TWO POPULAR NOVELS

STRAND ON FRIDAY It is not often that two best-sellers appear on one picture programme This will be the case on Friday at th* Strand, when the screen version of two popular novels, will comprise th e main part of the programme. Realisinr the great film possibilities of these two best sellers, two big producing companies bought the rights, engaged two well-known directors, the mos* popular stars in screendom, and created two great masterpieces. The best sellers are “The Exquisite Sinner” and “Bertha, the Sewing Machine Girl.” i n “The Exquisite Sinner,” Conrad Nagel and Renee Adoree, two of the most popular screen stars to-day, have the leading roles. In “Bertha, the Sewinr Machine Girl,” beautiful Madge Bellamy has the star part. These stories ait novels sold like “hot cakes,” and as pictures, they have been just as popular The Strand Symphony Orchestra has arranged a musical interlude, which will undoubtedly delight Strand patrons.
