STRAXD THKATRE. : The aniioiincement that Mary Plckforo" will lie se.-n .it the .-'tranrl Theatre, liesinHim: to-morrow, in "The I.lslit." a L'in..:i..iKii drama, is one that is iouiid to prove of sreat interest to her llinii<aml> of admirers. Since the "World's Sweetheart" amiouu.-ed her policy of avoiding the ■Miuventi'iiial and hackneyed forms of photoiday, and try not only to advance herseir '.:u the motion picture Industry as well, lier productions have aroused neiv and unusual interest iuiioiil' the patrons. ■"The Love I.lubt" Is the story of v little Italian Kir! in an Italian flshlng vlllace anions the ellfTs Jmrderins on the Mediterranean in N.iriiiesn Italy. How the little Klrl i.resides i.ver the family of her orphaned .iirothers. how a sreat trageily .■omes into lie.- life, the final realisation .with Its aecompanylii); sn.'rltl.-e. makes not liinly an unusual story for ,the screen, lint Is a startling iuiiovation for Mary PK-kford lirrself.
