The Motion Picture Story Magazine (Aug 1913-Jan 1914)

142 TEE MOTION PICTURE STORY MAGAZINE Mrs. S. A. B. — Please do not write letters containing money for one department and inquiries for this department on one sheet of paper. You can get Harry Myers' picture at Lubinville. Cider, hot chocolate and buttermilk are my favorites. E, B. C, Cleveland. — No, it is not true. Carlyle Blackwell is still with Kalem. Josie Sadler and Mrs. Bryan in "When Glasses Are Not Glasses" (Vitagraph). I cant answer whether John Bunny tangoes or not; but page 124 looks as if he does something ! Algernon. — You are making a lot of noise with your letters here and elsewhere, but I fail to discover any real casus belli. It reminds me of a narrow-necked bottle — the less it contains, the more noise in pouring out its contents. Nickey. — That Selig was taken at Chicago, I believe. Dont know about "Good-forNothing Jack." You can address E. K. Lincoln at the Vitagraph studio. Call again. Harry, 17. — Irene Hunt was Dorothy in "Kentucky Foes" (Reliance). G. M. Anderson was chatted in June, 1913. Thanks for the promise; I shall look for it. Melva, Boston. — Mrs. Mary Maurice is not Mrs. Costello's mother. You are one of those economical ones who want us to print the Gallery only on one side of the paper so that you can frame the pictures. Which reminds me of the man who makes his wife wear last season's dresses so that he can smoke better cigars. If we printed on only one side it would cost twice as much to produce 16 pictures. Or do you want only 8? Why not buy two magazines? Witch Hazel. — Henry King • was the general in "A Mexican Tragedy" (Lubin)? So you want to thank all the members of the club for the pretty remembrances and letters you get. All right, the deed is did. Naomi, of St. Louis. — That was Henry King, but he does not resemble Earle Williams. England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales together are only about as large as our State of Missouri. Aren't you proud that you're from Missouri? Plunkett. — Yes, I missed you. Tom Carrigan in that Selig. Alas ! he is a married man. You know you should not ask about relationship. Marian Cooper was Myra in "The Moonshiner's Mistake" (Kalem). Ethel Phillips in "For Her Sister's Sake." Margaret. — After such threats, I shall answer, for I fear to refuse. Dolly Larkin was the girl in "A Romance of the Ozarks" (Lubin). Mamie T. — Dolly Larkin was the schoolmistress and Henry King the gambler in "His Last Crooked Deal" (Lubin). Grace Lewis in "With Club Fellows" (Biograph). Sorry you had an accident. Accidents will happen, etc. Annette. — Norma Talmadge was the girl, and Leo Delaney opposite her in "Under the Daisies." Dan Cupid. — Richard De Grasse was the leading man in "The Broken Idol." Jack Pickf ord is Mary Pickf ord's brother. Who is "Monty" ? Yes ; Romaine Fielding. John S., Lexington. — Fred Church was Kelly in "Broncho Billy's Bible." Please dont ask nationalities. Bible history has not yet been done in its entirety and in sequence, but it probably will be. Kalem has done the life of Jesus, and it is superb. Bernadine H. — Ethel Davis was the actress in "The Missionary and the Actress." WINNERS IN THE PUZZLE CONTEST It required many weeks for the judges to decide who had won the Puzzle Contest that appeared on page 116 of the October issue, not only because there were over 12,000 manuscripts to examine, but because of the unusual excellence of about one hundred of them. Some were enclosed in hand-painted covers, some in leather, some were printed by a printing press, some were set to music, some were elaborately illustrated, and one was carved in a plaster monument, so how were human judges to agree on a standard of excellence amid such diversity of talent? But they finally did ; and they found that instead of three we must award ten prizes, which have been forwarded to the winners. We want to thank all those who helped to make this contest so interesting, and to assure them that their excellent work will be placed on exhibition for the edification and delight of all who come this way. The prize-winners are as follows : 1st prize, R. Coster, 316 WT. 140th St., New York City ; 2d prize, Mrs. G. E. Blackford, 306 Cherry St., JamesvLlle, Wis. ; 3d prize, Mrs. J. F.
