Advertising Section 115 Information, Please Continued from page 102 A Jean Arthur Fan. — Everybody asks such a lot of questions this month my poor, old brain is reeling and tottering. As to which actresses smoke, I can't say. We in New York are so used to women smoking that I never even notice which do and which don't. I do recall that Janet Gaynor doesn't. Jean Arthur's films are too numerous for a complete list ; her 1928 pictures are "Wall Flowers," "Flying Luck," "Warming Up," "Brotherly Love," "Sins of the Fathers," "The Canary Murder Case," though that is constantly being recast. In "We Americans," Sarah Schmidt was played by Flora Bramley. The hero in "Zander the Great" was Harrison Ford. In "The Midnight Sun," Pat O'Malley played the Grand Duke, Raymond Keane his bodyguard. It would take a whole page to give you the casts of all those big specials you ask about, but the leads are as follows : "Ten Commandments," Richard Dix, Rod La Rocque, Leatrice Joy, Nita Naldi, Estelle Taylor, John De Roche. "Golden Bed," Lillian Rich, Vera Reynolds, Henry B. Walthall, Rod La Rocque, Warner Baxter, Theodore Kosloff. "Don Q," Fairbanks, Mary Astor, Donald Crisp, Warner Oland, Jean Hersholt, Jack MacDonald. "The White Monkey," Barbara La Marr, Thomas Holding, Henry Victor, Charles Mack, Flora Le Breton. "Rose of the World," Patsy Ruth Miller, Allan Forrest, Pauline Garon, Rockcliffe Fellowes. 'Wallflowers," Hugh Trevor, Jean Arthur, Mabel Julienne Scott, Lola Todd. The villain's wife in "Josselyn's Wife" was Josephine Hill. You made me what I am to-day — a wreck — and I hope you're satisfied. CharmainE. — Yes, Mary Imogene Wilson are — or is girl. She isn't married and twenty-five. Jack Pickford i five feet seven, weight 130. I Bill Reid, Wallace's son, is teen by now; I haven't kept age. Dorothy Davenport is thirties. Nolan and ? — the same she is about s forty-two ; should think about fourtrack of his in her early Two Curious Fans.— And here I've kept you curious all these months, but after all, I can't perform miracles and put your answers in the "next issue," which is already in print, now can I? Lois Moran was born in Pittsburgh, March 11, 1909. She made a picture or two in Europe before Samuel Goldwyn discovered her and gave her the lead in "Stella Dallas," in 1925. Her 1928 films are "Sharpshooters," Love Hungry," "Don't Marry," "The River Pirate," "Fog," and "Making the Grade." Those latter titles may be changed before release. Lois is not married. Cicero Bath.— Yes, I suppose it is puzzling to a South American to understand our slang. "Buddy" is Charles Rogers' nickname. A "hick town" is a provincial town that is slow, not very lively, and not up to date. A "ritzy girl" is a girl who is snobbish and puts on airs of superiority. "To make the grade" means to come up to standard, or to achieve something successfully. "Goofy" is slang for crazy. I hope this helps you to understand our odd language; I feel just like a dictionary. Dee. — Thanks for those three cheers; my collection of cheers was getting all used up.
