“THE VILLAGE BLACKSMITH.” Thaiiks,'' thanks, to time, my worthy lriend ....... . Eoi the lessons ihoii hast taught! 'ijlms at the flaming forge of lUe. uuir iortlines must be wrought; . ids on its sounding anvil shaped Each nuiipng deed and‘thought! On LCiday “The Village Blacksmith” will be screened at the local theatie. It,has neen one ol the outstanding suc-t-csses oi tlie year in pictures —with its heauttiul scenes of home life —the lile iu a. small country town—the thrills and joys of childhood days —the stinging iuiigue of scandal—and the sensational fight and train wreck—it makes one of the finest entertainments in the picture world to-day. HAREM MANNERS SHOCK LONDON SOCIETY. Mav McAvoy, popular Realart star, will be. seen as carlotta, one of Wm. .1 Locke’s most delightful heroines, ,wnen her latest picture, “Morals,” is screened in Shannon to-morrow night. Reared in a Turkish harem, where every girl’s career, frankly discussed and prepared for from her very Childhood, is marriage, Carlotta is suddenly transplanted, when she is about seventeen into London society, the ward of a most conventional, highly connected, and impeccable British bachelor. Here, the girl’s childish eagerness to know what kind of a husband her guardian means to give-her to distresses him almost as much as do her -artlessly rude questions about the age and otlier intimate details of the lives of his women friends. All in all, the naive Carlotta gives Sir Marcus a very troubled time of it before he discovers that he loves the delicious little nuisance. ■ !
