I believe that it was Peggy Bettinson "who was the first gentleman from London to dis- cover the truth that tiny Jimmy Wilde was what everybody in South Wales said he was world beater, and in every way positive freak. Before Wilde was permitted to launch out, he was knocking the stuffing out of all the boys who did their training along with him.

KEEPING HIS EYE IN.

I

I have just been running over the career of Wilde, and when come to count up his victories, and take stock of the various men he has beaten, he appears to me more of a wonder than ever.

SUICIDE."

'Will be screened at the VICTORIA on THURS-

DAY (12th.). Nothing that we can say about this picture would adequately describe it. It is the most wonderful film that has been released for many a year.

It has no peer and ranks as the greatest achieve- ment in photoplay production. The theme is out of the usual, treated in an unusual way, and is a scathing depiction of man, his downfall and his regeneration.

From the standpoint of intense dramatic value of the story, the wonderfully impressive scenic effects and the remarkably high-grade of photography it is unsur- passed. It is a brand new film and supreme in the importance of the moral subject it deals with.

“MORAL SUICIDE" is a very expensive picture and even if we increased the prices threefold it would still not be a "business" proposition för us.
