"THE FLAG LIEUTENANT."

ROYALTY PRAISES HENRY EDWARDS. At u recent screening of "The Flag Lieutenant," in London, Their Majestic King George and Queen Mary were so impressed with Henry Edwardjs' performance in this great British production that they expressed the wish to compliment Edwards personally. It is not often that Royalty singles out any film star for personal recognition, uu'd this is only an instance of HenryEdwards' immense popularity in the British Empire. lie is not only recognised as Britain's leading film actor, but in Germany, Sweden, France, and other European countries. If announced in any'continental city that a Henry Edwards' film is to be screened at a certain theatre, the proprietor of this theatre is sure of a full house. Although "The Flag Lieutenant" is the one film that Henry Edwards has been seen in by New Zealanders, he achieved amazing popularity during the long run seasons throughout the Dominion, and it is certain that he will reccivo a whole-hearted reception on hi* reappearance in the British Dominions film, "The Further Adventures of the Flag Lieutenant." This film is u sequel to the earlier film, and is one of the best British productions that will be seen during 1029. It will be screened at the De Luxe Theatre tonight.
