SEND FOR CATALOG. MICA NON-BREAKABLE SLIDE CO. 2737 N. Craskey St. PHILADELPHII, PA. THE MOVING PICTURE NEWS 21 THE WAIF A Heart-Interest Story of City and Country Life Filmed byThe Imp Company It is quite a far call from the squalid tenement districts ofNew York to the fresh, pure atmosphere of the country,with its fields of waving grain, fruit-laden orchards and fresh,invigorating air, but the Imp Company has produced a story—The Waif—in which the transformation is brought aboutwith fidelity to facts, locale and general conditions—even tothe minutest details. It is a story that touches the heart—a satisfying tale told. in a simple, convincing manner—with pathos, and teemingwith situations that will interest. The pastoral scenes arelaid on the grounds of a public institution, a fresh-air farm,where the children from the city are taken during the heatedperiod, cared for and given a chance to breathe the fresh air,as the Creator intended. These scenes are genuine, as thephotographs will show, the kiddies enjoying them-selves on the playground and at the swimming hole. Thereare hundreds of children actual dwellers on the grounds. The story is a beautiful one concerning a hardened oldfarmer, bitter at the world in general-because his only daugh-ter has married against his wishes. The daughter is dis-owned despite the protest of the doting mother. How shegoes to the city, is widowed and her boy finally finds a homewith his grandparents is an unique as well as a pathetic storythat will be enjoyed by all classes of amusement lovers.
