"ENfMY OF STORK'S NEST"

Few stars have ever taken such a
sudden and permanent bound into
motion picture fame as little Mary
Miles Minter, the captivating young
actress, whose next work on the
screen will be seen in Emmy of
Stork's Nest" Columbia Picture
CORPORATION production recently
released on the Metro program. Miss
Winters fame has been we'll earned,
for she has been on the stage since
she was seven years old--she is now
fifteen-and is a consummate artist
with a wide and diversified knowl-
edge of things theatrical. Her first
appearance was with Nat Goodwin
in "Comeo Kirby" but her biggest
success was in "The Little Rebel
a play in which she starred for four
years with William and Dustin Far
mum.
In Emmy of Stork's Nest" Miss
Minter has a role for which she is
ideally suited. She is seen as a
happy go-lucky girl of the noun
tains, wild flower growing in To-
Gale filled with human weeds. There
comes to this community a young
man from the city, who Immediately
meets with disfavor-and especially
arouses the scorn of the mountain
girl-because of his manners and
clothes. He falls madly in love with
her and finally proves his worth.
How family of counterfeiters con-
spire to break the match and ruin
the young man; how they are
thwarted and true love- is made to
run smoothly, is revealed in a grip
ping story telling vivid tale teem-
ing with thrills. The setting for the

of the Ozarks of Missouri, has at
forded unusual opportunity for a
quality of photography of high ar
tistic worth. Emmy of Stork's

said the machine had been given to nm
by the woman's deceased brother the day
before he died and because 1t was OF an
