K927 10S N. State St., Chicago. HI. STORES IN LEADING CITIES Cynthia De. — Descriptions cannot make motion-picture actors or actresses. There must be. something besides good looks. You refer to Alan Forrest in "The Great Air Robbery," Lieutenant Ormer Locklear's first motion picture. Yes, I suppose you would call him quite "cute." Sorry you broke your fountain pen while writing to me. Don't you think 3rou had better stick to your present job instead of trying to become a motion-picture actress? Irene H. — "Lucille Love" was probably the best-known serial that Grace Cunard appeared in. Since she played opposite Elmo Lincoln in "Elmo the Mighty" she has been making two-reel pictures ior the National Film Corporation. They were not taken from books. They were original stories, written especially for serial production. "The Purple Mask" was another of Grace's serials. You refer to Doris Kenyon in the Pathe serial. Marion S. — A regular continuation. Wanda Hawley is five feet three inches tall. So is Alia Nazimova. Irene Castle is five feet seven. Dorothy Gish is just five feet. Catherine MacDonald is five feet eight. Corinne Griffith is five feet four. Mildred Harris is five feet two, and Tom Meighan is just six feet. Creighton Hale was born in Cork, Ireland. He is very much on the screen. His latest picture is "Way Down East," which D. W. Griffith recently gave to the screen. He also had a prominent part in "The Idol Dancer." Where do you get that "Are all picture people evil?" You must be one of those people who believe everything they hear. There are just as fine folk in the motion-picture game as in any other profession. Mrs. F. McG. — The editor is mailing you a copy of the "Market Booklet." No trouble at all. Miss Inquisitive. — The women stars seem to be more popular than the male species, but it is a question whether they really are. The reason they may seem so is that most of the fans who write to the stars are women, and women are naturally most interested in women, in comparisons, et cetera. The box-office angle is the only way to tell for sure, and that shows that the women stars haven't anything on the men when it comes to bringing in the gold to the theater manager. Your list of favorite leading men includes mostly stars. The difference between stars and leads is that the star is the person featured, while the lead is just the head of the supporting cast and has to play second fiddle to the star. Mamaroneck, New York, is where the Griffith studio is located. Lots of them take care of their own mail. He is about twenty years old. No, I don't think there is anything to that report. "Little Miss Rebellion" is the latest picture in which Ralph Graves supports Dorothy Gish. M. E. W. — Alia Nazimova is the wife of Charles Bryant, her leading man and scenario writer. He played opposite her in "The Brat" and "An Eye For an Eye." She was born in Yialta, Crimea, Russia. She received her education at Zurich, Odessa, and a dramatic • school at Moscow. She made her first stage appearance in New York City in 1906, presenting "Hedda Gabler," "A Doll's House," and "The Master Builder." Her first picture for the screen was "War Brides," in which she had "previously scored a sensational success on the stage. William Farnum played in "Wolves of the Night." He is married. Charlotte F. — You forgot to inclose the stamp. Pearl White is married to Wallace McCutcheon. The Red Bird. — Mary Pickford was featured in "Heart of the Hills." June Elvidge is not dead. There are several firms who sell portraits of the late Harorld Lockwood. You will find your other questions already answered. Look at the end of this department for the addresses you want. Freckles. — Perhaps he likes that type of story best. He has his own company. Wallace Reid has the magazine story "Always Audacious" for his latest picture. Wanda Hawley is married. She was born in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Mary Pickford has not left the screen, and doesn't intend to — for a while, at least. What do you mean \v Harrison ? Douglas Fairbanks' latest picture is "The Mollycoddle." You will find your other questions already answered. Blue Eyes. — Alice Lake is not married and never has been. She was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1897. Car^-le Blackwell has not died again — not even yet. He seems to be reported dead by the gossip mongers every month or so. Don't believe everything you hear. Wait ■ until you read it in Picture-Play — then you can be sure it's right. Clara Kimball Young was born in Chicago, Illinois. She is not married. Anita Stewart has a home on Long Island. Her husband is Rudolph Cameron. Jack Mulhall was born in New York. Casson Ferguson was born in Alexandria, Louisiana, in 1891. His latest picture is "Madame X," in which he plays Pauline Frederick's son. He plays with different companies.
