L., Montreal. — There was one or perhaps two film companies in Canada, but we do not know of any in operation at the present time. The one in your city burned down and was not rebuilt. Scads of war pictures of the Canadian troops and their training are being taken for the news films, however. H., New Bedford, Mass. — Cleo Ridgely, the girl in "The Love Mask," is the wife of J. M. Ridgely. They used to play in the east, but have been in California for about a year and a half, since their trans-continental horseback ride, which perhaps you remember. Mr. Ridgely is not playing in films at present. J. P. F., Canton, O.— The World film, "By Whose Hand." ends with the mystery unsolved. It was originally entitled, "Who Killed Simon Baird?" and at the close the old judge still ponders the question, unsolved by the jury's verdict. L. W., Beverly, Mass. — Harry Morey began his motion picture career in 1908, joined Yitagraph in 1909 and has been with that organization ever since. He was torn in Michigan and completed his education at Ann Arbor and played for a number of seasons on the legitimate stage prior to beginning his film career. He is well known as a heavy in Yitagraph plays and has been seen in "A Million Bid," with Anita Stewart,"My Official Wife," with Clara Kimball Young, and more recently "The Price of Folly," with Edith Storev.

Tex. — Evelyn Nesbit Thaw and Jack Clifford played the leads in a Lubin film called "Threads of Destiny" some time ago. The then Mrs. Thaw, who is now Mrs. Clifford. played the role of a Russian girl who found herself too much beloved by distasteful police officials and sought refuge with her lover in America. J. S., Atlantic City, N. J., and E. M., Seattle.— Dorothy Davenport is the daughter of Alice Davenport who plays in Keystone comedies ; the latter was in "The Perils of the Park." with Harry Gribbon and in "Wife and Auto Trouble," you perhaps remember. In each case it was William, but in "The Island of Surprise" it was Courtenay, while in "Out of the Drifts" the last name was Courtleigh, and "Jr." at that. H. M., Baltimore. — The title of the first of the "Who's Guilty?" series was "Puppets of Fate." and in it. as in all of the succeeding chapters. Tom Moore and Anna Q. Xilsson played the leads. The wealthy widow was Octavia Handworth. The names of the characters change with each episode. E. S.. Portland. Me. — Y'es, Dorothy Dalton, who played the weak and erring wife in "The Disciple," with William Hart, is also seen as Ann of Austria in "The Three Musketeers," another Ince film in which Orrin Johnson takes the herolead as D'Artagnan.

Cody comes from Waterville, Me., where he was born in 1SSS, while Miss Dalton was born in Chicago. (Continued on page 169) Every advertisement in r-HOTOrLAY MAGAZINE Is guaranteed.
