TRUE CONDITIONS SHOWN IN
NEW PICK FORD PICTURE
A vivid idea of the true cause for
patriotism on the part of every Am
erican in connection with the' great
world war can be had from the new
Mary Pickford-Arteruft picture, "The
Little American", now appearing at
the Arcade theatre. In producing this
subject Cecil B. Pe Mille, the genius
of screencraft. based his play on act
ual facts and carefully avoided ex
aggeration so often p-tminent in
films of this nature. Every detail
was stuped only after it had received
the endorsement of an authority nnd
various experts on matter pertaining
to the great war, wore called in to
collaborate in tho presentation of dif
ferent scenes. As a result the picture
has been named as the most faithful
reproduction of true conditions, by
many who arc in a position to judge.
