WAR PICTURE ARE ALL OF
ENGLISH OK IRISH BLOOD
(At the Globe tonight, Wednesday)
The new photoplay, "Missing," pro
duced by J. Stuart Blackton from a
scenario written by himself and James
Young from Mrs. Humphrey Ward's
successful novel, is an English story
and by a coincidence, nearly all of the
players and directors concerned in its
production are from some land where
flies the British flag. Even the cam
eraman, William O'Connell, is of Celt
ic descent.
This is a remarkable picture In
many respects, it having to do with
the present war. The story is highlv
dramatic, the action strong and rapid.
and there are many situations filled
with distinct thrill and heart appeal.
