Famous Players productions. Her char
acterizations IN Caprice" and In the
Bishops Carriage" have been qualified
by trade critics as the most brilliant eff

work in the pretentious subjects which
the Famous Players are selecting for

for expression and artistic value. Miss
Pickford IS termed by many the most
popular motion picture star in the world,

a surprisingly young age, and solely
upon her own merits and talents. She

agement of David Belasco.
In a statement to the press, Little
Mary spoke as follows:
my decision to remain with the Fa-
nous Players Film Company should not
be surprising for two substantial reasons.
After my connection with David Belasco
in "a Good Little Devil and my more
recent association with the Famous Play
ers, could not consider any other affili-
alton without going backward instead of
forward. From close observation and
direct knowledge, I am certain that the
artistic policy Of the Famous Players is
far in advance of any other film con-
Germ with whose purposes am familiar.
I am very proud and happy TO know
that Mr.. ZukOr has enough confidence in
me to let me play some Of the great
parts that have been made famous on
the stage, and / dearly hope my work
viii please the vast motion picture pub
lie, whose encouragement and kindness
are my greatest inspiration.

arranged studio IL Los Angeles, which

ton of Edwin S. Porter. Miss Pick

Baird lost about half her hair and was
severely blistered about the face before

The story is laid in Little Italy and
concerns a wild young Italian girl. who

at her to prevent disaster. 1t was a
painful and fearful experience for the
young woman. but she believes she can
finish the picture with the aid of a
wig.

On The Screens

The New York Motion Picture CorpO-
ration Expects to Secure William Faver-
sham in Julius Caesar" for Produc-
ton in Pictures On An Unprecedented
Scale.
''Ten Nights in a Bar Room,' that, as
a drama on the speaking stage, enjoyed
the praise of pulpit and press for its
forceful moral and its dramatic pOr-
trayal of a common home tragedy, has
been produced in motion pictures by the
Photo Drama Company, of New York.
As a picture production its strong
scenes have gained strength and bring
out in the fullest possible manner the
poverty and ruin caused by intemperance
in a way that does not distress, but in
terests, while its lesson goes straight to
the heart.
1t is an educational feature as well
as a dramatic production that, being

and nationalities, viii have a far-reach-
ing influence that can not be estimated,

shortly after accidentally kills little Mary
