NEW PRINCESS THEATRE
TWO GOOD FILMS. , The star attraction at the New Princes© Theatre to-day will he “When Lights are Low.” This is a beautiful story of love in old China and in modern America. The star is Sessue Hayakawa, the popular Japanese actor, who takes the part of a Chinese of high birth who is forced to leave his native land owing to his having fallen in love with a girl of low birth. The subsequent arrival of the girl in America and her sale at the auction block form part of a wonderful film that is superbly acted. “In the Name of Love,” the romantic comedy-drama, was written hy ono of the most popular novelists of the last century, and 19 the second feature. Nevertheless it is a great story and has been modernised, making a picture that for entertainment is" one of the best we have had the pleasure of presenting. The great, cast is headed hy Ricardo Cortez and Greta Nissen. A good supporting bill, and more entries for the Shingle Contest will be shown. Tho musical items are well up to standard.
