FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE
Aren’t you tired of seeing the
same old characters? Come and see
something new. Gypsey Fair, with
the lyrical body, dancing, every
pulse of her body sing.ig with joy.
A character you have never seen
before, and James “Spike” McFad
den and Billy his brother, all people
new to stage or ereen, mysterious,
alluring and absolutely different
from start to finish. Thrills, susp
ence action. Romance, adventure,
Thrills. DREAM STREET. The lit
tle players live, not act. through
nine reels. The'direction is an ex
quisite and advanced work. The
characters are delightfully human,
really individual and most interest
ing. The action is touched with a
| quick glow of suspence that whips
attention to a complete absorption.
There are a great many sets, some
very beautiful. The love scenes are
the most natural ever presented in
the films. The production is wrap
ped in a great royal mantle of
beauty.
