The exquisite photography and appealing | {pathos of -the story of old Ni ppon, { make this production the artistic triumph of the year. Much of the | action of the story is in the Hanake | Mountains in 'Japan, and-these scenes | were filmed in the Yosemite Valley | justly famous for ite renzarkable | natural beauty. "Marie, Ltd," is the {title of another big Select production that is playing the same dates, and ie for its star the well known mo- | tion picture actress, Alice Brady. The picture is a fascinating one, and cer- {tain to hold the interest of the most | blase theatre goer. The story is cen: { tered about the hat shop of "Marie, { Ltd," one of the exclusive establish- | ments on Fifth Avenue, and offers | Miss . Brady many opportunities. for her excellent acting. Many exciting | intidents follow each other in quick succession, which brings the picture {to a happy ending.

Chee. captivating Mae Murray, the | maidl of many moods, is the star at- | traction at Griffin's for today, Tues- | { day and Wednesday, in "The A.B.C, of Love," a drama of -love's begin- | ning, with the X. Y. Z. of love aj Imoment of delight and joy. "The A.} | B. C, of Love," ys full of spice, whim- | sicality and rare delight, with beauti- | | ful Mae Murray, a capricious country | girl of naive innocence at the open- ling of the story, and a sadder and wiser young matron at the close, who {is forced to match her wits with a { worldly actress who heartlessly | trifles with the girl's husband to satisfy her own selfish desires. The | dainty star is happily cast in this | story, for it permits her to run the gamut of emotions from sweet inno- cence to jealousy, and grief and rage. The story introduces her in rags and then transforms her into a social but- terfly wearing gowns that are charm- ingly girlish and daringly sophisti- cated by turns. In addition to the above feature, Harold Lloyd will be seen on the same programme, in the second of his $100,000 comedies, "Captain Kidd's Kids," which is equal in every respect to the high standard set by "the different come- dian" in his previous pictures. The interesting "Topics of the Day" 'finish a "programme which would be hard to surpass for genuine entertainment and cannot fail to please Griffin patrons --Advt. A Perfect Motion Picture. The Strand Theatre will present this Monday - Tuesday - Wednesday what is considered by experts to be one of the most perfect motion pic- tures yet made. The story. is of a marriage of convenience adapted from "Her Kingdom of Dreams," by Louise Provost, which was published in "The People's Home Journal." The film was directed by Marshall Neilan, who recently made Mary Pickford's "Daddy Long Legs." Cri- tics state that it .is almost impossible to pick a flaw in the wonderful act- ing, while settings, photography and scenic effects, particularly those showing the logghmggn Pacific north- west, are magnificent. It is a First National attraction.--Advt, NO GOVERNMENT BILL UPON PROHIBITION Two~Thirds Majority Measure Will Have To By - Private Members. - (Canadian Prose Desi ateh) Ottawa, Feb. ate is no likelihood of a Won bill this session to amend the Prohibition Act of last session so as to require | two-thirds majority before action is taljoh ow the provincial reférendum, it is authoritatively stated here.
