McLEAN’S PICTURES.

HAROLD LOCKWOOD, TUESDAY

On Tuesday evening Mr McLean presents a fine programme. ,In “A Alan of Honour’’ Harold Lockwood does the host work of his bfilliant career. The l story is a screen version of Henry Kitchell We bster’s popular novel. It is a stirring drama of love and finance, revolving around a young newspaper reporter, David Smith, who is in charge of an enterprise to develop the resources. of a semi-tropical island for a group of promoters. Success attends Smith's efforts, but the promoters wish to keep this fact from the small stockholders-, by means of false reports, fpr their own profit. Smith refuses to' become a party to such a fraud, and announces to Beaumont, the head of the promotion company, that he will fight to protect the small stockholder. He not only beats Beaumont at his game of high finance hut carries off Ids daughter, Christabel. A great comedy, Ben Turpin in “Robbing the Bank,” and the 15th and last episode of the serial “Wolves of Kultur,” will also .be screened. As usual McLean's full orchestra will supply incidental music.
