Ingenue parts are growing in favor
with those picture people who can
play them, with Mary Pickford lead-
ing off and Lillian Walker until rec-
ently a close second alongside Flor-
ence Lawrence.
But a new star has appeared in the
picture universe, bursting across the
pathway of little Mary like a comet.
Petite Marguerite Clark, of perfect
form and features, a grown woman
though scarcely more than 18 years!
old, Is advertised as being“Mary Pick-
ford’s only rival” and one who sees
the little woman’s ingenuous acting
and child-like naturalness can not fail
to appreciate the truth of the advertis-
ed line. In "The Wlldflower” at Prin-
cess Monday an audience that almost
packed the house in the afternoon
greeted Miss Marguerite Clarks’ first
notable appearance in this village and
she captured all hearts by her sweet
simplicity and the perfection of her
art as a child. If Little Mary’s nose
is not sorely out of joint the first time
she drops into a “movie” to see Mar-
guerite then she will prove to be a
better poised young person than the
average run of beauties.

In spite of the gloomy weather that
marked Christmas day,\ the reception
given by Judge and Mrs. K. K. Leg-
gett was a brilliant affair.
The magnificent reception hall, with
its Christmas greens and bright fire,
held a welcome all its own and added
to that a charming group of beautiful-
ly gowned women, the rise and fall of
sweet voices blending with the strains
of orchestra music, the guests not only
felt welcomed, but delighted. Mes-
