a great success as all the boys show
lively interest in the work.

 The Artists Trick" is a good clean comedy. \
 Perhaps the most powerful picture ever shown at the Lion is the Lubin film Two men and a Woman" The love of an artist for the girl whose portrait he painted from a photo graph, and whom he then finds to be the wife of his best friend makes a stirring, d-quickening theme.
 The c. G. P. c. film, "A Study of Kittens was meant for the child ren, but the older folks like it too.
