MAORILAND PICTURES.

' Pictures will Ifc shown at the Theatre to-morrow, Friday, and Saturday nights. To-morrow "Fields of Honour," supported by a John Bunny comedy. "Troublesome Tresses," will be shown. The former is a Goldwyn feature, starring Mae Marsh, while the story is of-artistic beauty and intimate appeal. It shows the heroine wrongly arrested in trying to save her s>ter-"s life. Then comes a race for love. On Friday "Wild Youth" will be the star. The story is as follows: Louise Mazarine is the girl wife of I Joel Mazarine, a veritable, cave man, old enough to be her father, and who is really more of a gaoler than a husband. He is a rancher, and Louise comes to him virtually in payment of a mortgage and to satisfy the bestial cravings of a belated manhood, coarse ■ in its every demand- Orlando Guise ■ is a son of a neighbouring ranch owner. • The two young people meet, and the > result is inevitable. Joel is attaeked- ! and is saved from the gang by Orlando, > | who thus gains access to his house—- • ! and his child wife. The husband's - j jealousy is awakened, and he suspects s j -with cause the mediation of Li Choo. , hie- Chinese servant, whom he beat? - severely.- Louise plans to eseape, aad Is placed by a. doctor under, the pios

tecting cafe of Mrs isoyle, at the latter ranch. Mazarine is later found . dead, and suspicion points to Orlando. H Finally, however, Li Choo confesses, calmly declaring that age cannot remain as a barrier to youth and love. Then the two young people are united and love has its own way. On Saturday "Selfish Yates"-(W. S. Hart) will be the leading film, and will be supported by the "Eagle's Eye." . . „,> —,—,
