Ann Pennington, starring in The Little Soldier Girl" which is being shown at the Empress today and to- morrow, is one of the most charming actresses on the screen and already has made her mark in filmdom. Her latest vehicle, The Little Soldier Girl, IS refreshing story of a vivacious. lovabie girl who becomes a soldier rather than be a party to a distasteful mar riage which has been arranged by her parents Her escapade in running away rom home leads her into all sorts Of Dredicaments and, incidentally, into the tie of the charming soldier boy who inaliy makes her his wife.
 Owen Moore takes care of the male ead in the production and the quality # his work is too well known to war ant any lengthy description. Suffice It 10 say that this team of popular peo- pie are seen to excellent advantage in
