POLLARD'S PICTURES. DOUBLE STAR-BILL MONDAY At the Princess Theatre on Monday Pollard’s present a big double star feature bill in William Brady’s wide-famed World Film drama, “The Hidden Scar,” and. the big Keystone comedy, “ A Tug-Boat Romeo.” Holbrook Blinn, Ethel Clapton, and Irving Cummings constitute the tri-star combination in “ The Hidden Scar.” Miss Clayton has the role of a cultured young woman who, because ot one mistake has to work as a dance hall girl to fend for herself and the child she bore a once-rich man, now a derelict. On bis death she is bequeathed a country home and an annuity. In the country she meets and marries a young minister, and a year of blissful happiness elapses, when the scar ot her life is revealed to her husband. His denunciation of her was in violation of every principle he preached that day when he chose for - his text: “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow.” The subsequent happenings prove that even a man’s mother and father are of second consideration when he is in love. “A Tug Boat Romeo ” is a fitting finish to a good display". It is a quick, snappy' comedy that is produced for the purpose of laughter and it faithfully' carries out its mission.
