O'Rourke. — Norma Talmadge has been contemplating Aiming "The Garden of Allah"' for quite some time ; but contemplation, is all that has come of it. Her next picture will probably be "The Mirage," the Edgar Selwyn play in which Florence Reed starred in Broadway. Lillian Gish is twenty-six. Mary Carr is forty-six. Jacqueline. — My particular pet antipathy, which I keep in a glass cage on my desk, and feed carefully assorted breadcrumbs every day, and keep out of drafts, is the publicity person's passionate paragraphs about the star who, in her big emotional scene, wept such large and genuine tears that the hardened property men, watching, cried like little children. Do you blame me, Jackie? They do call you Jackie, don't they? Justine Johnson was born in iooo. She was a famous Broadway beauty, then became a picture star for Realart. She's married to Walter Wanger, who is a theater manager in London; so she's a resident of Britain at present. J. P. — If Rodolph Valentino were sensitive to admiration, he would not be starred. You can't be a star and still be sensitive to admiration. Rodolph probably hasn't the time to answer letters personally, but he might make an exception in your case. I can't promise, but I can tell you where to reach him : Lasky studio, Hollywood, Cal. He is married to Winifred Hudnut, known as Natacha Rambova in the studios. (Wonder if you'll still want to write to Rodolph?) Donald M., Caldwell, Ohio. — You wish my pardon for using white paper, as you had no pink or green handy. Well, I'll overlook it this time, but don't let it happen again. Clarine Seymour was in "The Idol Dancer" and "The Girl Who Stayed At Home," and was working in "Way Down East" when she died. Mary Hay Barthelmess took the part. Miss Seymour had a bright future and her death was very sad. She was not married. Write to the Griffith company about photographs of her. Edith E. K., Barnado, N. Y. — Stephen Carr is a potential matinee idol, all right. He already gets a substantial number of letters from girls — of course the girls are only thirteen and fourteen now, but they'll probably like him just as well when they're thirty and forty; because by that time Stephen will probably be making love to Miriam Battista or — oh, we're getting all mixed up. Stephen is the son of Mary Carr, the mother of "Over the Hill." He played the son in "The Yellow Arm." Maisie. — Maisie, whose Daisy are you? I just can't help making popular songs of people. Of course, I can't be sure they're exactly popular, but you know what I mean. Marguerite Courtot is seen opposite Glenn Hunter in that young man's stellar picture, "The Cradle Buster." Marguerite is very young and very demure — the typical ingenue as I understand her. She's about twenty-four, and lives at 19 Hudson Place, Weehawken, N. J. She's one of those girls to whom some interviewers almost invariably refer as "she's so sweet, you'd never think she was an actress." If I were an actress I'd resent that. Some of the nicest girls I know are of the screen or stage. Blonde. — A natural or bottled blonde? But of course I can't expect you to answer that, even though you do sign yourself "Truthfully mine." Gloria Swanson went abroad and remained until June. Now she is working again at Lasky's. Agnes Ayres and Valentino have never been engaged. Miss Ayres has been married, but isn't now. Richard Barthelmess, Lambs' Club, N. Y. C. His latest picture is "Sonny," from a stage play. Pauline Garon is his newest leading woman. James Elliott. — You're a clever artist, James. But I think you're limited. Every girl whose picture you have painted has had red hair. The question is, can you paint anything except red hair, or do you like red hair so well you won't do any other shade — temperament, etc.? When you come up to see us — I don't think you ever will, because you've been threatening to for four years and nothing ever come of it — but if you do, I'll lock my pink-haired stenographer into my file cabinet, and greet you ingratiatingly — alone. You say you'll ask for Delight Evans, too. I might as well warn you now : Miss Evans hasn't red hair. Perhaps, however, I could persuade her to change it before you come. Edward Earle's latest picture appearance was with Mabel Ballin in "East Lynne." Earle is in New York. Rudie's Admirer. — What a unique nom de plume! Wouldn't it be better to say "One of Rudie's Admirers"? I think so. You wish to know if Mr. Valentino is pronounced with the accent on the second syllable; if he smokes cigarettes in real life; if he is as wonderful a lover off as on the screen; if he autographs his own pictures or has a secretary to spare him the trouble; and if he hates girls. To which I reply, in my feeble fashion: No, on the third; yes; I believe so; yes; and probably not. Shirley. — Surely, Shirley, I'll answer your questions. They are short and simple, like you, Shirley. Lillian Gish, Griffith; Wanda Hawley, Wallace Reid, Bebe Daniels, Lasky; William S. Hart, Hart studio, Hollywood, Cal. Carl, H. G. — Barbara La Marr seems to be pretty popular. I know she's pretty, and I hear she is popular. She's the girl of the story, "The Girl Who Was Too Beautiful," in Photoplay Magazine's June issue. Miss La Marr is the adventuress of "The Prisoner of Zenda" and the heroine of "Black Orchids," both Rex Ingram pictures. Alice Terry doesn't appear in "Black Orchids," having left the screen for a brief period after her marriage to Mr. Ingram; but she will once again appear in "Toilers of the Sea." Catherine E., Louisville, Ky. — You want to start a movement to have the Elsie Books filmed? Well, I'll immediately start a movement for the Prevention of the Filming of the Elsie Books. I couldn't stand that. I'm not particular, and I am not ill-humored; but the mere thought of the filming of the Elsie Books makes me see a peculiar shade of crimson. Mary Pickford was born in Toronto, Canada, April 8, 1803. She is five feet high and tips the scales at one hundred pounds, Suzanne. Lou Tellegen and Geraldine Farrar are no longer husband and wife. The domestic difficulties of the diva and her actor-husband were aired in the newspapers and I wont go into them here. Suffice it to say they're no longer married. Farrar resigned from the Metropolitan Opera House to devote all of her time to concert work. It is said she will appear on the speaking stage for David Belasco in "Zaza," which role she has often sung. Marie Jeritza, Farrar's successor at the "Met," may go into pictures soon.
