InE HEART Of
HUMANITY At THE
PAST|ME THIS Week
One Of the Biggest Features Growing
Out Of the World War 10 Be
Presented Here.

THE Heart Of Humanity" which is
to be presented at the Pastime Theater
on Monday, with Dorothy Philips in
the featured role, In an eight-reel AL
len Holubar production which brings
to the screen the inspiring story OF
woman's effort to alleviate the suffer-
ings of the wounded and orphaned and
homeless during the days when
France and Belgium were SCARED and
scared by sword and torch, and pound
ed and rocked by great German guns.
It depicts the tenderness Of the moth
er-heart In its conflict with the hor-
rors of war. 1t pays deserved trib-
ute to womanhood as expressed in the
Red Cross nurse. It presents a side
of the war which we have been too
prone to overlook.
The story of "The Heart Of HUI
manity" was written by Olga Scholl
and Allen Holubar, adapted for the
screen by Mr.. Holubar and produced
by him. 1t deals with the romance
Of Nanette, the little ward of Father
Michael, parish priest Of community
in the Canadian Northwest. While the
parishioners are celebrating the mar
riage of Nanette and John, the Oldest
and bravest of the Widow Patricia's
five sons, news comes of the declara-
ton of war by Germany.
John answers the call to the colors,
and, with three Of his brothers, en-
lists in the Canadian Expeditionary
Forces. Eventually the fifth boy goes.
Johns letters to Nanette describe the
sufferings endured by French and Bel
gian children so wildly that the moth
er-heart in Nanette is awakened and
she determines to go abroad as Red
Cross nurse.
On the war-torn fields of Flanders
the little wife meets her husband but
once, after which she is captured by
the Germans. They are reunited,
however, after a series of thrilling
scenes, which wildly portray the final
hating of the great German drive
and then the counter-attack which
sent the Prussian hordes Seeing for
refuge to their own border.
Through the entire production there
runs a thread of heart interest that
makes "The Heart of Humanity" the
most absorbing love story of the great
war yet filmed. The cast in support
of Miss Philips includes such well
known screen favorites as William
Stowell, Pat O'Malley, Robert Ander-
son, Margaret Mann, Walt Whitman,
George Braidwood, George Hacka-
thorn and Gloria Joy.
