Critics everywhere assert that
'Poiiy%nna' is one OF The greatest
.liG,uyc plays ever filmed. The reason
fer THIS is that the philosophy upon
"hiuh The sto.y is based constitutes
= theme which at the present time
has an unusually wide appeal. This
.,rodu~tion will bc the feature ut the
strand tncalcr, Saturday, April -,
from II \. III. to IL 4. NJ. Tor colOrcd
Jropl9 especially the school children.
Undoubtedly Mary Pickiord with
rharacieristic farsigh tcdnCSS, had
this in mind when she chose this
celebrated work us her first vehicle
;cr the United Artists Corporation.
There is Il great craving ut the
present time on the part Of the pup
lie, according to best informed show
r,cn, for something more than mere
entertainment. or course, diversion
i, always the paramount thing when
amusement is considered, but at the
same time people want something biz
and compcilng-something that will
drive home a few truths without
NJ cahcing Il sermon or spelling tho
flavor Of IL show meant to entertain.
Such a story Is 'pollyanna" with It's
cheerful philosophy OF gladness. It
Is believed that this production,
coming at time when the country
Is upset by Il period OF REIMBURSEMENT,
will have an unprecedented receipt
ion from the picture patrons.
Miss Pickford points out in this
story that even when things are bad
they might be worse. This thought.
planted in the minds Of people who
arc dissatisfied with wage conditions.
or who think they are not getting
fair price for their goods, will tend
ia stimulate line of mental activi
~ which will result In 'stabilizins con
ditions. The most progressive Of. the
picture stars believe in choosing plays
wherever possible, which will act as
il propaganda OF good. 1t Is their
ambition to have each screen medium
serve IL definite purpose and with
this in mind Mary PiCl1ford decided
to picturize Eleanor II. Porter's fam
GUS book. So "Pollyanna'' is a picture
with mission.
Every pupil OF any colored school
in Richmond will be admitted to see
this picture, day or night, for II
cents while adults will be charged
only 25 cents this being the first
time feature production of this
character has ever been offered for
the exclusive entertainment OF color
ed people anywhere ut prices to be
charged 1t the Strand.
