D., CmcACO.— I suppose some children wonder what their father's boyhood must have been because the parent always knows just what question to ask when he wants to know what son has been doing. Mary Miles Minter, Realart studios, Hollywood, California. Miss Minlcr lives with her mother and her sister, Margaret Shelby. M. N., Catskill, New York. — So you think Wanda Hawlcy and Winifred Westover look alike. Beyond the fact that both are blondes, I detect no resemblance. Wanda's married; Winifred isn't. Pearl While wears a wig in her pictures. Her own hair is re — I mean auburn. R. C, New Hampshire. — You ask me, confidentially, what kind of a girl I'm going to marry. I don't usually confide in people — but I'll make an exception of you. It's none of your business — and if I didn't like you I wouldn't tell you that much about her. Certainly, send your letter of reproach to our Willum. Maybe he'll reconsider his retirement. Who knows? Proud Father, WiLirrNGioN. — So your wife is planning a motion picture career for your new baby. Well, be careful to select a nice name for him — so many babies will be named after him when he's, a star. Best wishes to all three of you. C. B., St. Louis. — Don't ca'l me the human ouija board. My goodness — I answer something more than "Yes" or "No," don't I? Jack Singleton played Jordan in William S. Hart's picture, "The Toll Gate.'' Douglas Fairbanks was born in Denver in 1883; he was on the legitimate before he went into pictures. He weighs i66 pounds, stands five-feet-eleven in the rare occasions when he is on terra firma, has black hair and blue eyes. Mrs. Doug was born in Toronto, Canada ; she was a child actress on the stage and was in David Belasco's production of "A Good Little Devil'' which she later did for the screen, for Famous Players. Jack, her brother, was born in Toronto in 1895. That's all for you. Sweet Eighteen', Harrisburg. — So you would like to meet mc but as you never come to New York, fear it is impossible, .^nd I'm sure I couldn't get away to come to Harrisburg — so there you are — and here I am.

Wanda's husband is J. Burton Hawlcy. She's twenty-three. Shirley Mason is five feet high and weighs ninety-five pounds — nice little armful for a lucky leading-man. Shirley's real-life opposite is Bernard Durning. Your others are answered elsewhere. Frances, N. V. — Many men marry their stenographers thinking they will take notes after they arc married. They do — hanknotes. Lucy Cotton was F.ucene O'Brien's leading woman in "The Broken Melody." Mahlon Hamilton was "Daddy Long Legs' in Mary Pickford's picture. So you arc taking tennis lessons. Love all I Mary D., Los .Angeles. — You sing popular songs? But are they popular with your neighbors? Now, I don't mean to malign your voice; I do some singing myself; but I never never never sing popular songs. I couldn't, you see. Bert Lytell will probably appear on the stage in a new play while he is in New York. His picture, "The Price of Redemption," is released in September. He is making "The Misleading Lady" now. You'll get your Lytell story ; just be patient, Mary. S. F. F., Springfield. — Harrison Ford has been married.

Robertson-Cole releases the Cody pictures. Elizabeth, Seattle. — Viola Dana weighs ninetj--six pounds and is four feet eleven inches tall. Your letter was as brief as Viola. V\'hy not write again and ask more questions ? L.ivPERTA F. — I have found that trying to get out of work is the hardest work of all. Besides, it doesn't pay. Creighton Hale in "The Idol Dancer. ' Hale also plays in Griffith's "Way Down East.' No — "Way Down East ' isn't the same as "39 East," although both have been popular stage successes. The Griffith play is from Lottie Blair Parker's old record-breaker, while Constance Binncy is making the picturization of Rachel Crothers' "30 East"' for Realart. The fiction version of the latter app)ears in this issue of Photopi-ay M.agazine. E. E., Dubuque. — There are some people so ignorant as to believe that Rex Beach is a summer resort. Beach isn't blind — whatever gave you that idea ? He is president of the Eminent .Authors Film Corporation, which releases through Goldwyn. Nancy, from Philadelphia. — I hate to disappoint you like this, Nancy. But really, I have not got red hair. Neither are my eyes blue. I am awfully sorry.

Norma Talmadge and .Anita Stewart have not dyed their hair. They wore blonde wigs. Norma and Anita and I do not believe in dyeing our hair. Salliz Snodgrass, Pas.adena. — Charles Dickens should have known you. I really don't know that Harold Miller is the handsomest man I have ever seen in my life.

D., Kankakee. — I read your article, my dear, and particularly enjoyed your quotations from Shakespeare. Priscilla Dean h.is appeared in "The Exquisite Thief," "Kiss or Kill," "Wicked Darling," "Wild Cat of Paris,'' "Brazen Beauty," and "Pretty Smooth." Priscilla is our most adorable crook.
