In "A Hero of the Dardanelles'' you are shown the recruit of "Will They Never Come?" fame, participating jn that glorious historical lauding at the Dardanelles, fighting vigoiously and doing his little bit for King country, in the landing on the peninsula nothing waa impossible that day to our brave boys. The "don't-care" man of "Will They Never Come?" that day proved a hero and every inch a soldier when The realised his responsibilities. Facing the foe with his comrades, his vim and nerve were responsible for holding an important strategical position; his brave actions prevented a company being wiped out. "A Hero of the Dardanelles" is a subject that gives you a good idea of the difficulties of the landing effected by the colonial troops, and the scenes are interpreted in the broadest senße from the famous despatches of Ashmead Bartlett, and from photos and sketches actually taken on the spot. Through this patriotic drama runs a sweet love romance, and the home-coin-ing of the hero completes a very powerful dramatic production. Five other films are also included on this bill. Seat 3 may be reserved. Ring 'olione 385.
