AUTHOR PRAISES MOTION
PICTURE OF HIS STORY
Robert w. Chambers Delighted
With VItagraph's "The
Girl Philippa"

Even Robert w. Chambers, the
popular author of THE Girl Phil
ippa," praised the manner in
which the Vitagraph Company
produced it, with dainty Anita
Stewart as the star in the title
role of Philippa, under the di-
rectiOn of S. Rankin Drew.
In this production, which is
the headliner at the Bungalo
theatre on Wednesday, May 8,
the characters are admirably
suited to their roles, and in every
instance they seem to be Mr..
Chambers own brain children
who have stepped from the pages
of his novel.
Anita Stewart is more delight
full than ever as Philippa, and she
has created one of the most won
derfui roles ever seen on the
screen, while S. Rankin Drew for
sakes his true identity for that
.of the American artist with ap-
parently no trouble OF effort.
Anders Randolph as the rascally
spy; Wildresse is, as Mr.. Cham
bers expresses it, the character
itself, while Jules COwles lends
much clean humOr as a servant,
"Asticot." Pauline Curley, too,
as the nun, seems to have recent
ly stepped from the secluded
.cloister of some far convent.
With perfect backgrounds, ty-
.pical atmosphere, masterful di-
rection and characters as we'll
suited to their roles as they are
in this case, it is no wonder that
all critics declare the wonder film
has come into being.
