THE KING’S CINEMA THEATRE. “DINTY”—SPECIAL MATINEE TO-DAY. With a bundle of newspapers under his j arm, and a voice twice as loud as any other boy in Chinatown. “Dinty” fights the world ; for a living, and makes himself newshoy king to provide a home for his old Irish : mother. Then when his mother dies “Dinty” has to fight down the feeling that life “isn’t such a much” after ali, and he j battles to get back into the game and I make himself the success his mother always longed to see him. Wesley Barry, • the youthful, befreckled star, is a revela- ' tion as “Dinty”, the king of the newsboys’ trust, and his two lieutenants are the little Chinese halfbreed and a jolly little j coon, both selling members of the trust, and for them “Dinty” puts up many a fight. There is a beautiful love interest in the story, and in this, of course, “Dinty” 1 has a hand, while running a little romance of his own on the side. This picture will lie screened at a special matinee to-day, ;

commencing at 2 p.m. It will again be screened in tbe evening, when the musical selections will be played by an augmented orchestra. Prices: D.C., 2s; stalls, is (plus tax); booking 6d extra.
