“A ROYAL FAMILY”
SUNDAY FEATURE
The photoplay to be presented at the
Coliseum Sunday night will be one from
the Metro studio, entitled “A Royal Fam
ily," and featuring the famous ingenue
actress, Ann Murdock. The picture is
produced identically the same as it was
put on on the legitimate stage at the Ly
ceum theater in New York, and at which
time Miss Murdock won a place in the
hearts of the theater-going public. In
fact, her success in portraying the roleof
‘the girl who would be a boy’ was so
great that she was induced to reproduce
the story on the film, and the picture to
be shown tomorrow is the result. Fea
ture prices prevail.
Roy R. Douse has been on the sick list
for several flays, being troubled with ton
silitis.
