MARY PICKFORD'S GREATEST PLAY \ Critics everywhere assert that "Pollyanna" is one of the greatest picture-plays ever Aimed. The reason for this is that the philosophy upon which the story is based con- " stituted a theme which at the present time has an unusually wide appeal. This production will be the feature at the Rialto theater today aftd tomorrow. Undoubtedly Mary Pickford, with characteristic far-sightedness, had this in mind when she chose this celebrated work as her first vehicle for the United Artists' Corporation. There is a great craving at the present time on the part of the public, according to best informed showmen, for something more than mere entertainment. Of course, diversion is always the paramount thing whenever amusement is considered, but at the same time people want something big and compelling?somethine that will drive home a few truths without preaching a sermon or spoiling the flavor of a show which is meant to entertain. Such a story is "Pollyanna," with its cheerful philosophy of gladness. It is believed that this production, coming at a time* when the country is upset by a period of readjustment, will have an unprecedented reception from the picture patrons. Miss Pickford points out in this story that even when things are bad # they might be worse. This thought, planted in >the minds of people who are dissatisfied \yith wage conditions, , or who think they are not getting a fair price for their goods, will tend to stimulate a line of mental activity which will result in stabilizing conditions. ? The most progressive of the picture stars believe in choosing plays, wherever possible, which will act as a propaganda of good. It is their ambition to have qgch screen medium serve a definite purpose, and with this in mind Mary Pickford decided to pieturize Eleanor H. Porter's famous book. So "Pollyanna" is a picture with a mission. CONGRESSIONAL N CAMPAINGN ML'LUNGS FOR UNION COUNTY Tuesday, August 3, Jonesville, 7 p. m. Wednesday, August 4, Kelton, 3 p. m. Wednesday, August 4.
