Without a doubt, the greatest screen production that has ever come to Kingston in the history of motion pictures is "Zeebrugge," the wonderful attraction at the Capitol thejtre the first four days of this week. The first big showings of; the picture here on Monday were at- tended by' capacity audiences, and on Monday evening the house was sold out in record time, the lineup for tickets being formed long before [the doors were opened. . It was a gala opening for . this far-famed picture and the manage- merit of the Capitol theatre put forth every effort to usher in *'Zee- brugge" with all the pomp and cere- mony that could be attached to such an important naval story, which will pass down through the centuries as one of the greatest naval opera- tions ever performédl by the British Navy. The theatre was profusely decorated with flags, inside and out, and the entire theatre presented a loyal appearance indeed.

Ask to see Of}-O- to, first section of the centre aisle were the guests of the management, who comprised the leading military and naval heads of the district. Includ- ed in the guests' section were Major- General Macdonell, General Elmsley, 'General Hill, Captain Fortt and other prominent military men while Lt.-Cal.- HE. Pense and Captain Macdonald of the Sea Cadets and members of the corps were present. The boys of the Naval Brigade with their band, marched. from their headquarters .at the Whig building to. the Capitol theatre, and drew much deserved applause on their way, for their smart appearance and steady marching -while the band drew many comments. On arrival at the theatre, the corps lined up on either side of the lobby while the crowds surged through to the main auditorium to see the picture. As a prologue to the great naval picture, the Sea Cadet band ap- peared on the stage and played sev- eral of their bugle band selections while two signallers at Ne sides flashed out their signals fn a very smart manner. The prologue, by the Naval Cadets, was splendid indeed and proved to be a splendid ides on the part of the management. The Cadets drew great aplause for their part in the evening's performnee. As soon as the curtains had clos- ed on the prologue, the main at- traction of the evening, "Zeebrugge" flashed off the screen and from then until the end of the performance, the audience. was held spell-bound. The writer has seen pictures at- tract audiences.and hold their at- tention, but never has a picture so completely taken an audience as did» the story of '"Zeebrugge" on Monday night. Every detall of the picture was s0 intensely Interesting ' that they for the time forget all else but the picture before them and they drank inthe fampus naval story as much to attalf knowledge of this famous battle as to see how it was yot~it is a drama in itself but it draws forth from the audience the full apprecia- tion of being British. It is a picture | that stirs to the, depths the patriot- ism of the coldest, one that cangot help but bring out the pride of every true Britisher, a picture that causes one to flush with pride over Th by the British Admiralty, which has approved these pictures. 3 The orchestra, during the show- ing of "Zeebrugze" and before the performance, took part ip the even- stirring patriotic naval musie, which had its effect upon the audiemce. In all, "Zebrugge" is a picture of a life time, one that none with real British spirit cannot afford to miss, and apart from this, is a spectacle that will remain in the minds of those who see it, long after other screen productions have passed into obliv- ion. GLORIA SWANSON AT STRAND.
