Photoplay (Jan - Jun 1922)

Photoplay magazine — ADVEirnsixc, section 9i Plays and Players (Continued jrom page 90) ALICE JOYCE is the mother of another little daughter: born in October at the home of the James Regan Junior's. The beautiful Yitagraph star retired from the screen six months ago. You remember her marriage to the son of the former owner of the Knickerbocker Hotel in Manhattan was one of the most charming of all film romances. Miss Joyce has a little girl named Mary Joyce Moore, whose father is Tom Moore the film star. Now the tiny Joyce Regan has come to keep her company. AT last — the Legend of Sleepy Hollowis to be immortalized. Allan Dwan, one of the screen's greatest directors, is to film it. He is going to take a company to Tarrytown and put into pictures Ichabod Crane and the others Washington Irving wrote about. America is filled with charming folk lore. It is a great field for the more artistic producers. WHEN Mildred Harris was suddenly released from the cast of "Miss Lulu Bett," film circles wondered just what she had done — or what she was going to do. Guesses were wild and plentiful, but Mildred said nothing — only smiled her sad, sweet smile. And now we know why she was smiling, although we cannot understand the sadness of it. For Famous Players-La sky have announced that she will play opposite Thomas Meighan in his next picture. HERE is something that should be not only interesting, but very lovely. Florence Walton, the dancer, has promised to pose — in a series of dances — before the slow motion camera. The machine will register every movement in exact time, and every detail of' her consummate grace will be shown minutely. SOMETHING new landed in this countr a few days ago — that same being a vest pocket movie camera. It arrived on the Cunarder Bulgaria in the possession of one C. D. Wellington, who hails from Australia. He bought the little thing in Paris where he paid about one hundred dollars for it. Its capacity is twenty-five feet of regular film, and it operates by a spring instead of the time honored crank method. We imagine that this camera will be much in vogue with the society folk who prefer a self-starting method. MME. OLGA PETROYA has successfully opened in a new stage production, "The White Peacock." The program states it was written by a Polish woman who has lived in America ten years. We more than suspect that Mme. Petrova is the author. The critic, of the Indianapolis News, among other nice things says : "In the first place, the dialogue is unusual in that it is natural speech, and not theatrical. This is a Russian trait. Tolstoy, the greatest of all Russian writers, was always straining to have his characters say what would obviously be said under the circumstances. He hated artificiality. So it i here. There is scarcely a speech in the whole play that seems forced. The leading role is, of course, emotional, but the star does not "act all over the place," as the saying is. For the most part her acting is restrained. She has a problem to contend with and she faces it as any intelligent woman would." (Continued on page 02) Ask Us Now This test will delight you Again we offer, and urge you to accept, this new teeth-cleaning method. Millions now employ it. Leading dentists, nearly all the world over, are urging its adoption. The results are visible in whiter teeth wherever you look today. Bring them to your people. The war on film Dental science has declared a war on film. That is the cause of most tooth troubles. And brushing methods of the past did not effectively combat it. Film is that viscous coat you feel. It clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays. Then night and day it may do serious damage. Film absorbs stains, making the teeth look dingy. It is the basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Very few people have escaped the troubles caused by film. Two film combatants Now two combatants have been found. Many careful tests have proved their efficiency. A new-day tooth paste has been created, and these two film combatants are embodied in it. The paste is called Pepsodent. Now every time you brush your teeth you can fight those film-coats in these effective ways. Pgpsaclgivt REG U S k^BB^B^^^K^^a^M^^MMaB The New-Day Dentifrice The scientific film combatant, which brings five desired effects. Approved by modern authorities and now advised by leading dentists everywhere. All druggists supply the large tubes. Also starch and acids Another tooth enemy is starch. It also clings to teeth, and in fermenting it forms acids. To fight it Nature puts a starch digestant in saliva. She also puts alkalis there to neutralize the acids. Pepsodent multiplies the salivary flow. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva. It multiplies the alkalis. Thus these teeth protecting forces, twice a day, are much increased. They must be done These things must be done. Teeth with film or starch or acids are not white or clean or safe. You know yourself, no doubt, that old tooth-brushing methods are inadequate.
