BRITISH NAVY PICTURES
AND ENGLISH COMEDY

The LaSalle's program today con-
sists of the excellent reels of British
navy scenes. including the making
of the big guns, and a comedy-drama
of England and America. Violet
Mersereau is the big-eyed, golden
hair star of the fiction story and she
romps through the five reels with
plenty of life and spirit. Of all the
film players who assume little girl
roles Mersereau is one of the most
naturally fitted for such parts. In
this play, 'Susan's Gentleman she
is a typical Peg o. My Heart" and
hangs onto her brlndle pup, and tat
tered suitcase even when restored
TO her English estates. The scenes in
the slums of New York are nicely

mansion and the story has enough
