TONIGHT AT TOWN HALL,
STIRRING SCOTCH ROMANO IT.
“ ANNIE LAURIE.”
“Annie Laurie,’ ’ at tlie Town Hall tonight, is one of .the best beloved ballads in the world presented as a motion picture of pagentry and romance, with Lillian Gish, Norman i Kerry, Hobart Bosworth, Creighton Hale, Patricia Avery and Frank Currier. From the first awe-inspiring scene, “Annie Laurie” combines art with showmanship—-it breathes the very spirit of the rugged Highlands and it moves with the speed and clamour of an avalanche. It presents a glowing, gripping page torn from Scottish history—the tragic feud between the Campbells and the MacDonalds -that culminated in the massacre of Glencoe —the glorious spectacle of the gathering of thousands of clansmen —raids, forays, hand-to-hand encounters—and every heart-warming phase of the sweetest love story in Scottish legendry, the love of lan MacDonald, the mighty Highland warrior, for Annie, the beautiful and capricious daughter of Sir Robert Laurie.; ; This great picture is for tonight only'as “The World’s Entertainers’’ open their Whangarei j Season tomorrow, Friday night, |
