Photoplay (Jan 1921)

AeADEfp¥(6^^OP&NNP-^0T^yfi€I^o Section QuestAM'iifl. An&6fcS\!CES I HOLLVVV^y^ CALIFORNIA 121 G. A., Danville. — I asked a young lady the other day if she had ever read the "Meditations of Marcus Aurelius" and she answered yes, that she'd read it when it first came out. Harland Tucker is married to Marie Walcamp and plays with her in Universal serials. Frances Nelson has not been heard from for a long time. When will "Peg o' My Heart" be released? Better ask Mr. Lasky. There has been considerable litigation over the rights to the Hartley Manners play and the celluloid Peg has never seen the screen. We hope she is not doomed to oblivion, however. Wanda Hawley plays Peg. Marion Davies isn't married. Is that all you want to know? Kitty.— Some breach-of-promise ladies aren't satisfied with punishing the gentleman to the extent of several thousand dollars. They must marry him, too. So David Powell seems so frank and friendly. Hope David's frankness and friendliness will be just as evident in his English films — he's playing in London now, you know. Went across to join Paramount's British stock company. K. K., Canada. — You have a friend who has a cousin who has a sister who plays for Selznick. Her name is Irene Dushang. So far Irene hasn't startled the cinema world but you never can tell; she may surprise us yet. Arnold, Peoria. — It must be uncomfortable to be placed on a pedestal and worshipped from afar. I'm sure I'd topple over at the first tremor. However, no one seems to be worshipping me just at present. Your idol is Constance Talmadge. So say many. Will Rogers has appeared in "Laughin' Bill Hyde," "Almost a Husband," "Jubilo," "The Strange Boarder," "Cupid the Cowpuncher," "Jes' Call Me Jim," and "The Guile of Women." I liked "Jubilo" best. Ricardo G., Manila. — Mary Garden decided that the films were not so suited to her as the opera, evidently — at any rate she hasn't made any more pictures, confining her talents entirely to the stage. Haven't the names of the maids in "Thais;" sorry. M. M. M., Hazen, Ark. — Oh yes — I have high principles. So high, in fact, that I can't always reach 'em. Howard Davies? He played the victim in "One Hour Before Dawn" for Hampton-Pathe. He's five feet ten and one-half inches tall ; weighs 190 pounds; has brown hair and dark eyes. He's appeared in "A White Man's Chance," "A Sporting Chance," "It's a Bear" and "Boston Blackie's Little Pal." S. J. T., Minneapolis. — Dorothy Devore, a Christie comedienne, was only loaned to the Charles Ray company for one picture ; she's back in comedy now. She played Mary Jane Jenkins in "Forty Five Minutes from Broadway." Not married. Miss T. — How do I know whether or not you'd make a good movie star? Telephonic photography has not been actually perfected as yet and until it is I'll have to confine my divinations to weights and ages. From your writing I should say you'd make a fine slapstick comedienne. Bessie Barriscale is blonde. Mildred Harris Chaplin has light hair. Clara Kimball Young stands five feet six inches in her stock — I mean heelless slippers. June Caprice is just twenty. Gladys Leslie, one year older. Real Irish. — Never fight over a woman. It only flatters her and you might get hurt. Chester Barnett was last seen in "The Girl of the Sea." His address is 555 West 171 Street, New York City. June Caprice is now playing opposite George B. Seitz in his new serial. Address her care Pathe, New York. E. H., Chicago. — The film bachelors seem to be deserting me one by one. After Dick Barthelmess became a benedict I began to feel lonesome. Oh well, Eugene O'Brien is still with me. Here's cast of "Poppy :" Sir Evelyn Carson, Eugene O'Brien; Luce Abinger, Frederick Perry; Dr. Bramhan, Jack Meredith ; Mrs. Capron, Dorothy Rogers; Sophia Cornell, Edna Whistler; Mrs. Kennedy, Marie Haines; Poppy, Norma Talmadge. Alda C. de R., Hong Kong, China. — A fine letter, and much appreciated by me. You say you saw Elsie Ferguson while she was in China and liked her. She will return to America to make more photoplays. She is married to an American banker, Thomas B. Clarke. Mary Pickford is twenty-seven; she is coming your way soon. Anita Stewart's birthday is February 17th; Norma Talmadge's, May 2 ; Douglas Fairbanks', May 23 ; and Ethel Clayton's, November 8th. Vincent Coleman, Green Room Club, N. Y. C. Fannie Ward lives in London. I'll certainly look you up if I ever come to Hong Kong — but I don't travel much so I'm afraid we'll have to be friends by long-distance. Write again. P. D., Middletown. — You were friendly enough — quite. It's a relief sometimes to read a sane salutation instead of the everlasting "Old Rips" and "Old Dears." Juanita Hansen has completed a serial called "The Phantom Foe" and she is now working in a new one called, "Roaring Oaks." Douglas Fairbanks is thirty-seven. Marguerite Clark is in her early thirties. Mary Pickford's favorite pastime? Making motion pictures. Hazel, Oklahoma. — Don't insult me. Call me, if you like, any endearing appellation that pops into your pretty head. Accuse me of violent tastes in ties and literature. But don't, don't, don't say I am a poet. I can stand anything but that. Eddie Polo is married and has a seventeenyear-old daughter, Malveena Polo, who appears in Eric von Stroheim's new picture, "Foolish Wives." Address the Polos, father and daughter, at Universal City. Enid Bennett weighs 102. Her husband is Fred Niblo. William Duncan was born in Dundee, Scotland. Guess who's the favorite film serial star in Dundee. A Constant Reader. — You may read our Magazine every month, but I doubt if you are constant. Not if you profess undying preference for Ward Crane in one breath, and say your favorite is Norman Kerry the next. Oh, you women. Crane opposite Anita Stewart in "The Yellow Typhoon." Mr. Kerry played with Constance Talmadge in "Up the Road with Sallie." M. P. P., Hot Springs.— The grand looking man with Shirley Mason in "Love's Harvest?" Well, I suppose you mean Raymond McKee. But he's such a regular guy I hate to hear him called those names. He might write to you if you can suppress your enthusiasm and write a sensible letter. What made Dick Barthelmess marry Mary Hay? Love. Keep Your Skin Soft and Smooth L WITH CUTICURA When exposed to wintry weather Cuticura Soap and Ointment will keep your face and hands free from chapping, redness, roughness and irritation.
