GAIETY THEATRE PICTURES.

TO-NIGHT. THE ROAD TO GLORY. Drama, pathos, laughs—all are found in “The Road to Glory,” which is to be screened to-night. May McAvoy, dainty film star, is seen at her best in the part of care-free Judith Allen, who suddenly finds her happiness shattered by circumstances. From a happy, reckless, girl she. becomes, overnight, a cynical woman. How she eventually finds happiness makes one of the finest motion picture stories seen here for some, time.

SATURDAY NIGHT. DRUMS OF JEOPARDY. “Drums of Jeopardy,” the screen play in which dainty Elaine Hammerstem has the leading role, is to be shown to-morrow night. Thrills aplentj r abound in this adaptation of Harold MacGrath’s re.nowned novel. THE PACE THAT THRILLS.
