Mary- Pickford immortalizes “Mistress Nell” on the Screen! Mary Pickford, the highest salaried motion picture star in the world, de- parts from her usual style of screen interpretation in the latest production of the Famous Players Film Co., a five-part film subject “Mistress Nell,” the internationally famous drama by George C. Hazelton, which is the main attraction at the Auditor- ium Monday and Tuesday on the Par- amount program. Nell Gwyn, the character portrayed by “Little Mary,” is one of the great- est and sweetest of history’s hero- ines. To her fame is added by the as- tonishing success of the drama of ‘which she is the central character, and in the photoplay version of which Miss Pickford even further extends *t: dramatic appeal of the captivating story. The character of 'Nell offers Miss Pic! many interesting opportuni- ties prove her wonderful versatility /S a screen aotress, inusmuch as the portrayal involves not only the de- lineation of Nell, as England’s favor- ite actress, but also that of the dis- guised messenger who is supposed to carry the word-of King Charles’ dis- aster to another crown. In this de- ception Mary Pickford supplies one of her inimitable characterizations, and + her assumption « of the boy's clothes, the first time in ;many years that she has played the part of a boy is refreshingly novel and virile. Among the many admirable sets that comprise the production, one stands out more prominently than the others, excellent as they all are. This is the spacious and gorgeous ball-room of the King’s Palace, and the construc- tion and general beauty of the set is ‘worthy of complimentary notice, even | though it must be remembered that the Famous Players have always maintained the highest standard of the film-producing world -for their set- tings and mechanical adjuncts, Other photoplays will also be shown and the usual three shows daily will be given with the usual prices pre- vailing. DAVIS THEATRE TODAY. Keith Vaudeville and Mutual Master- pictures. Today will be the last chance to see the five-part Mutual Masterpicture called “The Quest’ an American dis- tinctive creation featuring Margarita Fischer, ‘America’s most beautiful and attractive photo-play artist, supported by an all star cast, including Harry Pollard and Joseph Singeleton; the chief scenes of this wonderful pho- to-play are in 'the South Seas and there are many thrilling situations, including the burning of a great ship in the open ocean. “The Quest” brings to the screen a photoplay which, for sheer beauty the theme and setting is without a rival in the his- tory of motion pictures. It is a ro- mance, thrilling, tender, fanciful and 20 inspiring that none can see it without being bettered by it. Mar- garita-Fischer is seen at her best in this _feature. Other photo-plays on this bill are The Hired Girl, a pleas- Ingerural drama by the Majestic com- Majestic favorites, girl in this pic- ture, lke Cinderella, comes into her swn. The comedy is called They Ran For Mayor and it is one of the fun- aiest pictures ever shown.

Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin in Famous Feature Successes. ‘An opportunity is offered the pa- trons of the Colonial ‘theatre today in the shape of a huge success of Mary Pickford’s, entitled, The Twisted Trail, in which little Mary is seen in all of her innocent beauty, delicate art and captivating charm. This drama is one that cannot fail to reach the heart of everyone, and Mary is surrounded by an entirely capable cast, in which are seen many of the old favorites. It is photoplay star, bringing happiness and cheer to all who see it. Charlie Chaplin, quite a different star, but none the less brilllant, is seen today in the two reel comedy hit, A Night Out. This is shown by request for the second time this season, as when shown before it occurfed on a night when Saturday night patrons could not be present.
