnie, the First. — Thanks for the clipping. Frank Clark was Mr. Brown in "Alone in the Jungle" (Selig). Lillian Haywood was the girl, and Thomas Santsehi was Boh in "Boh Arden" (Selig). Paul Hurst was Fred, and Marin Sais was the wife in "On the Brink of Ruin" (Kaleni). Peggy Reid had the lead in "Forgive Us Our Trespasses" (Thanhouser). Paul Panzer in "The Governor's Doubie" (Pathe). Benedict. — William Bodie was the boy you marked in that Kalem. Haven't his address ; write Kalem. Mabel M.— Robert Harron in that Biograph. We know of no daughter belonging to Clara Young. No ; George Gebhardt is not an Indian. Goldilocks. — Hal Reid is Wallace Reid's father. Muriel Ostriche in "Miss Mischief" (Thanhouser). Gene Gauntier is still in Ireland. Josephine W. L. — Thanks for the picture of Yedah Bertram you sent. We haven't the address of H. H. Senorita J. — Have no cast for the Keystone. Augustus Phillips played in Spooner stock in Brooklyn. He was very popular here. Joseph S. — Tom Powers happened to be the Duke in "Cutey Playsx Detective" ( Yitagraph ) . His picture in April, 1912. We have had the same suggestion many times. Alice L. L. — Gwendoline Pates in "The Elusive Kiss" (Pathe). Blanche Sweet was the girl in "Three Friends" (Biograph). Larine S. — Wallace Reid was the lover in "The Foreign Spy" (American). We have July copies on hand. Anna M. B. — Jennie Nelson was Jane in "Jane's Waterloo" (Lubin). Harry Myers and Ethel Clayton in "A Hero Among Men" (Lubin). Evelyn Selbie was the wife in "Broncho Billy's Way" (Essanay). Gertrude Bambrick in "Near to Earth" (Biograph), and Yivian Pates in "The Burden-Bearer' (Lubin). L. G. — No. no, you have got the name entirely wrong. Isabelle Lamon in "Diamond Cut Diamond" (Lubin). Alberta B. — Elsie Greeson was the girl in "The Missing Bonds" (Kalem). No, it is not a strange thing that every player seems to want to face the camera squarely. They want to be seen. Can you blame them? Of course, the director ought not to allow it. When two people talk they should face each other. William L. — Marshall Neilan was with Biograph last. He left Rex. Write Warren Kerrigan at Hollywood, Cal., with Universal. By "multiple reel" is meant a photoplay that runs two or more reels, one reel being about .1,000 feet long, which is about as long as they can make one reel. Fancy, 72. — Augustus Phillips was J. Stevens in "In the Garden" (Edison). No. Jane Warrenton was the mother in "The Trifler" (Rex). You dont want Warren Kerrigan to wrinkle his forehead? Very well, I'll have it stopped. Edna H.— Peggy O'Neil and Robert Drouet in "The Penalty of Crime" (Lubin). Ruth Stonehouse was Sunshine. Harry Caslnnan was the priest. He is dead. Frank Newburg in "The Tenderfoot's Luck" (Kalem). L. G. T.— Carl Yon Schiller was the lover in "The Padre's Strategy" (Lubin). Carlyle Blackwell is now with American. Buttercup Percy. — Dolly Larkin the girl in "Rustic Hearts" and "Jim's Reward." Naomi, or St. Louis. — Well, that's Louise Beaudet. So you like her? James Yincent was the brother in "The Hidden Witness" (Kalem). Raymond Bloomer was the detective in "A Bolt from the Sky" (Kalem). Isabelle Ray in "The Saving Lie" (Pathe). Write again. Mrs. L. F. — Those reformers seem to need reforming themselves. They are wellmeaning but misguided zealots, and they remind one of their Puritanic forefathers. Thanks kindly for the information. Flower E. G. — William Brunton was Jack, and Helen Holmes was the girl in "Brought to Bay" (Kalem). That was a very, very old Biograph. Francis Carlyle the lead, Maidel Turner the girl, and Ben Hendricks the millionaire in "The Governor." Yiolette E. L. — Mary Ryan and Robyn Adair in "The Fatal Scar" (Lubin). Thanks for your nice letter. Raymond M.— William Humphrey and Leah Baird had the leads in "Hearts of the First Empire" (Yitagraph). Crane Wilbur in that Pathe. Herman. — That was not the original you saw, but an imitation. The genuine film was a masterpiece ; the copy a joke. Too bad they cant lock some of these copyists up. As soon as a reputable manufacturer announces a great masterpiece and advertises it extensively, some lunatic comes along and hastily gets up a film with the same name and imposes on the public. Peggy. 2. — Anna Nilsson was the wife in that Kalem. Gertrude Bambrick in that Biograph. Because you dont see Biograph plays is no sign they are not making many. They release three a week. Jean. — Mae Botti and Irving Cummings had the leads in "The Judge's Vindication." Mrs. J. P. W. — The time will soon be here when we will have printed programs of the different plays at the theaters, giving the casts. Crane Wilbur did not leave Pathe. I believe that pottery is known as the oldest art.
