The Picture Oracle 155 (Continued from page 152,) Happy. — Anita Stewart is not playing opposite Earle Williams any more. She is working with S. Rankin Drew. We prefer Earle to Rankin, although others may not. Williams is an American, born in Sacramento, California, on February 28th, 1880. Anita Stewart is also an American, and was born in Brooklyn, New York, just twenty years ago. Our favorite actor and actress are Henry Walthall and Bessie Barriscale ; our favorite clothes model Crane Wilbur. We are even getting to patronize his barber, we have been so busy. What say you? Crane Wilbur hasn't seen a barber in ages? Well, neither have we. Who am I ? Why, I'm the person who thinks he's me, but he isn't. I am. No, I don't answer questions in any other magazine. I have all I can do to answer them in one. Paper must be very dear in your town, judging from the size of the envelope you used. Miss Grace Cunard Fan. — Back again with some more, I see. Welcome home ! Whatever kept you away so long? The bracelet was given Grace Cunard by an admirer. I should say we do know her, and she is one sweet little girl, take it from whence it cometh. We don't know Grace's present poundage, and, besides, do you think it fair to give her aweigh? Why so stingy this time? You might have used another sheet of paper. "Si." — So you girls had an argument, you did? Yes, Charlie Chaplin played two parts in "A Night in the Show." He played himself as well as the character of Mr. Rowdy. This was an Essanay production, and Charlie Murray is doing his stunts for Keystone. Lewis J. Cody was Dick Ames, opposite Bessie Barriscale in '"The Mating," an exceptional picture. Air. and Mrs. Carter De Haven played the leads in "The College Orphan." Johan Junior was the cub reporter. Violet Mersereau is eighteen years old. Still Waiting. — Quite a title, but where does it come in? You haven't favored us before with a letter of questions, so what are you waiting for — to graduate? So in two years you will be out of high school? That's fine. A very funny coincidence about Charlie Ray, to be sure ; but, little lady, you are wrong, as Charlie's father did not call himself Charles, because his son would have had to add "junior" to his name if he did. Charlie and his parents hail from Jacksonville, Illinois. The "Coward" was a wonderful production, to be sure. The same is the case with "His Picture in the Papers." You can get a photograph of Charlie Ray, like the one in the April issue, and autographed, by sending to me. I'll see that it is forwarded. His address is care of Ince Studios, Culver City, California. So you like Picture-Play, and admit it is the best magazine of its kind on the market. Thank you. So do we. R. D.
