Interested Photoplay Reader, Toronto, Canada. — You're right when you say that you are just one of countless hundreds of John Boles admirers. His latest releases are "Song of the West" and "Captain of the Guard." The latter is reviewed in this issue of Photoplay. Don't miss this, girls. Jawn's next will be "Moonlight Madness." Hey! Hey! Elizabeth Myers, Gettysburg, Pa. — Here's another speech for Gettysburg and all points North, South, East and West. In a recent issue of Photoplay, Cal York stated that John Bond, German voice doubler, was heard as John Boles in "Rio Rita." This statement has brought many letters of inquiry to my desk. Now, if you children will all get out your books and read aloud the paragraph in question, you will note that Mr. Bond spoke and sang only in Ike German version of "Rio Rita." Evidently Mr. Boles no speaka da Deutsch. Vera Berg, Madison, Wis. — If, at first, you don't succeed — luck is with you this time, m' dear. Ruth Chatterton celebrates her birthday on December 24. Oh boy, what a Xmas present she was! She has brown hair and grey eyes and has been married to Ralph Forbes since 1924. Her latest release is "Sarah and Son."

John Harron played opposite Betty Compson in "Street Girl." Greta Nissen and Vilma Banky are not related. Greta hails from Norway and Vilma from Sweden. Quaker Girl, Philadelphia, Pa. — The beautiful Jeanette MacDonald is a product of your home town, where she was born June 18, 1907. She is 5 feet, 5, weighs 122, and has red-gold hair and greenish-blue eyes. You will soon see her in "Let's Go Native" with James Hall and Jack Oakie. S. and K., San Bruno, Calif. — I was quite right when I said that Gary Cooper was the young aviator who was killed in "Wings." Gary played the part of Cadet White who was killed in an airplane collision in the first part of the picture. Dick Arlen died toward the end of the picture when he was brought down in a German plane he had stolen from the German airdrome. Now, does that refresh your memory? Gary Cooper had the lead in "The Legion of the Condemned." Mary Oatman, Overland, Mo. — You have made a grave error by getting your heroes mixed up a little. James Murray was the hero in "The Crowd." You did not see Ralph Forbes in that picture. Giuseppe Ajello, Palermo, Italy. — The theme song of "The Divine Lady" bore the inspired title "Lady Divine." Bet it took a lot of studio conferences to think that one up! E. Nied, Hoboken, N. J. — During my last visit to Hoboken a line from Wordsworth about something or other came to me, but after it came I didn't know what to do with it and life has never been the same since.

Basil Rathbone played the part of Philo Vance in "The Bishop Murder Case," but Bill Powell will be Philo again in "The Benson Murder Case." M. Constantino, Woodhaven, L. I. — Take my hand and let's see if we can't get together on this: Dorothy Gulliver, an alumna of "The Collegians," played the other feminine role in "Night Parade." Anita Page was born Aug. 4, 1910. Helen Kane first started to boopboopa-doop on Aug. 4, too. Beatrice George, East Pittsburgh, Penna. — ■ No movie scrapbook is complete without the information that J. Harold Murray was born in South Berwick, Maine, Feb. 17, 1891. And that, furthermore, he has light hair and blue eyes, is 5 feet, 11 inches tall and not only does he look as though he'd weigh 160 pounds but he does weigh 160 pounds. R. B. C, Elm City, N. C— Paul Muni, who is going Lon Chaney one better by accumulating the title of "The Man with a Thousand Voices," was born in Vienna, Austria, Sept. 22, 1897. Don Abbott, Rockingham, N. H.— Having seen Philo Vance I deduce that by the "babyface" in "Gold Diggers of Broadway" you mean Helen Foster.

A., Woolstock, Iowa. — I've often mused, in my quiet way, upon the fact that children in comic-strips never grow up. But they do in the movies, for little Mary Kornman, who used to be the blonde heart-interest in "Our Gang," is now a dignified, but still blonde, ingenue of sixteen. A young man by the name of Clifford Stark is reported engaged to Anita Page, who is so strictly chaperoned by her parents that the engagement, if true, will probably take in the entire Pomares family. Hot and Tot, Charleston, W. Va. — I saved my dimes for years to be able to listen to Lawrence Tibbett sing in the Metropolitan Opera Company, but Catherine Dale Owen got paid while Tibbett warbled to her in "The Rogue Song," her latest release. Ann Pennington was first noticed to have dimpled knees Dec. 23, 1896. The late Jeanne Eagels played opposite John Gilbert in a picture called " Man, Woman and Sin." H. G. M., Pocomoke City, Md— The little Byron girl — who is called "Peanuts" because her name is Marion — is 19 years old; she was the smallest of the Three Musketeers in "Broadway Babies," and is in "The Forward Pass" too. Betty Compson sang a piece called "Let Me Have My Dreams'' in "On With the Show." And Ethel Waters, the dark-skinned blues singer, warbled "Am I Blue?" in that one, too.
