Summary

The Courtship of Myles Standish,' with Charles Ray as the star, comes to the Queen's Theatre today. It is a big production; the building of the Mayflower alone costs $64,000. When Charles Ray decided to produce his big film based upon Longfellow's poem, it was understood that its making would be no rush job. Nine months of hard work, with more than $800,000 expended in the actual cost, has given the screen a finely detailed production. Enid Bennett plays the female leading role.
