These were qualities that little Gladys Smith of Toronto apparently had at age five, when, after her father died, she started to act in stock companies. Under the guidance of her mother, the ultimate stage mom, she trouped her way out of the provinces to New York City. There Theatrical Producer David Belasco named her Mary Pickford, and D.W.

That's what the ex-Beatle, who is now 38 and last released an album in 1975, paid for a full-page ad billed as "A Love Letter from John and Yoko to People Who Ask Us What, When and Why." He and his wife take five paragraphs to bring a presumably breathless world up to date on how the Lennon family is faring in Manhattan. The couple have been conducting a "Spring Cleaning...
