Hart, famous portrayer of western roles in'aPramount pic- tures, has a novel role--sthat of a mil foreman, in his latest picture, The Whistle," which opens at the Strand theatre to-day. Although "The Whistle" is said to be equal to "The Testing Block" and 'O'Malley pt the Mounted," productions which are establishing new records throughout the country, in its pull- fag power, it is not, like these two uctons, a western picture. "The Whistle" deals with an interesting "Phase of industrial life. The story is 'dramatic and the various situations, including a characteristic Hart fist fight, are thrilling.
