Daddy Long Legs" With
 Mary Pickford at the Strand

Crowds in Birmingham never before crowded theatre in such immense throngs as they did Monday to see Daddy Long Legs" featuring Mary Pickford at the Trianon.
 This picture has broken all records for motion picture theatre crowds and no photoplay offering has struck such pop ular chord in Birmingham. Due to late arrival of the picture, the Trianon thea ire opened at Il o'clock. Immediately the theatre was filled and then began the crowding outside. The crowd, start ing in the lobby soon reached to the sidewalk, then blocked the sidewalk, and many were compelled to stand in the street.. And this condition prevailed throughout the day and evening.
 To say Daddy Long Legs has capti- vated Birmingham, is putting it mildly. It is the biggest photoplay hit ever pre- scented in the city. And of the thou sands who saw this picture Monday, ev- eryone was enthusiastic.

 The proceedings before Judge J. C.. Tucker introduced raiders, deputy sher- ifs, a conspiracy of empire which in volved the capture by Mexicans of the states of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and the southern part of California, sombreros, embroidered riding boots, cattle rustling, sudden and sanguinary raids by Mexican bandits, and a bit of German propaganda in the form of one German iron cross taken from slain Mexican bandit and three ancient Mau- ser rifles, also of Teutonic origin. The story came mainly from Marcus w. Hines, now a customs official at Santa Maria, Tex, and Thomas s. Mayfeld or Pharr, Hidalgo county, Texas, rancher' contractor and land developer. Both Tn 1916 were deputy sheriffs and rangers.
 Other witnesses were Thomas J. Alexander, postmaster and keeper or the general store at Sebastian, IeX.' where he said there were eight Amer ican families before bandits frightened them away, leaving the predominant Mexican residents to hold posseslon' Thomas P.

Daddy Long Legs" her very best photo play, and the Trianon management an- nounced it was the picture with greater appeal than any ever screened. And now Birmingham people are joining in the chorus and making the same deciara- tions.
 Daddy Long Legs" at the Trianon is the same Daddy Long Legs of story and stage, and if anything even more pleasingly interwoven that "Dady Long pleasing. Pathos and comedy are so Legs is loved alike by man and wom- an, child and grown-up. You will love little Judy, played by Mary Picktord You will laugh with her and you will cry with her. The story of Daddy Long Legs" is too well known for repetition here. Suffice to say that it is a picture that has greater human appeal than any ever screened. As the little orphan, Judy Mary Pickford is at her best. She has never appeared in a part that re- motly compares to Judy, and you will say so when you see the picture.
