LORD FU NTLEROY DELIGHTFlTL PICTURE There comes to the Alkrama this week fur a two day run. a phot play that will leave a profound Impression on the audience. It is Mary Pick ford's "Little Lord Faunlleroy." the most appealing and at the same time one of the most perfect photop!?y? ever to pas* through a projecting machine. Her interpretation of the roles of Dearest and Little Lord Fauntlcroy will probably never be approached by anyone in the picture realm. The fine artistry, the deli cate shading, the conviction brought to th*'se widely different parts by Mary Plckford. represent* the urealest achievement of all time in the shadow world. The double exposure feats. where in Miss I'ickford a* Dearest walks with and talks to Miss I'ickford a? Faunlleroy, are astounding. The Hppeal of the slory as written by Frances Hodgson Uurnctt has been accentuated heightened in the filming by Mary. She har endowed each episode with the wealth of her genius, and the spectator actually lives in the era depicted by the play. The story has Us beginning in New York where Cedric Errol Is dlscor* ered fIth his mother In a modern flat. Cedric has his troubles with the boys of the neighborhood, all because of his curls, but finds much comfort in the company of his three cronies, Mrs. McGinty. Mr. Hobbs, and Dick, the bootblack. Although his ambition Is to be President of the United States, the the title of Lord It thrust upon him most unexpectedly by the solicitor for hit grandfather. Earl of Dorin court. who had disowned Cedrlc's father before the lad was born. This ascent to the nubility took the boy! to England where there developed! many amusing an well as tragic In- i cldents which lead to a climax filled with more heartbreak than anything) ever shown on the screen. His three! old cronies, however, finally bring hack to Little Lord Fauntleroy and his grandfather the happiness that had all but gone a-glimuiering.
