'As Peppina, the boundless scope of Mary Pickford's art js illustrated in her delineation of the various roles of the child of wealthy Americans kid- napped by Italians ana made to work in a Sicillan vineyard, a _stowaway disguised as a boy, a newsie, a boot- black, a fruit vender, an emplove of an oplum den, a messenger boy, and finally, the restored millionaire's deaughter who comes into her own. ‘With this diversity of atmosphere and interest and with its many dramatio and amusing epjsodes. Poor Little Peppina will_undoubtediy be accepted a3 one of Miss Pickford's foremost triumphs. On the bill also will be the sixth episode of Ths Mysteries of Myra and another of the Napollan the Great and Sally His Mato animal comedies. The Norwich Preparedness Parade plctures will be shown today and to- morrow for the last time and all who can should avail themselves of opportunity to see them.
