SATURDAY.
DOUBLE FEATURE PROGRAMME. Has a man the right to marry dreaming only of the day when he will be the fauier a son; a son who will carry on the family name and tradition to new glory and houour? Can such one-sided ambition allow for the more simple and intimate joys of life — sympathy, understanding and love? Such is the engrossing theme of George Bancroft's new starring picture, "Rich Man's Folly," a stirring drama of human desira and conflict which comes to the Majestic Theatre on Saturday. For in "Rich Man's Folly" you find Br.ock Trum'bull (George Bancroft), a powerful millionaire shipbnilder, centreing all his intense hopes and dreams in his youn son whils his beautiful daughter (Frances Dee) is neglected, overlooked, forgotten. But when Trumbull's mad ambition for his son precipitates the child into a situation which endangers his life, it is the daughtar, now bethrothefi to her father's business rival, who enters into conflict with' her own father — even dares to accuse him of ruining his son's life. There is 'a climax of compelling dramatic intensity which will strike de'ep into the h'earts of men and women. | The second feature is Charles Rugglos in "Girl Habit."
