The Worlds Sweetheart
In Another Fine Picture

A favorite with most children is
the tender story of Heidi, little
orphan who brings sunshine into
the cloudy lives of others. There
could not have been better choice
for the role than Shirley Temple; no
longer baby, poised and assured as
an actress, but still retaining her
famous warmth and charm, the
greatest little star of them all has
made this her best picture to date,
Twentieth Century has spared moth
ing in production or in the support
ing cast, SO that there is almost
no fault to find with any portion OF
the film.
Shirley, in this, is brought by 6
vicious aunt to live with her grand
father, dour and embittered ole
recluse played by Jean Hersholt
He has forsaken the world and Goo
alike because of disappointment
his son caused him, but by hel
| fortnight manner and innocen
sweetness Shirley induces him t.
soften his attitudes. Then the aun
reappears, snatches the child away
to be the companion of little Grip
pied girl in Frankfort. Shirley want
to help the unfortunate girl blu
/ primarily she longs for her beloved
grandfather. Meanwhile he ha
come searching for her--and thi
becomes a chase, fraught with ex
citement and suspense.
Marcia Mae Jones does excellen
and convincing work as the ricl
cripple, Mary Nash is magnificen
as the horrid governess, and Arthu
Preacher does his butler routine
There are two numbers for Shirley
lingeniously included: I'm Our Littl
Wooden Shoes and charmin
lminuet. Showing at the Kootena
theatre Sunday and Monday.
