Supported by a fine cast, these two well known stars present the story of a lumber king, who, by debasing theorles, obtains tremendous wealth. Fventually his schemes are pene- trated by a revengeful son, who fights for the love of a girl and the fortune which is justly due him. The:Cana- | dian setting adds greatly to the im-| pressiveness of this production and reflects the glory of the Great Far North. | In addition, the footlight offerings | are various in quality v. | i - A Gardiner’s pedigreed bulldog: | - pecially interesting for their amazing | intelligence.
