A Leader of Men, Exclusive Two Reel Drama with Arthur Johnson, The Colonial theatre offer§ again for the third time this week, a gem from the superb exclusive mmetion pic- ture service, that choice of the choi of the high class output of the best studios. It is a strong drama entitled A Leader of Men, and is in two reels with 'Arthur Johnson, the unrivalled actor the part of John Doran, a lad of the slums who meets a cap- italist’s daughter, and is captivated by her, and later turned down. He then shows her how much good there is in him, and gets employment in a big shipyard, and is promoted several times, until he gets a position as foré- man. His little teacher and friend, the co: y's stenographer, turns out to be tl real friend. and for her he turns down the proffered hand of the willing capitalist’'s daughter. The Se- cret of the Will is another two reel feature; by the Kalem cast with Anna Nilsson in the leading role.
