"MILLIONS."
Noted on both stage and screen for 1 his portrayals of Cockney characters, Gordon Harker in his latest comedy ■ "Millions" changes from his cloth cap and muffler to the silk hat and morning coat of the successful millionaire, and only occasionally lapses into "pure Cockney." Very much the bijg business man, he is,disgusted that his son has done nothing to make a name for himself and cuts off his allowance. The • son has a very resourceful valet, who, knowing Harker's fondness for music, suggests'! that his young employer should become a musician. They prevail upon a rising composer to write music for them, and all goes well until a business rival of Harker learns of the deception and plans to use the in- . formation as a means of getting . the * better of him. Harker, with his usual I adroitness, .turns the tables to his own i advantage.
