SATURDAY.
DOUBLE FEATURE PROGRAMME. G'eorge Bancroft has created many interesting roles since he first leaped to fame in that well remembered p'lcture, "Underworld." But it is his newest starring drama, "Rich Man's Folly" which affords him a truly outstanding characterisation. Cast as a millionaine shipbuilder whose creed is power, Bancroft interprets a man whose unconquerahle ambition you will understand and whose inevitable failure will win your deepest sympathy. It is a characterisation which reaches the height of dramatic power when Bancroft, for the first time, discovers that love can conquer the most powerful of ambitions. Charlie Ruggles, whose well-known girl-chasing roles on the screen have brought laughs to the millions in such pictures as "Charley's Aunt" and "Queen High," will appear at the Majestic Theatre on Saturday in his first starring picture, "The Girl Habit." This farce-comedy by Ov/en Davis and Gertrude Purcell puts Charlie right in the thick of a general attitude of attentiveness to all girls who cottle his way. The picture is filled with laugh-packed complications and liilarious situations.
