Paramount Pictures at Town Hall.

SATURDAY, JUNE 10TH.
Jesse l.. Lasky presents Ina Claire in
THE PUPPET CROWN"
with Carlyle Blackwell.
Most of the events of "The Puppet
Crown" transpire in the little European
kingdom of Osia, where the invalid King
is at the mercy of his Chancellor, who is
plotting to dethrone him and set the Ouch
ess Sylvia up as ruler in his stead. The
daughter of the King has, while incog-
nito at an American school, fallen in love
with rich young American, and when
matters reach desperate condition, the
young fellow strives to uphold the totter-
ing fate of the King, even though he
knows that If the Princess rules she can
never marry him.
In the end the Princess loses her throne,
but she wins the man she loves, and
therefore the tragedy of revolution be-
comes ultimate for both heroine and hero.
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14TH,
Mary Pickford in one of her greatest
characterizations,
"RAGS."
rags" the current production of the
Famous Players Film Co., starring the
beloved Mary Pickford, and the chief
feature on the Paramount program, may
be accurately termed one of her greatest
Demonstrations. Written by Edith
B. Delano, the famous novelist, and d.
rected by James Kirkwood, Rags" is
one of the most powerful screen portray
ais in which Miss Pickford has ever ap-
peared.
Miss Pickford repeats in rags" the
transcendent triumph she attained in
"Tess of the Storm Country" and 1.-THE
Dawn of Tomorrow. Always mimi
table, always human, lovable and impul-
sive, she makes the characterization of
rags" living, breathing incarnation
of all that is sweet and tender. The dra-
matte situations are numerous and pow
erful, and the sacrifices, remuneration
and ultimate triumph of the abused and
oppressed title character are thrilling in
the extreme. Rags" is a genuine Pick
ford classic.
What Little Mary can do in rags
before camera has been conclusively
proven in her past performances.
