AT UPTOWN Amazing Experiences of Woman in World War A great and moving dramatis story is told in “I ‘Was a Spy,” the new Fox presentation that opened at the Uptown Theatre last night.| It recapitulates the daring dfl'di‘ of Martha McKenna, who was a| Belgian nurse in a German hos- | pital during the War. The film was| adapted from the woman spy's own; reminiscences, and Victor Saville has directed a picture that must! be acclalmed as a triumph of real-| ism. It is a war-time story, intensely dramatie, suspenseful and thrilling. One cof the chiel features of the production is the reconstructed market place of Roulers on a scale sufficiently large to accommodate almost a battalion of infantry, to- gether with the units which go to form a fighting regiment, and the usual stalls, etc., which are part of the everyday busy life in the cen- ter of a little country town. g Added Feature | “Nurl” unusual feature depicting the life and customs of the Hindus, as seen through the eyes of Nuri, the elephant, is an interesting and amusing aduition to the program. | GOLD RUSH PIONEER PASSES AWAY, MAYO Word has been received here of the death of C.
