The Filmgoers' Annual I 15 -Starring MARY PICKFORD IN all the wealth of the film world, there is no one who may be compared with Mary Pickford, either with regard to the depth of affection in which she is held, or with regard to the length of time she has retained that affection. Gladys Smith, from Toronto, in Canada, made her first professional appearance on the stage at the age of five in " The Silver King." Her first film appearance was made when she was sixteen, at which age she began her famous series of pictures for Biograph, under the direction of D. W. Griffith, who discovered her. She has, of course, starred in many pictures, but perhaps " Daddy Long Legs," " Pollyanna," and " Stella Maris " are most typical of the work by virtue of which her place in the hearts of filmgoers is unique. In the world of film romance there is only one Mary Pickford and it seems as if there will never be another star who will earn and adorn the title of "The World's Sweetheart."
