Warner Plays His First Big Part Since Filming of “King of Kings.” “Sorrell and Son,” has been acclaim- ed everywhere it has been shown as one of the finest, if not the very fin- est, pictures produced during the past five years. Don’t miss “Sorrell and Son.” The long awaited screen version of that novel of father and son devotion which has been read by hundreds of thousands of readers throughout the world, will be shown at the Grand theatre, this place, on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week and it is easily ranked among the year’s five best pictures.

Brilliant direction, acting so real that the eminent players seem to be living their roles, fine settings—including his- = toric spots in England, where much of the story was filmed—and flawless photography combine to create what is nearly the ultimate in entertainment. H. B. Warner, playing his first part since “The King of Kings,” Anna Q. Nilsson, Alice Joyce, Nils Aster, Car- mel Myers, Mary Nolan, Norman Tre- vor, Betsy Ann Hisle, are some of the artists who share honors in the pictur- ization of Warwick’s Deeping’s novel. “Sorrell and Son” is the story of fa- ther love and devotion, a story of England during the post war period. When heroes came home only to. find their peace time jobs appropriated by stay-at-homes, and facing the necess- ity of working in the most menial of tasks to support themselves’ and their families. “Captain Stephen Sorrell” was one of these heroes; not only was his job gone when he returned to London after the Armistice, but his wife was faithless. Left with his young son as his wife de- Jserts him for a wealthy pnofiteer, “Sorrell’ works as a hotel porter in or- der to educate the lad and give him a chance in life. BARNESBORO GROUP OF M. E.
