Photoplay (Jan 1921)

122 Ruth Roland Admirer. — Your admiree — ahem ! — isn't a widow. She was married, but secured a divorce. She's her own business and personal manager and has her own serial company. Don't know the extent of her family — that is, her brothers and sisters. You'll have to write and ask her. Marie. — If I ever want another red — or titian-haired — steno., I'll remember you. But one at a time is all I really need. Thanks so much. H. F. Newport, Oregon. — Louise Glaum, our leopard lady, may be reached care J. Parker Reid Productions, Culver City, Cal. Louise is now leoparding in "The Leopard Woman," rumored to be the adaptation of a story by Stewart Edward White, even though the author may not have recognized his brain-child in film clothing. Well A. P., Jonesboro, Ark. — Fortune seldom smiles on me — it's more often a laugh. Florence Vidor, 6642 Sunset Blvd. — the Vidor studio in Hollywood. Have no record of a Hugh Elder. Here's the cast of "A Sporting Chance" : Carey Brent— Questions and Answers (Concluded) Ethel Clayton; Paul Sayre — Jack Holt; Peter Brent — Herbert Standing; Pamela Brent — Anna Q. Nilsson; Ralph Seward — Howard Davies. Ruth, Windsor, Vt. — Sorry to disappoint you, Ruth, but it couldn't have been Bebe Daniels you saw on the street in New York in October. She's been in California working hard. Her latest is "In the Bishop's Carriage" for Realart. Bebe isn't married; neither is Harold Lloyd. Bessie H., New York. — Yep — we fought for the freedom of Cuba in '98 and now we have to go there to get it. You know what I mean by it. Louiszita Valentine with Harry Morey in "The Sea Rider." E. M., Lynbrook, L. I. — George B. Seitz? That young wizard who writes, directs and stars in his own Pathe serials, was born in Massachusetts in 1883. He's been in pictures since 1912. He is married and his home address is 1990 Park Avenue, New York. He appeared with Pearl White in "The Fatal Ring" and "The Black Secret" — playing, in the latter serial, the German spy in the eleventh episode. He also directed. His new Pathe chapter drama is Velvet Fingers" and he is now making ''Rogues and Romance," a feature for which he went to Spain. That's all I know about him — isn't that enough? Blanche, New Zealand. — You think I am very nice and fatherly. Am I as old as all that? Jane and Katherine Lee are vaudeville headliners now; write to them care Palace Theater, N. Y. C. Madge Evans' home address is 50 Cathedral Parkway, New York. Billie Burke, Paramount. H. L. P., Missoula. — You say I am truthful, sensible and wise. If I were really all these things I wouldn't be flattered when you attribute them to me. You want to know how the stars can flit from coast to coast without people seeing them. Why, unless you meet every train and scan every passenger I don't know how you could manage it. Most of them travel strictly incognito; they might be mobbed if they didn't. Besides, are you sure you would recognize your favorites in their off-screen guises? I'm not. Even the Ocean Is Dry! THE real thrills of the life on the ocean wave mean little or nothing to these gentlemen. The plot of the picture in which their sturdy ship figures is very yo-ho-ho — there is a storm, a wreck, and all the rest of it. But they don't have to be good sailors to weather it for the schooner strikes the rocks on the floor of Goldwyns studio, where it was built just like any old set. Pete Props and his crew provide the mal de mcr by rocking the boat behind the scenes. And the rain machine if turned on to complete the illusion.
