artistic photoplay from the master
hand of the peerless one, D. w. Crit

Griffith cast of the lovely Clarine
Seymour, Loyola O'Conner, Robert
Harron, others of note.
"TrueIHeart Susie" will appear at
the Grand tonight and tomorrow, at
the usual hours, and at present regu-
lar prices of 10 and 20 cents.
Again entirely eliminating the war,
the art of Griffith speaks the Ian
guage of the heart in this feature.
All of the happy touches of the Grit.
fifth genius are in evidence. Again
and again he reveals his insight into
every corner of the human heart. His
power of visualizing the hidden
trifles in our lives and making his
heart appeal through them shines
forth brilliantly in "True-Heart
Susie" His selection of types is in
comparably clever, unfailing. The
photography stands out by reason of
its cleanness and absolute finish of
detail
