CAPITOL AND EDENDALE
“HUNTINGTOWER” To say that “Huntingtower,” now at the Capitol and Edendale Theatres, is a modern fairy tale, seems an exaggeration. But nevertheless it is true. There is the haunted castle, the princess in distress, and the handsome hero. The princess is imprisoned by the villain, and the adventures that eventuate make the most absorbing story tliat the screen has seen. The princess is a refugee from Russia., pursued by Bolsheviks, who inveigle her to the castle of Huntingtower. Here a young army officer, detailed for her safety, and his uncle (played by Sir Harry Lauder) manage to effect a rescue.. In this they have the assistance of a bunch of urchins from Glasgow, who are having a holiday in the country, and enter into the spirit of the adventure with zest. “The Shield of Honour,” which stars Neil Hamilton, is the second feature. It is a story of the every-day adventures of a typical member of the American police force.
