" At Bay."

The war naturally affected the picture-pnducing companies on the Continent and Pathe Freres removed their up to date equipment to America, where they have erected one of the largest and best studios in that country. They still retain their well-known siga. the crowning rooster, but on their masterpieces they have what is known as the " gold rooster," such pictures being acknowledged among the best of the world's output The feature drama to be shown to-morrow (Wednesdav) evening is the first of the Pathe " Gold Booster " films to be shown, and in "At Bay," as it is called, there are all the elements that make for a successful picture ; a powerful story, full of rapid action, perfect photography and production and choice of artists. Miss Florence Heed, a "star " of the legitimate stage, is in the lead. Good supporting items include a naval official war film, the Pathe Gazette, and a clever comedy.
