i
"Pollyanna," "the glad girl," Is coming- among us to spread the gospel of
good cheer, and warm the hearts of those who think the world is out of kilter,
and getting harder and harder for him to live in who thinks, talks and walks
straight. ,
"Pollyanna" is the flesh and blood wc like—not because she is the high
and mighty, or any of the other things the world kow-tows to and runs
alter; but because she is human and kind and glad She readies one's heart
as the sun reaches the fields and trees to make tlieni live and glow Theie
are cross-currents, to bo sure, as must be where romance, tragedy and comedy
are distilling the essenco that give flavor to a play, but over all and through
it all is the dominant note of "Pollyanna's" unselfish creed, which stirs up
wells of feeling that are seldom touched. Welcome to "Pollyanna." and may
she live long and prosper, with apologies to our joyous friend Van Winkle.
"Pollyanna" will be seen at the Orpheum Theater, matinee and night Satur
day, April 21.

At the comedy is concerned, for
Mujestlc every act on the bill is good

pany, one of vaudeville's cleverest
trios, who offer a singing, talking and
dancing melange called "A llappy Com

excellent work on the flying trapeze;
t'ecile Weston and Company, in a pleas
ing singing and piano offering; Moon
and Morris, clever novelty dancers, and
Mahoney and Rogers, introducing &
bright song and patter skit. A musical
comedy "girl" act, with twelve people,

this attraction are: Fred Corelli and

Marie Sparrow, dainty singing comedi
enne; Kane and Herman, in a comedy
variety turn, and Charles Rice and
Company, presenting a comedy playlet,
entitled "The Spirit of Preparedness."
The sun shone benevolently upon the
old, romantic garden in Mecca. The birds
fluttered about the
"Aladdin From stone fountain playing
Rroadway" t merrily into the great
the Colonial basin.
In the garden stroll
ed the daring American with tlie girl
whose love he had won—the girl who
was considered the flower of woman
hood of all Mecca. The natives resent
the foreigner's entrance into their life
and learning he is in the garden, they
attempt to force the great door and
when this fails scale the wall.
Realizing her sweetheart's danger,
the girl hastens to hide him In the old
well, which has not been used in years,
and whose rope is rotten from age.
Getting into the old bucket, he per
mits her to lower him into the round,
stone foundation of the well until the
men have left.
In order that the rope loolc old it
was necessary for it really to be rot
ten, but Antonio Moreno, who plays
the American, was willing to lisk
safety for the realism of "Aladdin
From Broadway," the Vitagraph Blue
Ribbon feature, co-starring him in the
title #role with Edith Storey and Wil
liam Duncan, showng at the Colonial
Theater to-day and to-morrow. "Lone
some Luke's Lively Life," a screaming
two-reel comedy, and the latest Pathe
News, will be the added attraction of
the program. Coming. Monday, Tues
