Chicago Tire Sales Company 86 Vincennes and 39th St> Chicago Questions and Answers ( Concluded) J. v. B., MoBERLY, Mo. — How beautifully euphonious is that Moberly, Mo. Let's write a limerick about it, shall we? I have had to write to the West Coast for that information you want, so when you send me your limerick I'll send you the information. Is that a bargain? Jack. — Who is Agnes Ayres? What a question! To begin with, she is a very beautiful young lady, as you probably guessed, or you wouldn't be writing in to ask about her. She isn't married. .She began her screen career with Essanay in Chicago after graduating from high-school in the Windy City. Then she came to New York and appeared in the O. Henry pictures, for Vitagraph. For Marshall Neilan, in California, she did "Go and Get It"; for Realart, "The Furnace"; for Cecil de Mille, "Forbidden Fruit," in which she had the leading feminine role, and "Five Kisses" — the re-named picturization of "The Affairs of Anatole." And — oh, yes — Agnes lives with her mother, her brother, her sister-inlaw and her little niece, in a bungalow in Hollywood, California. And if there's anything else you want to know about her, I suggest that you write her yourself. D, M, K., Florida. — My dear chap, 1 can tell you almost anything statistical about almost any film star, but I simply cannot look up their family trees for your edification. I know whether or not they ha^■e brothers or sisters if said kin happen also to have won fame in the films, but otherwise — not. I hope I have made myself as obscure as possible. Marie Prevost was born in Canada, in 1898. She was educated in Denver, and her screen career has been entirely with Mack Sennett. She is not married. Thelma. — Charles Ray appears for First National now. He is married to a young lady who was formerly a Miss Grant. William Russell was born in 1886. Gloria Swanson is Mrs. Herbert K. Somborn. Her little daughter is named Gloria, too, also II. A. A., Eugene, Oregon. — Florence Dixon in "Too Fat to Fight." Jack McLean, not Douglas, played Freddie in the same production. William Boyd was Mr. Carpenter in "The City of Masks." P. P. S., Tacoma. — Betty Compson doesn't give her age, although she is so young that I should think she'd have no objections. However, that's none of our business, is it? None. She was born in Salt Lake and until "The Miracle Man" made her famous overnight, she was a violinist in vaudeville and a comedienne in Christie comedies. She has her own company, relea.sing through Paramount, now. Two Compson releases are "Ladies MusC Live" and "Prisoner of Love." She isn't married. Marjorie, N. Y. C. — I can see you have never been in japan from one glance at your Fuijiama stationery. Mary Pickford was born April 8, 1893; Viola Dana, in 1898; Corinne Griffith in 1899; Enid Bennett, July 15, 1895, and Blanche Sweet, June 8, 1896. Mary. — If you don't think for yourself, you can't be said to think at all. And that's flat. Bobby Vernon? Here's everything our files know about Bobby: that he was born in Chicago in 1897; that he is married; that he weighs 145 pounds and is five feet two and a half inches tall; and has light hair and blue eyes. And now I suppose you will admire Bobby more than ever. Kvcry ailVL-nisi-mi-iit m I'UOTOPLAY MAGAZINK is guarauteed.
