All the color and spirit of high advedture that Li in the i Stevenson classic has been retained, and the photoplay has been mounted with a mastery of artistic production. The story, which is familiar to all, has been followed closely in the screen version.

Jim Hawkins, Bill Bones, Long Silver, Ben Gunn all the familiar characters appear in the -life in the picture. The picture opens in "Benbow Tavern" on the east coast of England, where at Bill Bones' death young Jim comes into possession of a chart showing the location of Captain Flint's treasure. From there sails the old brlgantine in which the Squire and his mutinous crew leave on the treasure hunt. Battles with the pirates, the kidnapping of Jim, the fight in the stockade, and the final success follow. No effort has been spared to make "Treasure Island" a truly great picture.

The fight at old Benbow Tavern; the mutiny ou shipboard on the way to the treasure hunt; the battle at the stockade all the red-blooded adventures that have made Stevenson's classic a favorite with young and old have been retained on the screen. Shirley Mason plays the role of Jim Hawkins, and is supported by an all-star cast. A Good Man Gone. Lucien B.
