With a cast including Boots Mallory, Wampar Baby Star, Ralph Morgan, Alexander Kirkland, Ireno Ware, Nool Madison, Christian Rub and Ferike Boros, "Humanity" comes to the King's Theatre on Thursday,
The story embraces the elements of romanco and sacrifice as it depicts the adventures of a young doctor who is blind to the ideals of his physician father and who follows the lure of money because of his infatuation or a luxury-loving woman.
Kirkland and Miss Mallory divide the romantic interest and Morgan enacts the role of the father who, with the girl, attempts to guide aright the faltering footsteps of the boy.
Miss Mallory's previous success was "Handle With Care" in which she i shared leading honours with James Dunn. Kirkland was widely acclaim-] ed for his recent performance it "Strange Interlude", in which Morgan also played an important role,
Mies Ware who, like Miss Mallory, camo from the New York stage, mado her picture debut in "Chandu The Magician" and mere recently appear- ed with Warner Baxter in "Six Hours to Live".

"The King's Cup”
"The King's Cup" in having its final run at the Central Threatre to-day. Among the ligh-lights of this latest British and Dominions film are scenes taken in Cheddar Gorge as a 'plane dashes through This was a dan- geraus flying feat. A camera Was fixed on the front of a 'plane so that its view-point was aproximately that of the pilot and the plane was then fown down the Gorge. This was a thrilling experience for the pilot and the passenger-Harry Mitton and Dorothy Bouchier.
"The Silver Lining" John Warburton, the screen's latest find, is regarded as the "fastest man" In motion pictures.
He won that litle by a dosh to Hollywood, an appearance before the camera without a test and the com- pletion of his first picture without a retake.
Warburton, a young Englishman who is said to look like the Prince of; Wales and who is appearing now in "The Silver Lining at the King's, was appearing opposite Alice Brady on the stage in New York City, when he received a call to dash to Holly- wood. His show closed on a Saturday night, he took a plane on Sunday morning and on Monday-thirty hours Inter he was before the 'camera.
This for his first motion picture role, a record never before attempted.
No texts were made of Warburton the fact that ho for the past six years had been starring in Broadway productions was enough to convince Alan Crosland, director, that Warbur ton possessed the necessary qualifica- tions desirable in a leading man for Blm roles.
Tall, good locking, a man's-maa, Warburton is a new name in motion pictures to conjure with,
