“THE HONOUR OF THE FAMILY.”
Of more than ordinary importance to the talking picture public is the fact that this First 'National Picture featuring Bebe Daniels, Warren William and Alan Mowbray comes to the Refent Theatre on Thursday, 19th, for a two-nights season. It is unique among plays, being an adaptation of one of the' droll stories of Hoiiore Balzac, the great novelist, and presents some startlingly interesting characters. It succeeds in being melodrama, comedy and romance at the same time. Miss Daniels is seen in the role of 'Laura, a delightfully aggravating young lady who acts as companion and nurse to the rich old Hungarian noble, Paul Barony. "The Honour of the Family” brought up to the minute in setting and outward semblance, still holds the compelling humanity which makes it as vital as when, it was written. You can go to see it with the assurance that it will entertain you. "The Honour of the Family” brings the sardonic humour and dramatic power of Honore Balzac-, to the screen. V.V/.VA^VVV/.V.Y.V.W.V;
