MCLEAN’S PICTURES.

GREAT STAR, TUESDAY

At the Princess Theatre on Tuesday evening Mr McLean presents D. W. Griffith’s seven-reel master film “The Greatest Thing in Life.” This great picture is the most human and sweetest story ever told on the sheet. In Life’s Pilgrimage as this picture shows hearts are broken—healed—and broken again. Sometimes through the continual hard travelling over Life’s Highway—the jolting on the cobble stones of existence—one becomes immune from heart breaks. One reaps com tentment. Then does Life start happily? Is contentment the greatest thing in life? What was it? David Wark Griffith, Master Mind of the Silent drama asks the question, and then spreads before your eyes a drama of life itself, that will stagger you with its greatness.
