& Gladys Leslie
It looks as if Vitagraph had picked a winning team in Gladys
Leslie and Edward Earle. Known as „The girl whose
smile wont rub off,“ Miss Leslie is said to possess an abundant
share of the magnetic personality that sets a star
a-gleaming.

& „I know, but I refuse to touch a part of your old dinner if you
won‘t tell me something to tell the public.“
„Well,“ she answered, „let‘s see. You tell them I like
chicken chow-mein, baseball, animals, the fox trot,
French fried potatoes (we‘ve got some for you), Charlie Chaplin, Tschaikowsky, F. P. A. and you.“
So there you are.
(P. S. – It was a lovely dinner. – H. U.)

„A grimy little backyard tableau“
Editorial content. „Mr. Chaplin is the miniaturist of laughter. His
humanity makes him a world-relief, and his perfection
of detail should be – and is not – a lesson to all his acting
brothers. I commend Chaplin‘s slowness of output;
it is the true artist‘s determination, in the face of a temptation
consisting of literal barrels of gold, to do nothing not
worth while. A Dog‘s Life, though only a grimy little backyard
tableau, ranks with the year‘s few real achievements.“
