City. National Studio, Burbank, Cal. So you heard that Mary Pickford has red hair and freckles? Someone's been kidding you, Burton. Mary's hair is golden and she has a beautiful pink-and-white complexion. Rin-Tin-Tin is still going strong and may be addressed care Lee Duncan, Warner Brothers Studio, Hollywood, Cal. Mr. Duncan is his owner and trainer. Rinty is married and the proud father of a grow ing family. Cherie. The reason you didn't see your answer sooner was because there were so many ahead of you. I try to give everyone an answer in these columns, but some times there are so many requests for the same player's address that I can answer it only once. So please read my department thoroughly, won't you? As if you need to to be urged! Antonio Moreno is married to Daisy Danziger, member of a wealthy and aristocratic California family. They have a home in Beverly Hills. Tony and and Mrs. Tony are abroad at this writing, where Tony is making a picture; but they'll be back soon. Mary L. S., Tampa. Rod La Rocque finished his role in Tolstoy's and Edwin Carewe's "Resurrection" , in which he plays opposite Dolores del Rio, the Mexican beauty, and then he sailed for a vacation abroad. His permanent address is care C. B. deMille, Culver City, Cal. Rod is not married. Jack Mulhall's wife is Evelyn Winans, who used to be in pictures but is now content to be Mrs. M. They have no children. Jack will soon be seen in "The Poor J^ut" — it offers a dandy part for him, but he has to appear in specs — regular Harold Lloyd goggles. How will you like that, I wonder? Jack is crazy about it; he likes parts which offer opportunities for characterization. He's now a featured player, having risen rapidly in the past year. Norma Shearer, Marion Davies, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. — Metro-Goldwyn. May McAvoy is now a Warner star. George O'Brien will be seen in "Sunrise", for Fox. under Murnau's distinguished direction, opposite Janet Gaynor. And that's all for you this time, Mary. And no wonder. Lumber ]ac\ of the Great J^orthuest. So you 'beg to disagree with Delight Evans about her "Fillies" story in the November issue and believe that the ingenue race is between Norma Shearer and Patsy Ruth Miller. Well, these two girls have already arrived; that story was mostly about the girls who had not yet achieved stardom. See? No hard feelings, I hope. Ella Hall has retired from the screen. She is Mrs. Emory Johnson in private life — or she was; I'm not sure whether *they are divorced or not. Your other question is kind of hard to answer. There is no specific "early to bed and to rise" clause in any stellar contract that I ever heard of; but every star knows that if he can't face the camera in the morning with a clear conscience and a clear eye his contract won't last long, anyway. There is no profession which demands more wholesome living than screen acting, let me tell you. Write to me again, Jack; and give my regards to those men who always get theirs, 'way up there in that Great Northwest. "Adanac" Mac\. I have your list of film people who were born in Canada and have compared it with mine and I am unable to add any to yours. So Bert Lytell said he was born in Canada. According to my records. Bert was born and brought up in little old New York. Suit yourself. Du\e, Phoenix. Conway Tearle is now a free-lance player' and so is rather hard to keep track of. The latest information about him is that he is making a picture for F. B. O. Studios in Hollywood, Cal., called "Hello. Bill'' — I think it's a picture about the Elks. Hurry and you may catch Conway there. Yes. he's still married to Adele Rowland. Billie Dove is now a star for First National — at Burbank, Cal., studios. Virginia Valli is with Fox; Virginia is divorced and shows no signs of taking a new husband. My first name is not Bee. How could it be? Now will you be good? I hope to hear from you again, Duke; and if you can find Conway let me know and we'll trail him again; in other words — we'll co-star in a serial called"The i^uest of Conway", and Ell bet we make good.
