EVERYBODY’S
“THE KING OF KINGS”
The blind child wandering in the streets piteously striving to grope her way to Him —Faith, Divine Faith, in the childish heart —belief in The Man though her eyes could not see Him. “Take me to Him —please.” But none heed her. There are so many sick people about. Blind children are a nuisance. She wanders on, ruthlessly thrust aside here, harshly commanded out of the way there. How much of a parallel is there in the story of .the blind child of those ages and the struggle for Life and Light to-day? The boy Mark is there. He sees her and takes her hand. He himself had been cured. With impetuous gratitude ! he leads her —to The Light! I The moments of sweetness and ten- ! derness are myriad in l.he King of ICings,'' softening the tragedy, holding ! high, as they do, the Torch of Truth, that penetrates the darkness for you I and me. _ „ Throughout, “The King of Kings, which is now being shown at liverybody’s Theatre, surges with infinite Humanity, .with tenderness with beauty, and never does it overstep the bounds of good taste. . It is supremely beautiful, having been made by the master craftsman of the screen after years of study and research, and by the expenditure of a huge fortune.
