612.1. Gable In Jack London’s “Call Of The Wild” At Prince Edward

Jack Iondolfs immortal story of the Yukon Gold Rush, “Call of the Wild," has been converted. info a grand piece oi screen entertainment by the combined efforts of Clark Gable, Loretta Young and Jack Oakle who interpret its leading characters.

"Call oi the Wild," which begs-n a two day engagement last night at the Prince Edward Theatre, comes as the long-awaited vehicle to offer Clark Cable a. real lie-mun role, and Cid‘ ‘awonk as Jack Thornton, the nan e, swash-buckling prospec- tor,‘ out as the finest of his career. --

Loretta Young is believable and beautiful as Claire Blake. the shel- tered_.,young society n who casts her lot with Thornton and his buddy, Shorty I-Ioolihan, when her husband is lost in the Arctic wastes, and Jack Oakie is at his best as the wise-cracking Hoolihan.

The gulf between their worlds and their codes hrrns Claire and

Got-Gould's Mcalll

UITAWA, Dec. alt-Good wishes to all Canadians were broadcast from government house here today when Lord~ Tweedsmuir, Governor General, delivered his first Christ- mas me tentative in this country.

His Excellency said:

"I am speaking as a newcomer to the people among whom Lam i0 be privileged for some years i0 make my home. You have adopted my wife and myself, we are now Canadiens, and we have never been more proud of anything.

“This afternoon my thoughts are full of this great land of ours. whose riches are only half ex- plored, and whose possibilities we cannot even guess at. I am think- lug oi the people, drawn originally from every part oi the homeland and from other lands, men and woman with all kinds of interests

Thornton against each other at first. But on the long trail to the "lost claim" which both seek their hat- red turns to deep love. However. when they reach the claim site and flnd it richer than they had dared hope, their dreams of happiness crash with the sudden return oi Claire's lost husband. Placing this test, Thornton is bigger than his “taks-what-you-want" code and lets Claire go away with her husband.

The work of the entire supporting cast, which 1- eludes Reginald owen, Frank Conroy and Katherine deafllle, is uniformly excellent and the film introduces a new"‘won- der-dog" in Buck, the St. Bernard who plays London's immortal dog hero, who is.more wolf than dog and is torn between civilization and the call of his wolf-mate.

“Cali oi the Wild" is as fresh and brisk as the air ~on majestic Mt. Baker, Washington, which provided its magnificent scenic backgrounds. Sec this cinema treat by all ineansi

and vocations, sorns of them for- tunate and comfortable. but many facing the poverty and hardships pf the pioneer. ' “Christmas, as our King has said. is a family gathering. and brings all o1 us, rich and poor, small and great, round the fireside. It should make us reallu our unity. We are united as a. christian people on this great festival day oi our faith. We are united as citizens oi the British Empire and subjects of our beloved King. We are united as citizens of Canada, a free and sov- ereign nation, with s. proud-past and, as we believe, a prouder fu-

ure.

"A family gathering mould give us confidence, for we know that we are not alone in the world. We have many hard tasks before us, but no task is too difficult for courage, and courage is born of the sense o! companionship. The stiffest brae, as the Scottish prov- erb says, will yield to the stout heart.

"And there is another thoudrt I would leave with you. Peace in this disordered world can only come by the efforts oi those who love it and will work for it. Let us be resolute to cam the blessing of the quake , in memory oi him who, 19 centuries ago, brought to earth the gospel of peace. with deep sincerity I wish you all hap- piness and good fortune in the new year.“
