MARY PICKFORD will join the decade-long nrocession of "Little Lord Fauntleroys." /^wfr^v Pickford secured screen rights to the franco Hodson Burnett story which was sudi a^it on the stage; and Mary will maKS^ajiJiarly production of it. Curls again. And a costume, perhaps, reminiscent of "Mistress Nell" of her Famous Players days. FRANCES MARION secured her release from the Hearst film organization a few weeks after she signed her contract, and returned immediately to her first love, Mary Pickford. It is not said whether it was because Miss Marion didn't like New York, or wanted to go back to California, or because she had just married Fred Thompson, former champion athlete and chapIain of the 143rd Field Artillery of which Miss Pickford was godmother, it is not for us to say. But as Miss Pickford has done about her finest work in Miss Marion's scenarios and Miss Marion's best scenarios have been for Miss Pickford, it is rejoicefu) news. Edna Mae Cooper was a November bride. You have seen her many times in Lasky plays. WEDDINGS: Martin-Tree. Joe Martin, of Universal City, has a new domestic co-star; her name is Topsy-Tree. The Laemmle favorite will star in a new series of comedies, and his bride will enact the leading role. (Note: Joe is Universal's chief chimpanzee.) ALL good comedies end in weddings and all good weddings end in comedies— as of course, distinguished from tragedies. So the association of ideas must be credited for the fact that on the Christie Comedy lot in November, four members of the organization were married, two of them to each other. James Clemmons, stage superintendent started it, Pat Dowling. press agent, followed, and then Miss Inez jane, chief auditor, married Dallas McClish, technical director. i WALLACE REID, JUNIOR, made his film bow in the Photoplay Magazine Screen Supplement and he was so good that his father gave him a part in his new picture, "The Bear Trap." He will play Toodles. He is only two and a half, but his line of dramatic forbears is indeed imposing; his great-aunt was Fanny Davenport; his grandfather is Hal Reid. But he still insists his name is just "Bill." ELLIOTT DEXTER, who was about to be starred by Famous-Lasky several months ago, when he fell ill, is now about again, and will begin work this month on his first star production. The story for the picture has not yet been definitely decided, but it is expected that William DeMille will direct. Meanwhile Mr. Dexter is convalescent at his home at Ocean Park. MIRIAM MacDONALD, sister of Katherine MacDonald and Mary MacLaren, was married early in November to Capt. Clyde Balsley, an aviator who distinguished himself as a member of the Lafayette Escadrille, winning twenty-three citations including the Croix de Guerre. They have gone to Coronado for the winter and will later go to Paris to live, which finishes Miss MacDonald's picture career. She appeared in several productions with her sisters. WE should worry about the coal strike," says Will Rogers. "There's no room in our cellar for coal anyhow." JAMES W. HORNE, directing Warner Gland's new serial, "The Third Eye," made one hundred and ten scenes in one day at the Astra Studio, Glendale. Is this a record day's work? WITH the expiration of his contract with Thomas H. Ince, Charles Ray will begin producing for himself. He expects to begin work on his first production about the middle of January, and has engaged Rob Wagner as his scenario chief. Wagner's ! principal claim to a niche in the Hall of Fame previously has been his articles in The Saturday Evening Post poking fun at moving picture production activities. IT was a foggy morning (oh, very unusual weather for California) and Scott Sidney, one of Al Christie's comedy directors, with a squint at the sky, observed to Fay Tincher: "Looks a little like rain so we'll Lake it easy today. We'll get the hornet's nest stuff. Fay rolling off the roof, sheriff ^ and Fay shooting each other, Helen Darling falling into the river. Fay attacking Peevish Pete with a sulphur pot, and a few little odds and ends like that." Fay began a fervent prayer for fine weather so she could get a day off. GOLDWYN is preparing to issue a burlesque on the "Timely Topics" style of stuff. It will be made up of sayings by Will Rogers, will be called "The Illiterate Di gest," and will be decorated by rope stunts. MARY PICKFORD won her case in court^she was the defendant in the suit instituted by Mrs. Cora Wilkenning, an agent, who alleged that Mary owes her $108,000 for managerial services rendered while Mary was in the Famous Players employ. Mrs. Wilkenning will appeal the case. Mary took the stand in her own defense, and thoroughly nonplussed the plaintiff's attorney when confronted by him, she looked him squarely in the eye, pointed her index finger at him, and said, "I'm scared of you." The lawyer coughed and replied. "I'm nothing to be afraid of" and Mary answered, "Well, you frighten me just the same!" « I Every aclvertisompiit ir PHOTOPLAY UfACAZTNE is guaranteed. A
