PATRICIA COLLNGE
IS real POLLYANNA
Star of Glad Girl Play Dispenses
Optimism to Followers.

In recent years the movie actor
and actress, with their audiences Of
FIVE to fifteen million. have taken a
place in the public mind as having
the biggest correspondence outside
the Rockefellers. But Patricia COL
hinge, who plays the glad girl in
"Pollyanna," which comes to the
National Theater February 4, Is an
exception among actresses of the
stage when 1t comes to a
question of correspondence.
Miss Collinge has an audience
almost as large as that of the movie
actress. She has won the interest
not only of the hundreds of thou
sands of men. women and children.
who have seen the delightful play
which Mrs. Catherine Chisholm
Cushing has written. but she has
also an additional audience running
into millions who have read Mrs.
Eleanor H. Porter's books from
which the play was made.
To the reader OF the books as well
as admirers Of the play, Pollyanna
is really nothing more nor less than
Miss Patricia Collinge. Her photo
graph Is to be found on the walls
of the club Of nine-tenths of the
famous Pollyanna Clubs which
have been established throughout
the country. And with most of these
folk. young and old. Miss Collinge
Is constantly in correspondence.
To all the young girls Miss Col
hinge is a combination of fairy god
mother and confidential adviser.
Some of the letters she gets are
quite as amusing as the one in her
hand in the accompanying illustra-
tion. One high-spirited woman who
saw the. play in Philadelphia this
season wrote to Miss Collinge not
long ago:
'I belong to q Pollyanna Club
here" she said, and I am trying
with others to make other people
happy. But how can I be happy
myself when I have fallen down
the steps and sprained my ankle SO
badly that my daughter has to wait
on me constantly"
That's easy" was Miss Collinge's
comment, "Pollyanna answers her.
self, and she wrote back: BE glad
you didn't break your ankle and
that you have a daughter to wait
on you"

Moore's Garden-"The winding
Trail.'

The outstanding feature of the week
of February at Moore's Garden The

production ''The Winding Trail" in
which Viola Dana is pictured In the
role Of prime Importance. In this sub
ject the popular star Of many film
plays that have attained wide popu-
larity is said to have the best role of
her career before the camera and to

the further advantage of exceptional
photography and skillful direction.

Miss Janis has made the Atlantic
trip five times since the beginning
of the war and she has never seen

the fated Lusitania on the last trip

some other inconsiderable thing"
Although Miss Janis was In London
for months doing songs anG charac-
terizations for the entertainment of
the wounded British soldiers, she says
that Zeppelin would be quite as
strange a sight to her as a submarine.

counts OF Yep raids over London" /"

Miss Janis is booked to sail for
France within the next few weeks,
where she will entertain the SOL
diers OF the allies.

she said, rs going into some camp

When our Elsie comes home from

dark secret that no one has heard
before-she is going to stop do

I'D never have the nerve to do

right from musical comedy into a
light drama. I'm afraid people would
come and look me over and say,
shed better get her lariat and go
back to the Century
But / think that IL I stay over
on the other side for a year or so,
maybe my friends will be so glad to
see me when / come back that
they'll boost my first attempt in the
more or less serious drama"
