"THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME" Opens at Capitol Theatre To- morrow Night--A Record Breaker. "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," the massive and much heralded flim Production of Victor Hugo's story masterpiece which swept into over- night fame in Toronto and Mont- real, will be given its local premier at the Capitol theatre to-morrow when it begins a limited engage- ment of three days. Never before, it is said, has there been offered a ple- ture production representing so stupendous a cost--$1,500,000-- never a film presentation so exact in its details, so artistic in ite concep- tion, so wonderful in the acting or its seventy-five principals, two hun- dred sub-principals and in the handling of the mob scenes in which more than 3,000 persons take part, Lon Chaney, admittedly the fin- est interpreter of unusual charaotes roles on either stage or screen, plays the stellar part of Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer of Notre Dame, with Ernest Torrence as Chopin, the underworld king; and Patsy Ruth Miller as Esmeralda. Carl Laemmle, who founded Uni- versal City out in Southern Cali- fornia, it is said, has achieved some- thing there which awakens the ut- most admiration. He has taken Hugo's rather turgid melodramatt, novel, and after building a replica of Paris' famous cathedral, he hag retold Hugo's. story in pictures-- vital, vivid pictures that hold the attention and excite admiration by their undeniable power and beauty. The spirit of the story is Quasi- mode, the hunchback, an elemental creatifre, twisted in body and re- stricted in mind, who haunts the great church, Quasimodo, as Mr. Chaney presents him, is said to be a grotesque monster, and yet under the forbidding aspect the actor suc- ceeds in making the character hum- an and pitiful. His daring poses on the projecting gargoyles of the oa- thedral, his bold descent, stone by stone, of the front facade of the great church, his hazardous swing- ing on the great bells at the risk of his life, the gruesome scene of his castigation in the market place and the pathos of his final act as, dy- ing, he rings his own death knell on his beloved bells, are features, it is said, that make "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" the most noted filmy production to date. Among the other principals in the big caste aye: Norman Kerry who plays Phoebus; Tully Marshall, as Louis XI; Raymond Hatton, as Gringeire; Nigel de Bruller, as Don Claude and Gladys Brockville as the crazy Godule. "The Hunchback of Notre Dame' is being presented by the Capitol theatre just as it wae presented in other cities when it was shown at dollar and a half prices. A specia, score written for the production by Dr. Hugo Riesenfeld, the noted New A a a ----------------n--, York impressario, will be rendered by an augmented orchestra under the directorship of Miss M., Teig- | mann. Because of its great cost of pro- duction, it is to be shown at :} slightly increase in price. The price set for Kingston is thirty-five cents AEE for the matinees and fifty cents with a few reserved at seventy-five cents 0 for the evening performances, it will. be shown twice daily, 2.30 and 815. "The English Review." { The English Review for March! contains the first number of '"The: Empire Supplement," which will: henceforth be included every month. | Its object is twofold--to ventilate | questions of Imperial interest, and to render a periodical which reflects English views a more effective link | of common thought and purpose! with the scattered populations 'of | British race overseas. Already such ; numerous promises of assistance | have been received from public men' and writers distinguished in Imper- | fal affairs that the certainty of auth- | oritative contributions is assured. | The English Review has a larger circulation than any similar periodi- | cal of its kind and it is widely quot- ed in the press of Great Britain. It with its Empire Sepplement it gains | new readers and secures the notice | of the press throughout the Domin- | fons, it will be able to assist in the | formation of an I 4 perial public opin- fon. Visitors to Canada have comment- | ed on the fact that, while American | periodicals are ubiquitous, similar English publications are rarely seen. | The English Review, which seeks to uphold British interests throughout the Empire, and to promote closer union of the British race, will help to make good that deficiency. The Review will be posted to any address In Canada for twelve months for $3, which may be remitted in bills, or | by cheque, or by express or money | order. eet Steamship companies serving Ca nadian ports received a total of $1,- 129,625.66 in subsidies from the Canadian Government in the fiscal year just ending. ~ = Amma | To clean your Satin Slippers You can clean and renovate your satin slippers in a few minutes with BeBe Co.

By ELEANOR GUNN PROBS: --Thursday, westerly winds, fair, not much change in temperature. 0 Several variations of the tricorne ere bidding for popularity. When Reboux meade a fourcornered hat and them reduced it to three by eur- tailing the back point, it did seem that the possibilities of this partion- lar mode! had been exhausted. But behold, forthwith came another ver- sionof many flaps, if not actually angles, produced in satin like the original. rm Satin has become a staple between Season, as well as all year-round material. In tete de negre, or black it retains its creditable prestige, whether the crown is sectional or on the order of a stove pipe-cut down before attaining its full growth. Whtle Florida may demand straws, the large majority of the other States ia the union approve of fabric hats, which always are first choice abroad, for milliners have learned the trick of fabric mani- pulsation, at the expense of trim- ming it is true, but why the par- ticular harm in that! There are Seasons in all things €o why not fo. artificial as well as real flowers, for feathers, ornaments and the gev- eral units which go to make a com- posite hat? If i is a feather season, can one complain because flowers are not added for good measure? Just now, ribbons and fabrics are supreme, but there are flowers, if branded so that their heads nod for- ward from a short back trim, which are accepted and curiously enough, flowers of the type which are nox @s a general rule found on hats. Af- ter many seasons of smal flatly ap- | plied flowers or nome at all, it is} rather mice to meet an Easter or a calla Hly, a tulip or crocus, a pond lily or gardenia thriving on a straw | or silken soil. Feather fancies, too, have much to commend them and not since Eve's day surely, have leaves been so important! (Copyright, 1924, Fairchiid.)
