The film play is ; marvellous transformation of a work o; a genius to the screen. The idea oj presenting three generations, e.-fch t’ac mg the same problem, and each finding the eternal conflict of the weary wisdom of old age against the glorious vigour of youth, was due to the genius of Arnold Bennett.

The tale has the garden sweetness of old flowers. It tells of the victory of love over the cruel craft of world-weary elders. The hopeless tight against new ideas. The hopeless task of parents who seek to manage the love alfaiirs of their children, and quench the business ideas of the younger generation. It is all lovely—quaintly bountiful iie-toms-gorgeous and picturesque dresses. On Thursday next William Fox preson Is William |-'arniiin in Justin lfinitly .'McCarthy's world famed romance; “ft I were King.” The .rowning achievement of William Farnurn’s brilliant. career.
