MAORILAND THEATRE.

BIG GOLDWYN FOR WEDNESDAY

The wisdom of Lady Algy in Tom Moore’s latest Goldwyn play, “Lord and Lady Algy,” which will be presented at the Maoriland Theatre on Wednesday, may be followed by any wife who has the courage and confidence with which the English lady in R. c. Carton’s famous story was endowed. Her plan consisted in leaving her husband the first time that he broke a pledge to her. The promise was only to give up betting; but the lure of the ring was too strong for the young lord’s sporting blood, and in a fit of weakness he indulged in the sport of backing his favourite horse. As a result his beautiful and dignified wife left him. However, she kept in friendly touch with her husband, and when the time came to prove her real devotion, she met every test in a way which bound the young lord to her with an undying affection. To accomplish her end required the utmost tact, the greatest patience, and even playing the dangerous game of flirtation with a former admirer. But the result justified the means, ,and the dignified Lady Algy retained all the aloofness of her proud nature, while through the power of her will and her intellect, she finally drew the lovable young lord back to her as usual. BUCK JONES'S LATEST. An exceptional appeal to the lovers of good drama, plenty of action, and instructive as well as beautiful scenery, are found in the William Fox picture “Get Your Man,” which shows at the Maoriland Theatre on Saturday, with Buck Jones of ranch play fame as the hero. The star has his work cut out for him in generous measure. He appears as a hero on two continents. He has two love romances—one on each continent. But in both romances he has the same rival—who, by the way, proves himself not only a coward but an unalloyed scoundrel and crook. The story, opening in Scotland, is shifted to Northwest Canada. It is filled with deeds of daring, of course—or it would not be a Buck Jones drama, it presents exciting pursuit, fierce personal conflict, and the triumph of law and love. It is entertainment of the liveliest and most engrossing sort. As for the details—see the picture. You will feel repaid in the enjoyment derma.
