more or less funny falls, go TO the
Savoy Theatre and see Mary Miles

Way" It's the comedy Of manners
now, and this one contains the guf-
faw, although the more refined
ohuokle dominates. From the time
that Miss Minter, as a young news
paper girl. goes out to interview a
shyly unwilling young novelist, the
comedy grows apjace, all based upon
situation. Should a girl propose, and
do girls in real life do IL as skill

surely get some helpful hints.

AT THE MAJESTIC.

A decided advance in motion pic
ture pre- duction is noticeable in the
picture The Journeys End" which
opened a four-day engagement yes
terday at the Majestic theatre. It
was a complete serious drama with
out a single subtitie-the whole
story being told by pictures and by
the sincere acting OF the players as
sembled in the cast.
BY far the most striking charac-
terization is that OF Mabel Ballin
who as "The Girl" paints with sure
strokes as lovely portrait as the
screen has ever known. Her cameo
like beauty-her rare artistry-her
splendidly sympathetic portrayals
will undoubtedly win for her a host
OF admirers. She is comparatively

the wife Of Hugo Ballin who directed
the picture.
Mention must also be made OF
.Wyndham Standing. who makes

veteran OF the screen, has in the past
done excellent work, but nothing

Of THE Iron-worker" is splendidly
real and veritsbly may Il be said that
il IS drawn from life. Mr.. Bancroft's
little daughter Georgctte is also IN
the cast playing a most important
part.
The picture pictorially is beautiful
and the photography faultless. One
OF the most gripping scenes depicts
view OF the Catacombs in Rome.
