Photoplay (Jan-Jun 1920)

Photoplay Magazine— Advehhsing Section Questions and Answers (CotUmued) The Mystic Rose. — I never heard of Eugene pronouncing his last name as they pronounce potatoes in fashionable restaurants, "0-bri-enne." However, I suppose it can be done. I certainly think your getting two photographs and a personal letter each from Mary Pickford and Charles Chaplin is good and sufficient proof of your prowess with the pen. But then I didn't need any proof. Pearl While has several cars of her own. I know this is so, although I have never had a ride in any of them. (Adv.) As to your question: when any gossip repeats a slanderous story, / — stare her — or him into silence. Try it sometime. Don't stay away so long, again. W.WNE Edson, Ogden, Utah.— Don't worry about your letter not being friendly enough. Most of them are too deuced friendly to suit me. I weary of the eternal "Sweet Rips" and "Old Dears." Gladys Brockwell in "Flames of the Flesh." I note your suggestion about her. Write to our Circulation Department in Chicago for that information. Helen J., Montgomery, Alabama. — My dear child — you are most disturbing ! Honestly I don't write books. Call me anything you like; say I am a hopeless lowbrow who wears glasses and pink shirts and green ties; but, for Shakespeare's sakes, don't accuse me of being an author. So, you saw Jean Sothern in vaudcvil e and ■you want a great big darling picture of her in the art section. That's up to the editor. You'll get your Jack Holt prayer answered in this issue. RowENA, L. I. — Where is Ivanhoe? I don't see why some enterprising producer doesn't recreate this Walter Scott romance; it is very adaptable to the screen. We have a series of fashion articles by Norma Talmadge, beginning in this issue. The Elsie Ferguson story on "Good Taste and Clothes" was not a part of the regular fashion department inaugurated by Miss Talmadge. Norma is, I believe, generally considered the best-dressed star on the screen. I don't know much about such things, but Norma always looks good to me. Dorothy June, Ohio. — The longest dinner party I ever heard of was one given by a monarch of France and which consisted of 1 60 courses. I believe this was Louis XIV. Nowadays, we eat a little and dance a little; then eat a little and dance some more. I never get enough to eat. Niles Welch is married to Dell Boone, who sometimes appears in pictures. Mabel Normand is not and never has been married. Mabel's latest is "The Slim Princess." Gwendolyn, Chicago. — I am not staying awake nights worrying about whether we'll be able to communicate with Mars. If it were Venus, now — Conway Tearle is to be starred by a California company ; his wife is Adele Rowland, at present appearing on the New York stage in "Irene," which musical comedy role Edith Day created. Irene, Newton, Mass. — I have seen John Barrymore in "Richard III." He gives an impressive performance. But as one critic rt^marked, "I enjoyed the first five hours of Richard." It's an exceedingly long play. Pearl White questions answered elsewhere. M. v., Newark. — You ask if Mary P'ckford didn't take off two parts in "Stella Maris" and, presuming that you mean did '^he play two roles, my answer is yes. ■€: JSM^: / j'^m wl -., Scenes from the Universal Feature Film **He€ids Win/** "Heads Win! »♦ platfc Traffic jammed at the rush hour! Crowds thronging station orms! A mile of stalled trains! The swing-bridge would not close and all because down in the power house something had gone wrong and nobody knew what — until Jim came to the rescue. Each night thousands are seeing unfolded on the screen the thrilling story of Jim Godfrey, who, in the hours after supper, with the help of the International Correspondence Schools, had put a trained head on his shoulders —a head that knew what to do in an emergency. There are thousands of Jims in real life. You will find them in offices, shops, stores, factories, in mines and on railroads. For in every city and town and in every line of industry there are men who have gained in spare moments, with I. C.
