MISS P|CkF0RD IN
 MY BEST GIRL
Americas Sweetheart to Be at Strand Ibeater

Americas sweetheart" Miss Pick ford, is beyond comparison in her latest production, My Best Girl" which opens at the Strand theater Sunday evening. She is cast in an unusual role, quite unlike any of her previous screen accomplish ments.
 "My Best Girl' uses the modern five-and-ten-cent store as the back ground for a comedy. In keeping with the present day demand for humor. Miss Pickford secured the best obtainable staff of specialists to build up every possible opportunity for laugh.
 But comedy alone is not the only unusual feature of the picture. The appeal of an idealstic boy-and- girl romaI.co is utilized. Charles Rogers, the young Famous Players -Lasky sensation, playing the youthful hero. Notable camera effects have been in troduced by Charles Kosher. who has been Miss Pickford's camera man for the past ten years and who spent nearly q year in Germany studying the newest photographic technique for use in the film.
 Kathleen Norris, the author of the original story. used all the human interest and realism of her facilc pen in writing it. and this has been transferred intact to the screen. The

Sidney portrayed the role of Cohen in the first "Cohens and Kellys.' which proved 10 be one of the greatest comedy hits ever filmed. It is said that tens of thousands Of requests for more "Cohcns and kellys' practically compelled the producers. Carl Laemmle, to bring out the adventures of the laughably famous Irish-Jewish firm as a super comedy. If life was made for laugh ter, whoever attends the Lyceum theater either today or Easter Sun day. Easter Monday or Tuesday while 'The Cohens and Kellys in paris' is the attraction, will live a complete life during the run of the picture.
 "The Cohons and Kellys in farls' Is life iammed with whole some human touches of pathos and comedy. Gertrude Astor furnishes 90 per cent of the good looks and Charles Delaney accounts hand- somely for he son of Kelly. The story concerns an Irish and a Jew lsh family who are partners in business, See this show and, you Will want 10 sec it again.

It is doubtful if even Mir Cruze himself realized what a tremendous impression the picture would make upon the minds of the public. 1t is one of the first real American epics of the silent drama. Other produce tons have made us see parts of United States history but this. with it's hard bitten Yankee tars and dauntless fighting men. makes one feel the tremendous bravery and courage of our forefathcrs.
 Although "Old Ironsdes' is for the most part spectacular and grip ping, the love interest is unusually strong. It is contained in a romantic and wholesome story between Esther Ralston and Charles Farrell which stands out like diamond mounted in a setting of hand hammered gold.
 Aside from the colorful love cpl sodes, there are any number of other scenes done with sincerity which is seldom seen. One of the most remarkable is the parting of the players at the end when Esther Ralston, Wallace Becry, Charles Farrell and George Godfrey. the four comrades of George Bancroft, leave him to continue their journey to the China seas aboard the brig, Esther"

petted, and that if did not allow my
boy friends a few kisses would not be
asked to the parties, dances and So
cial affairs that attend now. At the
present time I always have opportuni-
ties for several dates in one evening
and very often l have more than one
date in an evening. Girls in school
who do not pet are wall flowers-they
are not asked to dance and the boys
do not like them.
Anyway, why shouldn't girls pet as
well as boys? Why criticize a girl for
doing what every boy does? At least
1 have never seen one who wouldn't.
For that matter, why is it wrong for
me to make a cigaret? My older
brother comes home at 3 in the morn
ing and people seem to think it's quite
alright and the expected thing and no
one criticizes him, except perhaps my
father who supplies the "dinero."
I firmly believe the modern girl
knows what she is doing-even if she
crosses the boundary line that conven-
ton has drawn, she knows what she
is doing-why then should a mother
of ancient views sit around and look
glum about it. She is probably only
doing what they have secretly wanted
to do all their lives and didn't have
the courage. We have only one life
to live and am all for each individual
living their own and minding their
own business.

MODERN ROMEO's VIEWS

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
Can girl pet? That seems like
a simple query. But Rosie OGrady,
perhaps an ultra modern girl and
can Old Fashioned Mother" do not
agree on the subject. Happily, be-
tween extremes there always is a
fair line of safety II RoSie's picture
of the case be her own, she probably
is parading under a misnomer Sht
might more accurately have signed
herself MY name is Patricia and
the boys all call met PET And
the OFM probably never was the
prim prude she reflects in the mental
mirror today. she cites reference
to Bible guidance, but even thai is
not convincing. She would hardly
ask her daughter to measure her
actions by the third chapter Of the
Songs of Solomon nor would she
urge her son to take the fourth
chapter of the same scripture except
as figures OF speech.
TeStifying as an expert, having
travelled the entire distance from Dan
tc Beersheba and knowing something
of life in all its types, it seems to
me that the picture OF neither Rosie
nor OFM is dependable. They use
too much paint-meaning mental
flourish and not cosmetics-for the
size OF their canvas. And so lar as

good? Some can, without any doubt.
Probably some couldn't. IT they can't
they shouldn't pet. There are per-
sons who can not do two things at
once. Such persons, OF course
couldn't pet and be good at the same
time and they would have to forego
petting. They'd be like girl 1 met
