MARY PICKFORD RETURNS no
WILDWOOD IN NEW PICTURE

-
The feature this week at Bakers is
Mary Pickford in Through the Back
Door" 1t is Our Mary's" return to
the hearts of picture fans. The pic
ture is directed by Mary's brother,
Jack, and he made a good job of it.
The story deals with a little girl who
is left with a Belgian nurse in Europe
while her mother goes to live with a
second husband in America. The hus-
band keeps persuading the mother not
to return for the little girl, who is
living with her nurse on a Belgian
farm. Finally, when the mother makes
up her mind to bring the child to
America, the nurse has become so fond
of her that she can't bear to give her
up and tells the mother that she is
dead. Five years later Jeanne" the
little girl, leaves for America when the
Germans invade Belgium, with the
confession of her nurse, witnessed by
the parish priest. Arriving in Amer
lea she finds it is very hard for a
rather shabby little girl to secure an
audience with a wealthy lady, so she
takes a position as maid in her own
mothers home, and after many at
temps succeeds in making herself
known.
The contraction is Harold Lloyd
IN NOW or Never" his latest three
reel comedy release. 1t is a scream
ingly funny comedy.
