A Demi'T asse Star Of course, she has her own car. In fad , she has two. In confidence Baby Peggy uiU (ell you that she infinitely prefers the one at the left. Below, she is quite obviously posina for a pitcher. She’s never as tranquil as this unless there's a camera around. One of those spoiled screen children? Well, does she look like that? When she rolls her big black eyes she makes Pota Negri jealous — or so they say. Baby Peggy is filmdom’s real baby vamp. Montgomery's her last name, but she doesn’t need it. The icorld knows her as Baby Peggy — not one of your curled and frilled starlets, but a bobbed, banged, comical child of three, with more humor in one diminutive finger than grown-up luminaries have in ten manicured digits. She has made thirty-seven pictures; she’s been on the screen since she was a year and a half old. Right now she’s making a series of famous fairy tales, “ Hansel and Gretel,” “Jack and the Beanstalk,” “Little Red Riding Hood” — all the old favorites. Century stars her; but one of her best roles was in Marshall Neilan’s “Penrod," for which she was rented out. The first important event in her life occurred when she was three weeks old, when her father gave her a spanking for crying without sufficient cause. She still gets spanked; but she never cries unless the director tells her to. And she doesn't use glycerine, either.
