LESS Than the Dust" a photo
drama of uncommon power and high
poetical imagination, is the vehicle
through which Mary Pickford rises to
even greater heights than usual. 1t
is seldom indeed that during the
course of single performance the
full scope of her talent has been so
demonstrated
The story opens with her as little
girl, guttersnipe of some
Indian city, foster daughter TO
sword maker. Hers is the philosophy
that to take from those who have
too much is not sin for those who
have too little; and we find her pill
fering native fruit stands with great
glee and eminent success. Deep down
in her heart she has cravings to be as
the English are-it is blood answer
ing blood, for she is the daughter of
English parents; mother dead in her
infancy, father derelict on the great
sea of opium, and herself given to
the care of the native.
A1clGCI OII sic COIuCS lIILO her
in England and the transition from
barbarism to civilization is splendid
ly worked out. If Mary Pickford left
undone single thing that a real
Indian waif would do either on her
native heath or when brought face to
face with the astonishing restrictions
of modern convention, it is certainly
not apparent. The way she "jewed''
down the hucksters, and refused a tip
to the English coachman, whose nose
tokened too great intimacy with the
flowing bowl, was liberal education
in itself-especially in these hot and
scrambling times of H. C. L.
Exquisite photography, splendid
characterization and beautiful scenery
all the way through. A notable pro-
duction-so correct in all the essen
tials that we are willing to pardon
the wee slip of stage management
when one of the characters who was
shot in the chest, carried his arm in a
sling three months after it happened
LESS Than the Dust" will show
again at the Isis today fact
which not only those who have not
seen it, but also those who have
will appreciate.
