Address Dept. 50 T Advertising Section Castle Fan— Irene Castle has formed a company of her own, so will doubtless be seen again in your home-town theaters before long. She lives in Ithaca, New York. Inquisitive. — You live up to your name, don't you? You'll find the addresses at the end of The Oracle. I'm glad you like the big pictures of screen favorites that we print, but I don't see how you can possibly frame all of them and have enough of your allowance left to go to the movies, too. You must be a millionaire. No, Pauline Frederick did not leave the screen when she left Goldwyn; she is now making pictures for Robertson-Cole, and her latest picture is "Madame X." It was Naomi Childers who played the part of Wyndham Standing's wife in "Earthbound ;" she is a member of the Goldwyn stock company. I think you will see Flora Finch again in pictures soon ; she left the screen for vaudeville, but now plans to return. No, it doesn't do any good to write the stars and ask them to do something about having their pictures shown in your town ; you will have to go to the owner of the theater and see if he won't arrange to show the pictures. Carlyle Blackwell has left the screen for the stage, and is now on the road in "My Lady Friends." Wilmington. — Yes, you could see Alice Brady on the stage if you came to New York. She is now appearing in a play called "Anna Ascends." Rod la Rocque is also in the cast, so you would see two of your favorites. Mrs. Sidney Drew is now directing pictures for Vitagraph. I don't know_ whether she will appear on the screen again or not. Mae Murray Fan. — Your favorite is no longer with Famous Players-Lasky, but has formed a company of her own, and her husband, Bob Leonard, will direct her pictures. She has yellow hair and blue eyes, and was on the stage before she went into pictures, winning fame as a dancer. Inconstant Reader .— I passed your letter along to Herbert Howe, but he says he doesn't send his photographs to any one ; if he did, he'd certainly send you one. I believe that he was offered a part in a screen production, but turned it down — so there's the answer to your question about why he doesn't go into the movies. You see, he would rather be a writer than an actor. Doris May was born in Seattle, Washington, and educated in a French convent there. She is still with Ince. Georgia Fan. — Alma Rubens is no longer with Cosmopolitan Productions. She was born in San Francisco,_ and has been on the screen for some time ; her career began with the old Triangle company. Her height is five feet seven inches, and she weighs one hundred and thirty pounds. Her hair and eyes are black. Virginia. — The next De Mille picture is named "Forbidden Fruit," and the cast is headed by Ayres and Forrest Stanley. Agnes used to be with Essanay, and also did some of the O. Henry stories for Vitagraph. "Even-thing for Sale" is the name of the picture in which Gloria Swanson will return to the screen as a start. Matt Moore is a brother of Tom and Owen, and appears on the screen occasionally. He is in New York at present. Oskaloosa Reader. — Gaston Glass was born and educated in France, and came to this country in Sarah Bernhardt's company some years ago. He is five feet ten and one-half inches tall, and weighs one hundred and fifty-six pounds. T. N., Chicago. — I do not believe you could possibly get a position as stenographer in one of the big film companies' studios by sending in an application by letter. It is absolutely necessary to apply in person for any sort of position. Billie Burke is now making a picture at the new Famous Players-Lasky studio at Long Island city, New York; Alice Bradv is also working there. Belle B— Anita Stewart and Lucille Lee Stewart are sisters; Lila Lee is not related to them. Anita is Rudolph Cameron's wife, and her sister is married to Ralph Ince, the director and actor. Marie Doro is still making pictures. Edith Roberts signed again with Universal, and is now on the coast working on a new production. Her last one was "The Adorable Savage." Helen. — Geraldine Farrar has made one picture since she left Goldwyn, "The Riddle : Woman," and is not now working in pictures. Curious. — No, Dorothy Dalton did not appear in "The Devil's Pass Key." Howcould she, when she is a Famous PlayersLasky star? The actress you mistook for her was Maud George, who has dimples much like Miss Dalton's and closely resembles her. V. V. — Ann Forrest is under contract with Famous Players-Lasky; she was to have had the leading role in the new Cecil De Mille picture, and then was given the female lead in William De Mille's new production instead. She was born in Denmark, in 1897, and has had extensive experience before the camera. She has yellow hair and blue eyes, and is five feet two inches tall. Jean from Salem.— Vera Gordon, who played the mother in "Humoresque," was born and educated in Russia, and had been on the stage for several years before she first appeared on the screen. She has recently finished a picture called "Mother Love." Gertrude. — Louise Huff is not now appearing on the screen. She retired when she was married last .year, then came back to make one picture for Selznick, and has not worked before the camera since then. Syracuse Girl. — Virginia Lee Corbin is now in vaudeville, doing very well ; she has not been seen on the screen for some time. I don't know whether you could get into pictures if you went to Los Angeles or not ; that would depend largely upon you, and also upon the producing companies. Lots of girls try to answer that question every year, but, of course, you don't hear anything about the ones who fail. I'd advise you not to try. Dixie. — It wouldn't do any harm to write to the stars at least, and probably most of them would answer. Yes, Alice Lake is under contract with Metro. Bessie Love has her own company. Muriel Ostriche is not making pictures at present. Neither is Virginia Pearson. Billy. — Edith Storey's latest picture is "Moon Madness." I hadn't heard that any of the big companies were working in Mexico. Many of the movie folk run over the border to Tia Juana occasionally, but that's a different story. Eva. — Betty Blythc doesn't play with any one company all the time; she appears in the productions of different ones. She played opposite Lew Cody in ''Occasionally Yours," and will be seen in the Fox production of "The Queen cf Sheba." * "THE HOUSE OF qUALITX" LW-SWEET ING 1650 1660 BROADWAY; NEW YORK.
