GRAND
THREE BIG PICTURES Mary Bickford's latest picture, “My Best Girl,” heads the big programme to be shown at the Grand Theatre this evening. “My Best Girl” is the story of a shop girl, Maggie Johnson, who through all the hard knocks she receives, still retains a belief in better things. She is an enigma to her own family, who cannot understand the idealism with which she paints out the shadows in their lives. At the store she meets a new employee, Joe Grant, with whom she falls in love. She has no idea that he is the son of her employer. It is a marvellous romance of two youngsters walking headlong and blindfolded into the trap that Pate has set for them. “If Youth But Knew,” a picture based on the daring English play, is the second feature, with Lillian HallDavies in a leading role. The final attraction will be "Across to Singapore,” a romantic stoFv of the life of a sailor, with Ramon Novarro as the star.
