It is frequently contended that the

there Is much magic wrought in the

Star wonderful Role.
In the Glory of Yolanda,'' the Vi
tagraph Blue Ribbon feature which
is at the Pastime theater on Sunday
and Monday, Anita Stewart gives her
! friends ample proof that she is wor-
try of any praise they have ever be-
slowed. In fact she gets right into her
part and makes the role a living one.
Her audience feels the trials and joys
of the little Russian girl as though she
was living before them and il is vita
regret that the story is seen to end.
In the first part of the story which
was written by Maibelle Heikes JUS
tice and directed by Marguerite
Bertsch, Miss stewart is seen as llt-
tie Russian peasant girl in whom
burns an intense desire to dance. She
Is ENCOURAGED by her mother but the
stolid father places a ban upon her
high spirits and love for dancing
However, she runs off into the forest
and dances with the squirrels ant
birds as her audience. She seems to
radiate happiness and is just a mere
slip of a lass-a loveable little lady
whom it would be a pleaure to know.
Finally her fathers treatment be-
comes too severe and with her mother
she leaves for the city to become q
great dancer. In her soul burns the
great white flame OF purity and en-
tirely innocent Of the dangers anC
snares OF the world she continues to
act in the same way as she did back
home with the simple country folk.
Her wonder at the city luxuries
and conveniences is cleverly portray

When success comes as premier
danseuse she Is just as lovely and be-
witching as before in the costume of
the ballet dancer. Her feet fairly fly
oeyr the smooth stage floor and her
eyes sparkle with sheer happiness.
When her mother passes into the
