In the stage play, Kate Claxton, herself, played Btnrlette, and that was considered the most Important part. "Yen sometimes ask for suggestions, from your readers, about hew te run jour column. Fer my part, I enjoy the appreciations much mere than the fault fadings. There have been numerous 'ilnms' (both by the shepherd and his 8ck) at Mae Murray in 'Peacock Alley,' but nobody, until very recently, tTr mentioned the fine acting of Mente Bias In that picture. As a consequence. I im afraid I have missed all chance of letlng it. What kind of shepherding de you call that7 "Chapter Three: As a connois seur of acting, don't you think that when an actor takes a mediocre part of an unherelc character In a story of modern life, and plnys the pnrt nirerally and agreeably, with no over acting, he Is doing all that-any human icter can be expected te de? And would net that apply te 'Beyond the Becks'? I will admit that I was dis appointed in it, like many ethers, but . en a second visit, I saw much te enjoy, and the people around me seemed te be getting Just as many thrills and tense moments out of It as they would from tome of the hair-raising near-accidents and unreal episodes in ether pictures I have seen. (I'm sorry you missed "Peacock Al ley" en my sny-se, but I can only repeat It was pretty awful. As a matter of fact, "Fascination," Mae's latest, was about twenty time better. OesU, if you can stand seeing "Beyond the Rocks" twice jeu must be n glutton for punishment. And, may I ask, arc you sure the person In question nliln t Ver-act." T think he did in that particular picture, though I pretest ence aialn that I nm net ngnlnst h m en general principles. I'll keep my thumbs etralght until he shows Just what he s tot in him.) ' "A Gerry Flapper" writes! "I neltee In today's Kvracraa Pom.ie Ltdeek that lOne Llvln' catalogued "The Weman Who Walked Alene' as Junk. Even if you had net risen te the , defense of the picture nnd also or 'Moren of the Lady Letty,' I should have done se, because they nre two of the very few pictures which I have Been lately and honestly enjoyed. As for Miss Dnlten'a being n superb Belinda, I should give her credit for being a great ileal mere than that. Of course It Is net always possible for her te have roles ns admirably halted te her as Pell In Teel's Pnrndiee,' but no matter what part she tnkps, in my numnle opinion she always fills It very espaWv. What de you think, Mr. N'eely? "And new mny I take Just a few pore minutes te ask you peme questions In regnrd te Geraldine Fnrrar? , "Seme time age you held that her picture, 'The Weman Oed Forget' is te be released this summer. Can you clve any Idea when? I also should like te knew If Goldwyn Is going te relense any of her pictures. "And, Mr. Neely, T believe you said jorae rather nasty things about Miss J'arrar's acting in the picture. 'The Weman Ged Forget.' I beg te disagree with them, because in my mind she is one of the best dramatic actresses today. , (Yeu'n me agree neatly en lending ladles. I've been watching Miw Walten's recent work with, all kinds of Interest. And where'd you get the Idea 'bt I "said some rather nasty things" wnit Gernldlne's acting In "The Weman Ged Forget"? I beg te differ. I mny have said the picture wasn't he equal of "Maria Resa" and "Jean the Weman," but I'm frank te admit I , sever saw Miss Fnrrar In any film In which her own acting was net of a caliber far above the nverage screen ability. The Laskv company, because ff the success which attended their r Iwulng of six of their best features (which showed nt a downtown thentre we In the spring), announced that they would reissue a second set of six.

"In hU letter Mr. Valentine points out that all of these statements art ab solutely untrue. Ner does he base his objection te tbenv en snobbishness, hut rather en the assumption that in a free country every man has a right te have a mir hearing and te state lita case when some adverse e te decrada him. "Ills father, he says, was Dr. Gie vanni Gugllelml, formerly a captain In the Royal Italian Cavalry and Uter a student In bacteriology, who Is well known in European scientific circles for his discoveries. "Vnlentlne himself, he says, came te this country in the first cabin of a trans-Atlantic steamship, On the pas senger list he was catalogued at an 'agriculturist,' because he studied In college for n number of years te learn that profession and was granted a di ploma upon graduation. "Fer n long tlme after arriving here he could obtain no work, and when his savings were running perilously low a Mr. Bliss, of Jericho, L. I., employed him te lav out an Italian garden en his estate. Mrs. Bliss, however, returned from Europe and decided te use that Sert of the estate for a golf course, se lodelph lest his Jeb. "Ills next employment waa as a dancer. Frem this, every one knows, he stepped into the movies. He changed his name, he adds, net because he was nshamed of it, but because It Is a hard name for en American te pronounce. I, for one, think he did all of us a great favor by this. At any rate, he showed mere common sense than the one who syndicated that story which does net seem te be a very geed Illustra tion of our boasted American policy of 'fair play,' "Every one who comes here should be given a square deal. We certainly ought net te threw mud in their faces I have seen Valentine In several of his pictures, nnd if I nm any judge of dra matic art, he Is n geed actor, much bet ter than the ordinary vnrlcty. And he bheuld be encouraged, net slandered. "His work in 'The Four Horsemen' was splendid. Likewise his acting in 'The Conquering Power.' He Is an artist. Fred Nlble, who directed 'Bleed and Hand,' said he wns one of the most 'sensitive and responsive' actors he had ever worked with. And Mr. Nlble ought te knew whnt he is talking about.

HELLO, everybody here I am back again I Se many things have happened since I was with you last that I hardly knew where te begin. First, an expen sive doctor ordered a complete rest. I followed his orders aa much as one possibly could In this strenuous Holly wood and aa a reward he ordered the rest finished up with a vacation at Oatnllna. But that was worse 1 Buster Keaten and his company were ever there en location and I spent part of the time out en their beat. It was lucky I did, for something happened that I might net have seen In a Ufa time. In one sequence of the story which Rescoe Arbuckle wrote, by the way Buster is supposed te sheet a harpoon at a whale. The company hired a gun and a man te sheet it. Everything was prepared, and we all steed around with our hands ever our ears. It went off all right, and se did the man. The gun came loose from its fastenings en the deck, and It and the man described one of the prettiest backward curves ever a three-feet rnll that I ever saw. Fer a moment no one realized what had happened, then quick as a flash one of the men in the company wns ever after him. It did my heart geed te bee such a quick-thinking net of bravery. Luckily tbe man was net hurt beyond n slight bead wound nnd a cut hand. He was a llttle dazed at the shock, but said that after the first moment In the water he realized what hed hap pened and, revived by the cold, wns able te swim bnck te the beat. He said that if he hadn't been practicing back ward flops at home tbe clay before, he would have been hit in the head by the gun as it went ever. Lucky man! Al Jolsen was ever at the Island, tee. He came te de a little informal fishing, nnd was heartily disgusted because the fish refused te biteT The dny before I come home, he flew back te the main land in n hydroplane. The trip takes twelve minutes, as compared te two hours in the Avnlen, one of the big beats plying between San Pedre and Catalina.
