Miss Pickord's first appearance on the legitimate stage was a nute one. She was too young when she made her debut to manage any lines. But in a later stage produc- tion she was given lines to speak and became a full-fledged actress of the time. Her frat appear- ance in films was Also, neces- sarily, a silent one. She could talk, but the screen could not. It was the screen's own infancy that' prescribed action without words. But now, thanks to the mechanical progress of modern pletures, she can express herself in the double dimensions of sight and sound, for she will talk on the screen ini "Coquetté,"

To hark back to the beginning of Mis Pickford's career, her debut on the legitimate stage.Pink place at the age of five. She par- trayed a little boy, as "Cissy" in "The Silver King." This took place also under the auspices of The Valentine Stock Company at Toronto.

As "Cissy." Miss Pickford was just led on the stage by the haml of a boxom and determind woman playing the role of the mater.
