Picture Play Magazine (Sep 1920 - Feb 1921)

Advertising Section 101 G. G. — "The Wreck" was made by Vitagraph nearly six years ago. Ralph Ince directed it and Anita Stewart had the leading feminine role. Constance's hair is light brown. Richard Barthelmess recently married Mary Hay. I am sure that they will send you a nice photograph if you inclose a quarter with your request. Lotus Blossom. — George died with influenza two years ago. Helen Holmes is married to J. P. McGowan. The tears come naturally, of course. Your other questions have already been answered. Kittens. — If I told you all about myself there would be nothing left for you to be inquisitive about, and then you would not ask any questions, and as I make a living answering questions, I should do my best to encourage PicturePlay readers to be as curious as possible. Fifty out of every hundred disagree with the other fifty and swear that I am a man. I am pictured from sixteen to eighty, all of which is very amusing to yours truly and helps keep up the good spirits. No, Kittens, as soon as you find out all you want to know about anything, it's settled, and you drop it. I wouldn't want you to drop me, so I'll keep still. Tom Mix has no children. Casey Jones. — Myrtle Lind is married. Harriet Hammond was, but isn't now. That is her maiden name. Schuster was her married name. Addresses at the end of The Oracle. The Ruth Roland Fans. — All right, I'll take your word for it and be on the lookout for your letter each month, with the other steady contributors. Herbert Heyes is the name of Ruth Roland's leading man in her serials for Pathe. Marguerite Clark is Mrs. Palmerson Williams, and she has no children. Edna M. — It must have been quite a large book you lost to hold all those addresses. However, you will find them all printed at the end of this department. Miss V. Faroo. — The reason your last letter was not answered in the magazine was because you forgot to put your name on it. You almost did the same thing again this time, didn't you? Bill Russell is married to Charlotte Burton. He lives in Los Angeles. They go for their vacations wherever they happen to want to go, and not to one certain place as you imagine. Jack Holt is married, so is Jack Hoxie. Mable's Cousin. — You couldn't have been following the magazines very closely riot to have seen the announcements of Pearl White's marriage to Wallace McCutcheon. Nazimova has been married for several years. The only way I know you can get a theater to run the pictures you want to see is to ask the manager, and have your friends ask him. When he sees there is demand for it, he will get it — if he is a good showman. Mary Anderson is still playing in pictures. Madge's brother has never appeared on the screen. Jane and Katherine Lee are in vaudeville with a sketch. You will find your other questions already answered. Pearl White Admirer. — Walter McGrail played opposite Pearl White in "The Black Secret." "The Perils of Pauline" was the first serial she ever made. Crane Wilbur had the leading male role, and Paul Panzer was the wicked villain. "The Exploits of Elaine," "Romance of Elaine," "The Iron Claw," "The Fatal Ring," "Pearl of the Army," "The House of Hate," and "The Lightning Raider," are her other serials. She also played the leading role in the features, "Hazel Kirke," "May Blossoms," and "New York Lights." A Duncan Fan. — Where did you get the idea that Hampton Del Ruth played with William Duncan in "The Silent Avenger?" He did not. This serial was made in and around Los Angeles, California. You will find your other Duncan and Edith Johnson questions already answered. Da-Da. — Viola Dana was married to her director, John Collins, but he died two years ago after a siege of pneumonia. She is not married now. Shirley Mason is married to Bernard Durning. Harrison Ford is still a bach. One of our busiest rumors is that Constance Talmadge is going to marry somebody, but each time the rumor appears it concerns a different man. She certainly can't marry them all, so Dame Rumor must be wrong. We won't believe it until the wedding bells are ringing ding-dong. M. E. Graves. — Mae Marsh is married to Louis Lee Armes, and they have a little daughter, Mary Marsh Armes. H. M. A. — You will find the addresses of thfe former Vitagraph stars you write about at the end of The Oracle. Mrs. Pauline C. — -Gordon Griffith played the part of Taraau as a boy, and Elmo Lincoln was Tarzan grown up. Real animals were used in that picture. "Smiling" Bill Parsons died about a year ago. You saw "Broken Blossoms," and didn't see Dick Barthelmess? Well, I am surprised ! Dick played the young Chinaman who was in love with Lillian Gish. Now do you remember him ? I don't know of any from Richmond. Maxine B. F. A. — That was Geraldine Farrar's first appearance on the screen, and not Wallace Reid's. He began with Vitagraph, and then went to Selig way back in the good old days. From Selig he went to Universal and from the U to Griffith's and then to Lasky's, where he is at the present time. Gloria's hair is dark brown. I don't know about the color prints, but you might ask them when you write. Better inclose a quarter with your request. M. A. W. Alabama. — Why do you want the address of some one to send your picture to to have it criticized? There are hundreds of people who will criticize it no matter how good it may be. What you want is some one who will have at least a couple of good things to say about the features, now don't you ? The editor has charge of all photos in the magazine. Remember the rogues' gallery is full of criticized faces while the hall of fame has the other kind hanging on its wall. Moral : Well, you can see for yourself. Bill Hart Fan. — Bill Hart was not killed in an accident. I just heard from him last week, and I know he would have mentioned it if it had been true. Don't believe all 3'ou hear. Some people have nothing else to do but spread a lot of false talk, and the people who are busy should be too busy to believe it unless they see it in Picture-Play. I almost get peeved when I read the rumors that are spreading around. I feel like getting tip and lecturing on it. I think I'll get the editor to write an editorial on it. He has more time than I have. V. M. — I never heard of your friend Lionel, and the Metro Company, where you thought he was employed, never did, either. Sorry I can't help you locate him. Clair T. L. W. — I like Seena Owen very well on the screen, so you haven't any chance to start an argument on that score. You will find all addresses at the end of The Oracle.
