THE WHITE ANGEL” “The White Angel,” First National’s dramatisation of the life of Florence Nightingale, is scheduled as the feature attraction at the Municipal Theatre to-night, and screening finally at a special matinee at 2.15 p.m. tomorrow, with Kay Francis in the stellar role. The story of this wealthy

English girl who renounced a life of social frivolities to become a war nurse and aid the groundwork for what subsequently became the Red Cross, is filled with absorbing drama, tragedy and romance. In bringing the story of Florence Nightingale to the screen, First National has searched out the intimate details of a career rich in theatrical values. Months of research, a tremendous programme of construction and lavish and elaborate settings, are said to have made this picture one of the most mammoth productions ever screened. The supports include a special film of the Coronation.
