Readers familiar with Miss Eliot‘s masterpiece will find the film told. in pictures and in sub-titles, just as she wrote it. Her words will be rec- (ignized in the captions; her char- acters are quickly recognizable in the cast; and the very spirit of her story will be found on the screen. The title roll, which otters splen- did emotional opportunities, is in the hands of Craufurd Kent. Little Helen Rowland plays the waif he' finds asleep on his hearth. and when she is grown up she is portrayed by. Jean Girardin. Anders Randolph is Squire Cass. and Bradley Barker and Charles Coghlan are his sons. Godâ€" frey and Dunstan. Marie Edith “"0115 is Nancy Lalllllit-it'l‘. .lem Rodney is played by Austin Huhn.
