The Right of Way in motion ple- ture form, an adaptation of the fa- mous novel by Sir Gilbert Parker, in which Streen Classics, Inc., presents the magnetic and versatile star, Bert Lytell, will be shown at the theatrs Sunday, Monday, and ay. As those who have read the m —and it is estimateq by Harper & Bros, the publishers, that _they number well into six figures—will re- call, this is a stirring, picturesque and unusual story of Canadian life in Montreal and again on the fringe of the north woads. The action revolves chiefly about the character of Char- ley Steele, called, for his dash and manner by his friends and' enemies, both of which were numerous, Beau- ty. Steele. The famous courtroom scene in_ which, after clearing a2 ‘man of the charge of murder, Steele snaps at him, “Out of my sight—you're as guilty 2s hell!” opens the drama; and this same striking unexpected- ness, this suddenness and almost stunning surprise is repeated In’ the varlous_incidents which go to make up the 'movel which won for Gilbert Parker the title Sir GUbert Parker. The production has been done-with all the finish characteristic of Screen Classics.

The Strand has arranged for a big programme with a variety for Thurs- day, Friday and Saturday. Trevella ang Seals are seen In a full stage diving act with all special scenery. The tank in this act when full of wa- ter weighs seven tons. My. Trevella is assisted by a woman and a seal in this act. All. movements are.. seen through the plate glass in the front of the tank; some fancy swimming and the eating of a banana is shown in this tank. Francis and Elden are seen in a‘comedy singing and talking act that made a big hit. with the Strand’s audience, Mathiew; the comedy juggler, is seen in a series of clever tricks of juggling. - James J. Corbett, the veteran of the ring, is seen in The Prince of Ave- nue A. If you were a jovial young plumber fixing a faucet in one of the palatial homes on Fifth avenue,and a pretty maid should smile at“yeu, would you, or would you not forget the faucet for a few minutes.and give your attention to the girl? If. she seemed to like your brand of banter, you might even look around for a comfortable seat for two. Suppose you were getting chummy with._ ‘renl Success and had invited her to_ th mechanics’ ball hat night. ihen imagine your feeling if an immacn- lately dressed young man should stroll up and create a scene, inform- ing you between breaths that the girl is his flancee, and not a maid at all, but the aristocratic daughter of the house. That's what happens to Jim Cor- bett in his latest picture-play, The Prince of Avenue A. A Kinogram Weekly will close this big programme at the Strand. K The Strand wishes to call your atténtion to the fact that the Black and White Minstrels will make their appear- ance next week. There are eight peo- ple, snappy costumes, beautiful girls, some fine singing, black face come- dians, and a merry time for all. Also four other big attractions at the Strand next week.
