However, his schedule makes it impossible to retain it after tonight. . “POLLYANNA” AT REX THEATRE ON SATURDAY ‘When thousands upon thousands of people start to play the same game, a game that is unusual in its every de- tail, and yet quite simple, one nat- urally becomes interested. The game of “Pollyanna,” in other words, the game of being “glad,” has swept this country from coast to coast and iy has gotten such a stronghold upon the people that they have gone so far as to exclaim that “If there was a ‘Pollyanna’ in every household, we would, in time, be able to close half of our hospitals and reformatories and sanatoriums—half of our medical schools and drug stores and we would put half of our physicians and Jaw- yers out of practice.” For that reason, Mary Pickford, who will appear in the screen ver- sion of “Pollyanna” at the Rex the- atre on Saturday, was recently ask- ed to talk about this wonderful “glad game.” This picture is Miss Pick-| ford’s first independently produced picture for United Artists corpora- tion. N | “Pollyanna’ is playing a game,” remarked Miss Pickford, “and the ‘glad game’ doesni mean that we are to rejoice that we have a broken leg or because people are starving some- | where, or because there was a war. No one but s idiot would smile over evil. Noyit just means that we are to look around and to find the .things that there are to be glad about and to make, the most of those. #“Do you know what I think is the most besutiful scene in ‘Pollyanna?’ It is ‘where she goes to John Pendle- Washburn was scenarized by Tom ! technically trained young men to fill| Geragherty: X X | edy telling of a tightwad who reforms | the engineering profession. amd finally cast off the opprobious nickname of “Burglar Proof™ newest Paramount will be shown at the Thursday and Friday. cause of recent development in the, Robert Ellis has an important science of road construction as it is| role in the supporting. cast, and he|now practiced, and the still later de- also officiates in the capacity of di-|velopment of automotive and trans-| rector.

Not many years ago the prizes of the pig world went to the round, short- legged type, the kind of hog that you couldn’t see under. The chief purpose in the life of that hog was to turn corn into lard. - Now it's the pig type that is popular, the pig that makes more lean meat, more bacon and more ham., ~ \ What has done it? For one thing the Chinaman and his soy bean, coco- naut, corn, cottonseed and peanut are furnishing a vast amount of lard sub- stitutes at prices lower than the pig cun supply his product. So the four- legged lard factory is turning to the ham business and the Chinaman, his shirt tail unlengthened, has added to the legs of the American hog. | ‘This comedy-drama Elko next neering mechanics at Yale.

The shortest day, December 21, is dedicated to Saint Thomas, and con- fers upon the offspring the right, if, they can find the opportunity, to lock up their parents in the cellar or else- where, liberating them only on solemn promise of a ransom, which may take ‘cents day, the children have the privilege of “wearing their parents’ clothes, and adding thereto parental authority. The young people become real bosses, practically taking the place of father and mother, giving or- ders and acting generally as masters and mistresses of all the domestic ceremonies. . @ Christmas in Belgium is more of a religious than a general festival. True, business is suspended to a large extent, but retail establishments re- main ‘open, places of amusement are in full ‘blast, and the only family foregatherings .are those that take} place at church. Not till New Year's day does the Belgian let himself go right to full bent. But there are no half-measures| that day! Rounds of family, visits in the morning, with unlimited tots of spirits as each one of them are fol- lowed by a bully repast of a dozen courses; an afternoon walk, games at cards, or visit to the theatre, tea at the house of a relative, and a full evening’s, or-rather night’s, jollifica- tion at the house of the oldest member of the family. Presents are ex- changed on New Year’s Eve, after which ceremony it is usual to see the old” year out and the new year in, either at church, or at a ball, or at a public or family supper, or even in the relative quietude of the family circle. = Exhausted with the exertions of such a strenuous New Year start, it is but natural that the second day of the year should be kept as a public holiday, likewise. Generally speal- ing, the second of January in Belgium corresponds _approximately to Box- ing day in England. Should the day happen to fall on Monday, no Belgian workman should think /of doing any work, however urgent, drinking be- ing the first consideration on the first Monday of the year. It is the one day of all the 365 that drunkenness is anyway noticeable in this country. Belgians leave church and make a bee-line for the nearest saloon.
