' v ST. JAMES THEATRE. * An unusual and vivid drama is “The Healer,” which has Ralph Bellamy and Karen Morley in the leading roles and which will be the main feature at the St. James Theatre to-night and tomorrow night. The film reveals the extraordinary situation of a greatlygifted healer of children, a doctor with a touch of genius in curing cripples,, who is conducting a small hospital, being lured away from his calling by an attractive girl. 'The story is will' worked out, showing how the doctor returns to his work. There is some excellent scenery in the film, which will be supported by a good programme of short films. * MAJESTIC THEATRE. London, although a city of a million wonderful things to see and do, has always retained about it an atmosphere of impenetrable silence, inasmuch as though she only wanted those fortunate mortals who could enjoy an actual trip to London, to shar,e in her being. Thus for the first time in the history of the talking picture screen, a fulllength feature production has been completed, titled “London Speaks, and will be shown at the Majestic Theatre to-night and to-morrow night. The film is a story of a traveller in London, the highlights of the film being the fact that you actually accompany the wanderer and share in all the adventures, discoveries and interesting episodes. .
