Hogan Rice's successful novel of the
same name. The production affords
the star, Jack Pickford, another
such delightful role as those that
have contributed to make him IA
nous in his particular field. This
time he is seen as Sandy. a Scotch
lad gritty. resourceful. who comes
TO this country as a stowaway in
search of his fortune. How he finds
the girl of his choice on the steam
ship and loves her, when after being
hailed from his hiding place she
throws him an orange and a smile of
sympathy, makes a story Of delight
full and romantic heart interest
The later scenes of the story are laid
in old Kentucky. the blue grass re-

fast horses hold sway. Louise HUFF
