But here goes for some of them. Pearl White does wear a wig before the camera. Edith Johnson does when she appears as a blonde, which used to be most of the time. Pauline Frederick does not wear a brace to. keep her back in place — it stays where it belongs of its own accord. Fanny Ward is forty-five. Theda Bara did not die ; she's as much alive as you and I are. Elaine Hammerstein really sang in that picture. Norma Talmadge is twenty-three. She has no children. Katherine MacDonald is not married and is called "The American Beauty" because she is so beautiful. Alary Have is little and very pretty; she has been married since June 18 — just as long as Dick Barthelmess has. Harold Lockwood was married to his wife when he died; write to the Metro Film Corporation, Longacre Building, New York City, and you can probably get a picture of him. Harrison Ford won't tell anything about himself— not even his age. He is making a picture at the Talmadge Studio now. He has been playing with Wanda Hawley. Harold Lloyd is a bachelor and is twentyseven years old. Bessie Barriscale is a blonde. She changes the color of her hair by wearing a wig. Louis Bennison is not making pictures at present. That'll be about all for you two this time — come again C. H. H. — Your letter -wasn't a bit -o long, and I enjoyed it very much. Yes, the same questions are asked pretty often — people don't seem to want to believe some things unless they read them at least twenty times. Probably you're right about dozens of girls asking me if Dick Barthelmess is married. So you think we aren't getting as good pictures as we used to. Well, perhaps you're right — though I believe that "Way Down East" is just as good a picture as "Tess of the Storm Country" was, and I think "The Miracle Man" and "Earthbound" compare pretty favorably with "The Aryan." Perhaps Hart feels that he has to make his pictures suit the fan-s — they seem to want him to do the same things over and over again, you know. I think that answers your question about Wallie Reid, too ; he has to do what the public wants him to. I believe you're changing, though, of course, it's possible that pictures aren't improving and that the fault may be with them. Z. C. — We've recently had interviews with both your favorites, so I'm sure you must b happy. Edith is not married, and that is her real name. She has brown hair and eyes and is five feet four inches tall. Yes, she is playing opposite William Dun j can. I think she would send you her picture. William Duncan is not married. | He is five feet ten inches tall and has dark brown hair and dark blue eyes. He weighs one hundred and eighty pounds. That is his real name. E. V. P. — Your Duncan and Johnson questions have just been answered. It's hard to tell what Tony Moreno is going to do. Carol Holloway is not related to Bill Duncan and did not play with Tony in "The Invisible Hand" because the pow! ers that control Vitagraph didn't think it best. Joe Ryan didn't play with William and Edith in that picture because he was being costarred in another one with Jean Paige. Didn't find those stamps inclosed. Juntor. — David Powell has never gone on record as anything but a bachelor. That's his right name ; he was born in Wales and stands five feet ten.
