Editor: — I'm handing out bouquets to everyone. First one goes to you! The last issue of Screenland gave me absolute, sheer complete enjoyment. The covers are beautiful and the contents always interesting. A bouquet for Pola Negri. Let's give her two — just because! One for Baclanova (Yippee!) Another for Aileen Pringle. Paul Lukas is the first male actor I admire. I liked him in all his pictures, with the exception of "Two Lovers." It seems everyone likes the youngsters. Here's one for all sophisticates! I notice fans exchange photos through the movie magazine. Great! I have a great many Valentino stories and pictures and I'll give the whole layout to any reader of Screenland who will send pictures of my favorites (especially Pola Negri). If Pola sent me another letter, it couldn't make me happier than to see my letter in Screenland, the Ace of motion picture going to win that $500.00 — and there if just a chance that this time will be oui lucky strike. Last, but surely not least, are the reviews The time and money they save us, by steering us to the best pictures. Not only that, but sometimes we are unable to attend a certain picture we have looked forward to. and the interestingly written review bring; it almost before our eyes. Thanks to the advice contained in Screenland from month to month, I was one of the ten winners in a contest staged by our local theaters, for naming the ten best pictures shown in their houses during the year. The prize was a pass which admits me to any of the theaters, any or every night for a month. No wonder I am enthusiastic over Screenland! Of course, a fan letter wouldn't be complete without a confession of a favorite, and mine is Richard Arlen. His is no meteoric rise, no. over-night stardom which flashes for a few weeks and then is gone, but the steady rise of talent and ability which could not be concealed forever in extra and 'bit' parts. Sincerely. Elizabeth J. Winter. 13 Westlake Avenue. Auburn. New York. magazines! Very sincerely yours. Julia Tamara Reino, 21? East 121st Street. New York City. Her Testimonial Dear Editor: — Screenland — the key to the Fans* Movie Dreamland! There we meet as girlto-girl (or man-to-man), our friends of the silver sheet. We attend their formal dinner parties, and their informal swimming and tea fests. We share their disappointments, and applaud their good breaks. We attend the premiers, admiring the wonderful gowns and furs (if we are of the feminine gender), and collecting an autograph or two of our favorites. We .see them at home and on the set. We walk down the Boulevard and hear the comments on "To Talk — or not to Talk"; have luncheon at Henry's; and are allowed to go on location with Screenland's Location Lady. All for the small sum of twenty-five cents. Then there are the . contests. Although we have never won a contest in our lives (and have tried most all of them), we start the new one just as enthusiastically. Some lucky person, perhaps in our own town, is For Doris Kenyon Dear Editor: — I am going to tell the fans about my friendship with Doris Kenyon. As much as I like Doris on the screen I love her more for herself. She is so real and gives so much happiness. Doris and I have corresponded for several years. I have many gifts from her as well as photographs, snap* and such things. I wish you could have seen my Christmas box! Charles Mank. Jr.. was right when he said that Doris Kenyon never forgets a Christmas card. I know that she sent many to friends of mine — and they were so pleased. She does such thoughtful things to make her fan friends happy. They're not just fans, but friends. Doris has told me often that she wishes she could keep in touch with all her fan friends, but it is impossible. She is very talented as you all know. I have just received a long letter from her telling me all about a recital she is giving with a well-known pianist. She will give her original monologues, in costume, with piano accompaniment. I have many photographs of little baby Kenyon Sills. His famous mother and father are very devoted to their little golden-haired baby. I have many charming letters from such stars as Conrad Nagel, Lois Moran, Tove Blue, Dolores Del Rio, Helen Ferguson and Louise Dresser and others. Sincere letters are appreciated by the screen players. Be careful how you write and be original and you'll get results. Sincerely, Lucile Carlson, 206 East Main Street, Detroit Lakes, Minnesota.
