THE STRAND

The Shine Girl, the Pathe Gold Roos-
ter play which the Strand theatre will
present today and Thursday, is said by
q motion picture authority to be one OF
the eight great pictures he has seen In
the last six years. 1t is in many ways
like that other Gold Rooster play, Little
Mary Sunshine, which has already made
fortune.
The Shine Girl has been described az
1.-THE Peg-O'-My-Heart" Of the screen.
In it, Gladys Hulette plays Mary
Pickford part with such charm as to
bring from The New York Morning
Telegraph this comment: "Gladys HUI
lette is the little philosopher and
her work Is Joy"
The dingy depths of a shoe-shinins
basement hold 5000 feet of sunniness.
The Shine Girl, while shining shoes
with her little hands, polishes UP
the grouchy and brooding souls with a
cheerful word and smile.
The part she eventually plays in the
destinies of four people is an important
one, and watching the sympathetic
enactment of the story, you will cry Q
little, laugh lot and then say: That's
the kind of picture / like to see."
In the story, the little girl steals a
loaf of bread for a hungry friend. She
is caught. A kind, young Judge of the
children's court makes her see that she
should not take what doesn't belong to
her. Later he is about to run away
with another mans wife. She asks him
If he meant what he said, when he told
her that people shouldn't steal What
could he answer?

When Frankness Hurts.

Candor and frankness are such beau

ever be allowed to degenerate into
mere bluntness. Sincerity can be kind

into a sort of bludgeon with which to
beat down and destroy. Frankness
makes the truth a helping hand held
