DelMille's "Feet of Clay," the feature attraction at the Capitol Theatre, Monday, Tuesday and Wed- nesday, this screen play has retain- ed all the modernity, zest and flavor which made Margaretta Tuttle's novel one of the reigning "best sel- lers." The principal characters are Rod La Rocque (Kerry Harlan), Vera Reynolds, the new DeMille "find," (Amy Loring), Julia Faye (Bertha Lansell), Ricardo Cortez (Tony Channing), Robert Bdeson, (Fergus Lamsell), Theodore Kosloff (Ben- dick) and Victor Varconi. : The initial beach scenes at Cata- lina, punctuated by a thrilling race by twenty beautiful girls on surf- boards behind fast speedboats, end in a wedding between Amy and Kerry on the huge Lansell yacht, en route back to New York. Bertha Lansell, half-sister to Amy, also in- terested in Kerry, outs off Amy's al- lowance. In New York, the poor efficiency engineer is a wall-flower at a gor- geous dance given by Bertha, A dance by Tony 'with his wife drives Kerry to the floor, a dance, collapse and the doctor's verdiot that death menaces him if he touches his foot to the ground within a year, Amy beqomes a model in the establish- ment of Bendiek. Then starts the play of two power- ful dramatic forces. Harlan, help- less, knowing his tired wife néeds recreation, i¢ frantic, as Tony Chan- ning appears with his invitations. On the other hand, Amy comes home at lunch to find Bertha Lansell with her husband. This situation brings the young couple to a misunderstanding. Dis- aster impends. And thenin a novel and drematic manger DeMiile brings "Feet of Clay" to a fitting climax. You have seem so-called screen novelties galore, but you've never peen the real thing until you take in this picture. It's done in true De Mille style and more than measures up to the best thing he has ever done, : "THE SEA HAWK." The "Sea Hawk," which is sche duled to open a wéek's engagement at the Capitol Theatre commencing Dec. 8th, is undoubtedly one of the epics of the soreen, and nothing ap- pro its handling of naval stenes has ever before been attempt- ed on such a gigantic scale, Four ships were especially adapted for the production, and they provide g mag- nificent spectacle as they either sail or are propelled over the waves vy the hundreds of galley slaves and engage in realistic battles with pir- aAtes and corsairs, The scenes in Bugland in the time of Elizabeth, and in the Algerian slave markets to "which the fair Rosamund is brought are also striking and domi- nating as is the gallant Sir Olver who becomes the hawk of the sed when forced from the slavery of the galleys. Milton Sills, in the role of the hero, does some exceptionally fine acting. Throughout he gives the impression of the ideal type for the story. ° "WAY DOWN EAST." "Way Down Bast," D. W. Grif- fith's human epic of the silver sheer, will be shown at the Strand theatre to-day for the last time, Those who have never been fortunate enough to see it will without doubt avail them- selves of the opportunity of seeing it again, while those who have not seen it are urged to do 80, as this will positively by the last showing fa Kingston this season.

Why the Mikado ? The Kiwanis Club in presenting "The Mikado" to the people of Kingston have a three-fold object: first, like their carnival last sum- mer, to give the public popular, high- class entertainment and good value for their money; second, to encour- age and produce jecal talent, which in the Mikado will prove a pleasing surprise; and, third, to raise funds to render Kiwanis service to those who need it, especially under-pri- viliged_boys. The poor of the city, ! too, will be better taken care of this winter if the proceeds of this under- taking reach the amount the Ki- wanis club are hoping for. The tickets are being sold by the caste and by the Kiwanians, but no systematic canvass has been made, and the Kiwanis club are depending on the generosity of all citizens to buy their tickets at the Grand Opera House. Come and enjoy the show and in so doing take a part in the worthy objectives that the Kiwanis club are planning to promote. Buy your tickets early. 650c. to $1.50. St. Mary's Tea and Sale.
