Love for Mary Colorado Springs, Colo. Would thai some fairy would fashion of sunbeams, and elfin laughter, a fitting tribute to the Queen of the Kingdom of Childhood . . . . Mary Pickford. Was there ever a picture that portrayed so delightfully all the joys and tinsorrows of childhood, playing a melody on our heart strings as charming as the gay little tunc, from which it took its name, as "Little Annie Rooney"? Yet it held the interest of the audiregardless of age, to the last reel. Many thanks to all who had a hand in it's making, and my sincerest congratulations to Miss Pickford for her realistic portrayal of the title r.'le. She is the Peter Pan of the screen. May the years touch her lightly so that she may many times again answer the cry of our hearts. . . . "Make me a child again just for tonight." Makv Bryan. He Watched Him When Cincinnati. Ohio. To one who has sat back and smiled knowingly at in actor of as yet unrealized talents, to have shunned professing admiration for acknowledged stars of the day in preference to one whose success I took delight in visualizing, I now join in the praise of the multitude to a nationally known star, hero of "The Count of Monte Cristo" and "St. Elmo"' as well as "The Merry Widow" and "The Big Parade." To John Gilbert I present my meagre bouquet composed of best wishes for the future and sincere hopes that each succeeding picture will be better than the last and a master-piece in itself. Louise G. Stineman. Rudy Punctures Another Heart Prince George, Ya. T am young again — not in age but in heart for I have been thrilled over the love of a man. He is Rudolph Yalentino. once the screen ideal of happy school girls but never of grouchy old maid-. Last night I was fortunate enough to witness that fas inating picture 'The Black Eagle" and in it the actor at whom I once criticized, rebuked and sneered. Xow it is I who have fallen a worshiper before this hero — calm, yet passionate. I am convinced that he deserves now all the praise he received in the past. "The Black Eagle" was truly a magnificent picture and the girl. Yilma Banky, has eyes that can melt a heart of steel. I hope she will meet the highest peaks of success, and when hitching her wagon to a star, let it be Yalentino, the god of love. Elsie Brown.
