“CALL OF THE HEART” The new* programme to be presented at the Edendalo Theatre this evening includes “Deliverance,” a fine story o£ every-day conditions in America as seen by a young newspaper reporter. The picture pays special reference to the question of prohibition, but is not primarily propaganda. A tender romance runs through the whole story. Affection, loyalty, courage, and intelligence are portrayed with almost human fidelity by “Dynamite,” the police dog star, in “Call of the Heart,” the second feature, with Edmund Cobb playing the leading role. “THE GRIP OF THE YUKON” A photoplay as gripping as its title and as soul-searching as life is “The Grip of the Yukon, the UniversalJewel production. Francis X. Bushman in the leading dramatic role gives a portrayal that brings a catch in the throat and tears to the eyes. In the tragic role of a Yukon miner, who is 1 the only survivor of an icy catastrophe which carries away the only people ho loves, Bushman gives a powerful and deep delineation. Xeil Hamilton and June Marlowe inject a powerful romantic them© into the picture. Here are two young people who are outstanding. Hamilton is an exceptionally handsome and virile type and Miss Marlowe beautiful and appealing. Both play their roles splendidly.
