and Market Sts., Philadelphia, the
week Of May 80. ,fre.-- +t-4a ..t
nJInusual interest is being manifes-
ted in this new presentation for many
reasons. Chief among these is the keen
desire of the picture goers to see the
Wdnaet1 boy of the screen in his initial
starring behicle which is said by those
whose pleasure it has been to witness
1t in previews, to give him even broad
ef opportunities for his. marvellous tai
ent than those he displayed in the
famous Chaplin picture, "The Kid"
THE Peck film is in full fivedreel
5onedy form. Irwin s. Cobb dadded
many gigglesn to it through editing
and titlihg the films. Mr. Cobb spent
two weeks with j ackie in Los Ang-
dles and issued a tribute via the news
papers throughout the country, in
favor of lJaekie'S art. The subject is
the work of Sam Wood, Lasky direc-
tor who was loaned by Famous Play

those who saw Jackie Coogan in
1.-THE Kid and predicted that he would
be star without Chaplin may feel
PERSONALLY assured after seeing" Peck's
Bad Boy" Whatever any one may
think of the picture, all will admit
Chat this youngster is wonder. Not
only is he the .mischievous fun-loving
hoy, but when a few tears are de-
mapded, and there are one or two
spots, that call for the sob stuff,
Jackie goes to. it in the most natur-
al manner. Many a tear he will bring
with his touch of pathos when they
are taking his dog off in the dog-cat-
chers' wagon. All the time it must be
remembered that he is only six-years
old. A baby, nothing more than that
may be the, answer to his naturalness
and his unassuming manner.
