Chown, er KINGSTo Theatre, half the enjoyment of fu- ture audiences would be spoiled, for the situations, incidents and climax- es, a8 well as the comedy and drama packed into this human interest screen offering, have the flavor and surprise qualities of an O., Henry story.

In this picture, Miss Daviés evol- ves from a little orphan git! in an asylum to a young woman of strong character, great beauty and charm of manner, but it is not on this slen- der thread that the ploture is based. Rather it is upon the exciting inci- dents and unusual situations that arise from the fact that as Mamie, the lovable, whimsical heroine, Miss Davies finds hersalf the centre of 'a hotbed of plot, counter-plot, adven- ture and romanee generally. The drama whirls and vibrates around Mamie's adopted child. The comedy touchés are supplied by such noted artists as Holbrook Blinn, Harry Myers, Richard Carle and Harry Watson, Jr., while the more serious and dignified incidents are enacted by : Harrison Ford and Hobart Bosworth. --- tc men. 3 This 'will positively be the TUF tii Claas A.
