R. Hubbard in Lectures on Alaska— Change of subject each night Attractions At Theatres "“MOTHER MACHREE | NOW AT COLISEUM iR, Vet e Lo TR Poignant drama, whimsical & mor, a superlative cast and scenes from old Ireland that intrigue the imagination, mark Fox Film's ver- sion of “Mother Machree,” which had its first showing at the Coli- seum Theatre yesterday. And just as the song has stirred the hearts of the world for a score of years so too the picture bids fair to become as well loved as the great lyric. From the first scenes in Ireland where the mother, played with sym- pathetic understanding by Belle Bennett, thinks only how she may save her son from his sordid, crushing environment, to the time of the Great War in America, the story sweeps forward with the pow- er of an epic. Little Philippe De Lacey plays \ the part of the young son in the early sequences with feeling for the part that moves the heart of the most sophisticated, while Neil Ham- |, ilton, the same son grown to man- hood, gives a performance long to be remembered, Victor McLaglen, who played Cap: tain Flagg in “What Price Glory, is the Kilkenny Giant. He it is who comforts “Mother Machree” through the long years, when she leaves her son to be adopted by an | aristocratic woman so that he may obtain the education the mother could not give him.
