KING'S THEATRE.
There is now being presented at the King's Theatre the picture version of one of the most popular playsof modern times. Those who saw "Lightnin, with John D O'Hara in the title role, have now an opportunity of seeing the play on the screen, with all the benefit ot scenery.honie life, and characters true to the original story. The part of "Lightnin is splendidly taken by Jay Hunt, the other leading characters being most capably acted by Madge Bellamy and Wallace JMacDonald. The play is a good example of the comedy of certain aspects of American country life, and was iscreened under the direction of John Ford, of "Iron Horse fame. The gazette of world happenings is most excellent, and the orchestral music is, as usual, a feature of the programme. "Lightnin'" will be repeated to-night and during next week.
