' In fact, he didm't /know what he was against until the stalwart star had a firm grip on his ‘proboscis and ‘was:in the “iact of tweaking. ' Then he cried something like “Ouch!”—a bit'of realism that made the director happy—and grasp- ed the reddened 'member in both hands § m-munsnu AND !'RIDAY The nplm of the entire commun-= ity through the faith and belief that «Jove is stronger than hate,” on the part of one little girl plays an im- portant part in “Polly of the Storm' Country,” in_which Mildred Harris Chaplin ‘will ‘be seen’fn"Her second First National Exhibitor's Circuit at- traction beginning at the Rex- the- atre. .
