In itself, the fact that there could be shown to present day royalty a screen version of the love story, of the ancestors of the heir to the British throne, proves that the makers of the picture were sineére in their effort to make a worth while production, a picâ€" ture that might stand on its own meâ€" rits. The royal romance of Mary Tuâ€" dor and Charles Branham is founded on fact; the manner in which Charles Major treated it in his novel is dignifiâ€" ed, interesting and appealing. All these qualities are retained in the phoâ€" toplay, and delightful as the stage version of the story was as played by Julia Marlowe, the splendid record of The motion picture proves how much more scope has this art than even the finest stage presentation. Without claiming too much for the picture, it might be well to state that whenever it ‘has been shown it has literally swept people off their feet ; probably the strongest recommendation it can have is the testimonial of H. R. H. the Prmce of Wales, whmh follows. sw s Besides.the intrinsic value of the picture, as far as the plet is conternâ€" ed, it is mwell to note the distinguished cast; Marion Davies, Lyn Harding, who plays the part of Henry VIII; Forrest Stanley, Pedro de Cordoba and Ruth Shepley. The Haileyburian last week says:â€" ‘* Miss Agnes Chesser spent the weekâ€" .‘ o ® * ¢ ,’ end with friends in Timmins. * *When Knighthood Was In Flowâ€" er‘ is a “onderful picture. g?xs well acted. I am greatly interested in it and predict a" huge success for it in England."‘ The above quotation is a splendld testimonial to the worth of a productmn which is so ty plcally Enâ€" glish in theme, in interest. and in hisâ€" toric atmosphere. â€"Apropos of the forthcommg engage: ment of Marion Davies in *‘ When Knighthood ‘Was In Flower‘‘ at the Neow Empn'e, Friday and Saturda this week, it is interesting to note that this production received the inqualifiâ€" ed commend#tion of H., R. H. the Prince of Wales: Last September this motion picture achievement was brought: to London, where it received a notice for a command performance at the regidence of the Prince..

The evidence at the inquest went to show that the unfortunate man would. perhaps have had a chance for life if his friends had shown a‘little interest in him when he was ill and needed| friends, rather than when he was dead and gone. When he was takexf ill here, the other Finlanders disclaimâ€" ed all knowledge of him and showed no disposition to take any responsiâ€" bility or give any ‘particular help in the matter, The Town officials, howâ€" ever, showed much more humanity, and took every care of the unfortunâ€" ate man. He was sent to the hospital, but ‘there he became unmanageab»le__ and apparently more mentally derangâ€" ed than ill physically. It was necessâ€" ary to remove him to the jail for his qwn safety and the safety of others. At the cells he was given several very thorough examinations by two doctors In his evidence Chief Greer told of, in ‘his cell, showing that at this time: Heinenon was not lackmo in physical strength. The e\'ldence showed that every possible care was given the mam and also that he received the most careful mgdlcal attention. . As soon as arrangements were made for guard. ing him at the ‘hospital he was taken back there. For the return journey he was carefully wrapped in blankets and otherwise protected from cold or exposure.. He died at the hospital a day or so after his 1eturn, death being. due‘to pneumonia. He was buried at the expense of the Town, his fellowâ€" countrymen still disclaiming all interâ€" est in him. After hearing the eviâ€" dence in the case which showed that the stranger had been. generously treated ‘by the Town and had ‘been given every care and attention by the authorities, though, as Chief Greer pomted« out in his evidence, Heineâ€" non‘s fellow countrymen shown much interest or consideration while the poor fellow needed assistâ€" ance, the jury brought in a verdict to the effect‘ that Heingnon‘s death had. beén due to pneumonia, and that no. blame attached to anyore. in conneet- ion with the death. / | week Chairman Geo, W.
