Mary Pickford as Little Pal'' Aston
ishingly Appealing

Following her overwhelming triumph
in 1.-The Dawn of Tomorrow Mary
Pickford, the Incompatible star of the
Famous Players Film company repeats
her success in powerful character por-
trayal in Little Pal, the latest pro-
duction of the Famous Players Film
company on the Paramount program,
featuring this gifted star at the Or
pheum theatre.
In the role of the little half breed girl
who renounces her happiness, opportun-
ity and even safety for the man she
loves, Mary Pickford is superb AL
though the nature of this characterize
tion is entirely new to Miss Piokford,
she suggests the semi-Indian maid with
such force and naturalness as to be ut
terly astonishing in her effectiveness
"Little Pal' is an original story,
woven about the star, and it provides
her with abundant opportunity for
Pickfordisms, and the constant dem.
onstration of the qualities for which
she is universally famous.
The atmosphere of the story is as
novel to the followers of the Paramount
program as is the characterization to
Miss Pickford. Departing from it's reg
ular policy of presenting only the cele-
brated successes of literature and the
stage, the Famous Players Film com
pany has created this unusual story for
Miss Pickford, first, because it is so
rre-eminently suited to the talents of
this star, and, secondly, because it pos
sesses an originality of environment en-
tlrely new in Famous Players produc-

tions, while equipping Miss Pickford
with role entirely distinct from her

TO say that Miss Pickford overcomes
the obstacles derived from the strange
ness of her Characterization, and rises
above the technical difficulties which it
presents, is undertaking the truth. She
makes of Little Pal, an unforgetta-

British merchantmen have been
