ray in “The AB.C. of Love,” and the twelfth episode of “The Invisible Hand serial are the special ieatui.es. To-morrovv’s specials: —Clara Kimball Voung and Elaine Hammersteiu are the stars to-morrow. Probably one-lialf the word is interested in psychic phenomena, while the other half is awaiting results before asserting its standpoint, _so that the screen adaptation oi’ MareTui s now famous play, “Eyes ol Youth, ’ with its crystal-gazing heroine looking into Die future to choose her path at a time of indecision, will prove 4>f universal interest. Apart from ihe psychic- twist, "Eyes of Youth” is a memorable produel ion. It lias in Die divergent role of Gina Ashling no less u star than Clara Kimball 1 omig, whoso emotional capabilities and queenly beatify lit her so perfectly for Die part: I hen it has been expensively, and adnmably produced, its mill lit mil' ’of shifting scenes being displaced in a manner that no stage could effect ; and lasi, bill not least. Du: Gory is already well and truly tried. Max Marein’s play being one of Die world’s most popular successes. “'J he Point ol View” is a picturised play, and with Elaine 1 laminerstein as the star, holds the interest throughout. Il is a story, of New York life, full of interesting and real people. - The east is excellent.Besides, the star handles the role of a practical daughter of a poverty-stricken aristocrat exceedingly well. Ail Die others in the east are natural and effective. “Hold Fast,” an excellent comedy will bo screened preliminary to the feature dramas. The box plan is open at Miller’s Cornel', where early booking is advised.
