Photoplay Magazine — Advertising Section III Questions and Answers (Continued from page ioj) The Mystic Rose. — For awhile there I was afraid I wasn't going to hear from you this month. And then another letter in your facile, gracile, — in fact, inimitable style appeared on our desk, and we went to work, with all our old-time vim and vigor, to say nothing of vitality. And not only your letter! Rose, the snap-shots are quite, quite charming. Especially the pose with rose, a la a Spanish senorita. You are Spanish, aren't you? And you look rather remarkably like Pearl White. Many, many thanks. After the pictures, I agree with everything you say. Nazimova was born in Crimea, Russia, about thirty years ago; she was educated in Geneva and St. Petersburg Convent, Odessa; she played in stock in Russia; first appeared in New York in 1005, presenting "A Doll's House," and later on in vaudeville, her great success, "War Brides," which she later put into pictures. Her new Metro film plays are "Eye for Eye" and " 'Ception Shoals." Married to Charles Bryant. Your other questions involve research; I will answer them later on. Again, thanks. Senhorita-ningnem, Santos. — I'm afraid that is mispelled. You say it means "Miss Nobody." Yours was a charming letter. Douglas Fairbanks has brown eyes. George Walsh is about six feet tall ; he was born in i8q2. May we request that the so-charming Senhorita write again? Your English— she is delightful. Y. W. M. S., Brooklyn.— "A" wins. Mary Pickford has no children. It is lovely of your club to make me honorary vice-president with the additional honor of Complimentary Advisor; but if that "big picture of the Answer Man, signed and framed, for our club-room," is a condition of acceptance, I'll have to refuse, I'm afraid. Tell you what to do: Cut out the portrait at the head of this department; I assure you it is an excellent likeness. Olive, Texas. — Dorothy Dalton has dark brown hair and gray eyes. She has ^tely appeared in "Vive la France." Eugene Pallette is married. You might write him care Lasky, where he was emDloyed before joining the aviation corps. Please don't deliberate. Thanks for the nice things you say about Photoplay. K. S., Rhinebeck. N. Y. — You'll be seeing Theda's "Salome" soon. I believe it is a sort of mixture of the Biblical version and the Oscar Wilde poem. We won't argue — as you say you are "writing in a pretty'new hat," and a harsh word would ruin it. Rubie White, Buffalo. — We're real mad. How many times have we told you-all that questions appertainin' to "breaking-into-themovies" is strictly agin' the rules? Pearl White is now ensaged on a new serial, called "The Lightning Raider." This title may be changed, however. Write again. H. A. S., Seattle. — Thanks for your appreciation. You say, "In these days of Thrift, can you tell me what good it does for Fox to spend thousands so that Theda Bara may portray degenerate women?" No. We need wholesome pictures now more than at any other time. "Shackled" was in six parts. Your husband was wrong. Write again. C. T., Erie, Pa. — Irene Castle is going to France. Too bad she didn't answer your letter, but she is very busy, you know. She was born in 1893. Can't help you, I'm afraid. F. E. W., Mobile.— The very best of mothers will insist upon prattling about their babies and telling their views on infant education. She's still with Universal. Carl Laemmle is the president of that concern. King Baggot and Marguerite Snow were featured in "The Eagle's Eye." Eddie Polo, Universal. H. L., Maduro, Panama. — In youth we believe we know everything. In middle-age we aren't so sure. When we're old we are positively aghast at the thought of how little we do know. Carmel My.rs and Juanita Hansen may be adressed at Universal City, Cal. Doug's new ones are "He Comes Up Smiling" and "Arizona." B. R. C, Gillette, Wyo. — There is something pathetic in the number of actors who start their careers with a perfect profile and end with the crepe hair cf the character man. Ruth Roland is appearing in a Pathe serial, "Hands Up!" Constance Talmadge, Morosco studios, L. A. William Desmond, Triangle, Culver City; he has dark hair and blue eyes. Mary Pickford, I think. W. I. B., Barron Field, Fort Worth, Texas. — Mollie King is back on the stage; write to her care Hotel Ansonia, New York.

S., Indiana, this issue. Pauline Curley with Douglas Fairbanks in "Bound in Morocco." B. A. C, Chicago. — There is a story about Gretchen Hartman in this issue of Photoplay. What do we read? Send us a stamped addressed envelope and we'll write you a personal letter. R. McC, St. Louis. — Earle Rodney with Enid Bennett. You want pictures of Enid, also Jack Holt.

Robert Gordon has gone to war; a letter to him care Lasky in Hollywood may be forwarded. Bessie Barriscale, Paralta; Louise Huff, World, Fort Lee. Miss Huff is married to Zdgar Jones and has a small daughter, Mary Louise Jones. Harold Lloyd is not married. Don't know Miss Dalton's favorite flower. Buddy, Fairlee, Vt. — So you were at Camp when you wrote to me? You say, "Do you have to be beautiful to be an actress? I'd love to be." Beautiful? Send along the picture of yourself in your bloomers and middy, Buddy. No more "Bab" stories for the present. Ethel Grey Terry with Earle Williams in "Arsene Lupin."
