Hailiwell SYNOPSIS. It is seldom that a production comes to the screen heralded as widely as "The Little Minister." The novel by James M. Barrie has been greatly read and is one of the classics of modern literature. Its simplicity and naturalness combined with sticng dramatic action makes it a work of art and in preparing a screen version of this story Vitagraph endeavored to adhere closely to the book in an effort to produce a screen classic. The cast was selected because of the particular fitness of each member for the role enacted, and Alice Calhoun was given the star role because she is the life duplicate of the famous fiction character of Lady Babbie. James Morrison is ideal as the little minister. Tbjf production is made as only David Smith could make a production, producing realism, simplicity and charm. The story is intense, dramatic and has many spectacular scenes, but above all is the simplicity of the lives of the poor weavers in the village of Thrums. Matinees Daily 4 P.
