Advertising Section Information, Please Continued from page 102 E. L. — Both Joy Flower and Lapis Lazuli write to give me the information you requested about Gaby Deslys. She played in three films : one, produced by Famous Players in Paris, was called "Her Triumph ;" the Eclipse Film Company, a French concern, made two pictures starring her — "Gaby"' and "The God of Luck." Her dancing partner, Harry Pilcer, was her leading man in the last one. She was under contract to an Italian company for more pictures, at the time of her death, Lapis Lazuli tells me. Lapis Lazuli. — Thank you so much for writing me the information about Gaby Deslys. E. J.— I'm sorry one of your letters to "What the Fans Think" was not printed, but of course that department receives so many letters it is impossible to print them all. Marion Davies was never married ; she is five feet four and a half inches, and was born in Brooklyn. Yes, I like her very much ; she has a charming sense of humor and a delightful smile. "When Knighthood Was in Flower," had for its principal players, besides Marion, Forrest Stanley as Charles Brandon, the hero; Lyn Harding as Henry VIII.; William Norris as Louis XII. ; Pedro de Cordoba as the Duke of Buckingham ; William H. Powell as Duke Francis; Ernest Glendenning as Sir Edwin Caskoden; Theresa Maxwell Conover as Queen Catherine; Ruth Shepley as Lady Jane Bolingbroke. ■ I believe Joyce Compton is under contract to First National, so you could reach her in care of that company. Jobyna Ralston has been working in Harold Lloyd's pictures, at 6640 Santa Monica Boulevard, Hollywood. Jean Acker, Valentino's first wife, was born in Trenton, New Jersey. Marguerite Courtot was born in Summit, New Jersey, Mrs. Carter de Haven in Perth Amboy, Anne Luther in Newark. Those, and Betty Bronson, are all the well-known actresses I can think of who were born in New Jersey. An Olive Borden Fan Club invites the readers of Picture-Play and any other friends and admirers of Olive to join the club. For further information, write Dorothy Stoll, 5156 North Ashland Avenue, Chicago, Illinois. "Try to be the first one in your State to join," the notice concludes. Dorothy Stoll. — I am very flattered that I should be the first "answer man" to be invited to become an honorary member of your club, and I gleefully accept your invitation. Fayette OTogarty. — I'm delighted to know where I "stand in your estimation." That's one place I never get tired of standing in. "The Four Hcrsemen" has already been revived in New York. Undoubtedly you will some day have your chance to see it for the fifth time. Thank you for your information about Gaby Deslys. A Richard Barthelmess Fan Club is being organized by Miss Ethel Milner, 1303 Dean Street, Brooklyn, New York. Miss Milner would like to hear from any fans who would be interested in helping her form this club. A Raymond Keane Fan Club — another one !— has been formed, and all those who wish to join may write to Miss Loretto Morgan, 736 South Logan Street, Denver, Colorado. A Motion Picture Players' Club wishes to be announced. Further information may be obtained from Miss Zarabelle X. Reisner, president, 2900 West Thirty-eighth Street, Chicago, Illinois. cJtnamg Secrets Revealed by Ifour Dreams WHAT did you dream last night? Were you failing — falling — falling past church steeples and high buildings, only to wake up, with a shock, half way to the ground? Do you know what that means? Were you pursued by strange fiends — monsters neither animal nor human, but half man — half beast, a pack crying for your life? Were you strolling down the avenue as Sunday crowds left church, suddenly aware that you were the center of every eye because you were only half dressed? Do you know what THAT means? Will you be rich? Will you travel? Will you marry soon? These and hundreds of questions answered in your dreams if you could only interpret them. Famous men and women of all ages have believed in dreams. Napoleon would not enter a battle, nor sign a document, nor make any important decision, without first consulting his dream book. And Napoleon conquered the world. You may be missing opportunities daily that would increase your happiness and fortune. Take no chances. Heed your dreams. Beside pointing out happiness that may lie ahead for you, they may also act as warnings of enemies, false friends, treachery, sickness and trouble. What is Fate planning for you?
