AMUsEME NTs.
At the Strand.

In 1.-THE Pride of the Clan" Mary
Pickford's second picture since the
formation Of her own company. there
is return to the familiar character
istic picture which admirers of Miss
Pickford know so we'll. The plot Is
made subordinate to the star, ana the
spectator sees series of scenes IN
which Mary, and Mary alone pre-.
dominates. The story is Scotch, ana
the scenic effects are all we'll worked
out and elaborate in many cases.
AS far as Mary herself is concerned
she is as charming as ever. and gives
full play to all her winning ways ana
smiles so that those who admire Mary
for herself alone can not help but be
pleased with the production.
) AS Marget McTavish, Mary is left
an orphan on Scottish isle, and by
the law of the clan becomes the head
of the people. The diminutive Scotch
lassie rules the people with firm
hand. and fills the Kirk" on Sunday
even tho she has to use the lash to get
the people out. Incidentally she ana
Jamie fall in love- and plight their
troth in novel and spectacular scene
where the betrothal night is ceie-
brated by the whole island. But jamie
is found to be the son OF Lady
DunstaA!e. os Lcnann, and when she
comes and proposes to take jamie
away to a fine life, Marget is broken
hearted. She cuts her little house
boat adrift, and sits down to wait her
fate.
A bad storm comes up. and MarSet
is nearly drowned on her unstable
craft. but jamie comes to her rescue
with Lord Dunstable's yacht, and they
are reunited and happy. The scenes
of the storm and those of the be-
trothal celebration are especially
elaborate and Mary's attempts to be
beautiful form one of the best comedy
situations, altho there is bit OF
pathos in it as we'll. Thru the whole
picture Mary's personality is domi-
nant, which is really what makes the
production worth while.
