most famous novels. The is something
mystical and fascinating about the un

Such is the theme of McGrath’s story,

on the screen by Harold Lockwood makes
"The Lure of the Mask’’ a photoplay
which holds its audience from start to
finish in a manner such as very few film
stories si's Capable of doing.
The evening’s program is rounded out

ing roles. As king of the Mardi Gras,

the revelations of a tramp he is shorn of
his greatness, but reclaims the iove of
his wife.
