Requests for tb6 address of Mary Plckford have come to the office. Address letters to 270 Riverside Drive, New York.

I receive dozens of letters asking me why I have so many animals In my pictures and If I am very fond of them. ' Indeed I am fond of them, and they are often very Important factors In the moving picture world, for there are few actors or actresses quite as natural as dogs or cats. For silent comedy or drama what is more expressive than a sad-eyed pup or a basket of scrawny kittens loved and cared for by a poor little half-starved girl or boy? I was playing a little street urchin In a picture, several years ago, and our exteriors were taken in the tenement district. The children flocked around and mobbed us when the camera was set up. Then as soon as they saw our painted faces they all shouted at the top of their lungs, "We know what you are you're from the movies!" It took bribes of many pennies to keep them from dancing around us like a lot of wild Indlaps, but soon the novelty wore off and an organ grinder's monkey proved more entertainment than did we. So away they ran. A Forlorn Canine. Only one little boy was left, and as I looked at him I thought him a picture of the most forlorn, abject misery I bad ever seen. He was little, hungry and covered with the dirt of the streets, and hugged close to him was hlB dog. I had seen drawings of mangy pups which had just wrung my heart, but there was no pen-and-ink sketch to do justice to this little "ellow, long-eared, bowlegged puppy. The part I was playing might have been just such a girl as I imagined this little boy's sister to be. and as I was looking for "color" I borrowed his dog. A Brilliant Success. If I ever had to be jealous of the success of a fellow-actress or actor I was justified in the case of this longeared pup, who stole the laurels of the picture. Every time he came upon the screen a buret of merriment -greeted Ji is entrance, every, time he raised one eyebrow and looked at the audience saucily out of his big, sad eyes.

a murmur of sympathetic tenderness, which sounded very much like "Ooh, isn't he cute?" arose from the crowded house. In one scene he had climbed up in my lap and when my attention had been distracted he shot his long tongue out and licked me across the ' face. Of course, I made an awful grimace and scolded him for his imi pudence, but the more I scolded the ' faster his tail wagged until the audience was in an uproar of laughter. In "Tess of the Storm Country" I loved my white rabbit quite as much as Tess did, and in "Rags" the goat and I became great friends in Bpite of the rambunctious way he persisted in tossing me over his head. There was my horse in "Ramona," and in almost every picture I have had my little pets. Just before we started the "Girl of Yesterday" I was

given a powder purr or a aog. He was so tiny I could almost cover him with the palms of my hands, so cunning, so fluffy and white. We decided to use him in the picture and he made his debut as a trooper. It so happened that over the taking of the picture there were nineteen days of bad weather which kept ub from working, so we were at least six or seven weeks ' on it altogether. Each day I took the puppy to the studio and each day the director tore his hair and swore we would have to find some scientific remedy for stunting his growth that that pup grew and grew until by the end of the picture he was four times the size that he was in the beginning. As our exteriors are taken at one time and our interior sets at another, you would see the puppy walking Into the house the size of a miniature white spaniel and once inside, he had grown almost to a swagger spitz! If the picture hadn't finished in time I am sure he would have measured up with a Russian wolf hound. After this at our studio no growing puppies need Dnnlv '

believe, because we are stage people, that we are forced Into leading what you termed in your letter "sporty lives?" Our lives are just what we make them. If we choose the high road we can tread there without any danger of being shoved off. You are mistaken about the pitfalls. We are not beset with temptations and our life in the studios does not have a tendency to warp our growth. In fact,

we are broadened by it. There is

little danger where there is healthy

work. We breathe the pure, fresh air

into our lungs and are thankful for the out-of-door life we are leading. Please be a little more generous and do not judge all the profession by the individual you have met. It is always easy to find one bad apple in a box

of blue-ribboned ones. In this country last year motor vehicle owners paid more than $12,000,000 for the privilege of using the roads, and more than 1425,000 was paid in chauffeuers' licenses.

You choose the volume of tone and play each record as loud or soft as you personally wish to hear it, without in the least degree changing the artist's interpretation. Come in and hear your favorite music played with the different needles and you will fully appreciate the infinite variety of charm afforded by the Victor system of tone control.
