FAUNTLEROY THE
PICTURE SUNDAY
STORY OF THE LITTLE BOY
WHO HATED STUCK UP
RICH PEOPLE.
MARY PICKFORD, PLAYS DUAL
ROLE OF MOTHER AND
~" HER OWN SON.

Mary Pickford as boy in that ia
vcrite of the children, little Lord
Fauntleroy' will be the picture at the.
Turner Theatre next Sunday evening.
So popular has this picture been where
ever shown that Manager Gould thinks
it will be best to give an extra SHOW
ing and there will therefore be Sun
day matinee, two evening shows and
and evening show Monday. The mat
inee is at the usual hour Of three, the
evening show It and 9 on Sunday
and at 7:30 Monday.
Mary's Dual Role.
One only needs to mention Little
Lord Fauutlercy" to the present gener-
alton of grown-ups to bring back to
them memories of happy days when as
children they hugged themselves in
ecstacy over the story of the dear little
lad and his Dearest" And Mary
Pickf ord, of all the screen stars, is the
one who can play this role to perfec-
ton. Another element Of interest is
to be found in the fact that Mary
plays not only the little lord, but she
takes the part of dearest" as we'll.
There is always a certain amount Of
curiosity to see how stunt of this
sort can be successfully accomplished.
One thing is sure, Mary can do it.
Once more Miss Pickford proves her.
self great actress, one big enuf to
play the mothers part and heart, one
tiny enuf to play the child.
The touching appeal, the quaint, fine
humor of the story, the wonderful art,
the exquisite beauty CT the entire pro-
duction will leave feeling of entire
satisfaction among the picture fans
who want really, truly, worthwhile
pictures. The mothers Of New Ulm
must see it. The little children should
not be cheated of the chance to live
with and know their little hero Faunt-
leroy.
The Story Reviewed.
1t seems foolish to tell our patrons
the story of Fauntleroy but perhaps
the years have been so full that some
of the magic of this child classic has
dimmed since childhood and a few
words will recall the main points and
make the seeing of the. picture more
interesting. The hero Cedric and his
mother dearest" live in New York,
in such circumstances that it is very
hard for them to get along. The boys
father who was the son of an English
nobleman was disinhe tied for marry
ing dearest" and there is no chance
Of any help from the lads rich grand
father but one day things happen in
England that make it necessary for
the old grandfather to recognize his
grandson. The story is then trans
ferred across the seas and the little
boy begins the task of making a hui
man being out Ct his cold hearted
parent.
A Happy Ending.
Woven thru the story is the friend
ship If d wonderful big dog, and then
come many other characters, some
friends, some enemies of the little lcrd,
and of course the story ends as all
stories must when they are made for
children, in the entire happiness of the
good people and the confusion of the
wicked ones.
The Special Attraction.
A spot light number to match up
with the picture will be furnished
by little Alice Bong and Ruth
Wichersk who will give a dance. Those
who have seen these little ladies and
those who have not will be equally |
anxious to be there when they come or.
The comedy has not yet been de-
cided upon because at this writing we
do not know how many reels there
will be of the special feature. But
comedy, or no comedy, the show will
be splendid one and any person who
misses it will miss real treat.
No advance in admission prices, 10 |
and rs cents as usual. Remember,
three shows. "
Yours for wholesome entertainment, |
adv. JAY GOULD.
