AMUSEMENTS.

ROXY AND TIVOLI

Edmund Lowe and Victor McLaglen, those two boisterous, fighting, clowning pals, who have fought their way around the world, are at it again, fathoms under tins sea, in the picture "No More Women,; coming to-morrow to the Roxy and livoli Theatres. Real enemies when their light 13 private, they are pals to the death against outsiders. This time they are cast as two deep-sea divers, "ace" men on rival tugs, they tight together on the bottom of the ocean for sunken gold. Just when they think their jobs are Inst due to a mortgage on the tug. their hopes are revived. Sally Bkuie appears as the owner of the boat. After a hectic battle in which McLatrlen is almost murdered, they throw down the hatchet momentarily and go with Sally on the search of a 2.000,000-dollar sunken treasure. Forty fathoms underneath the surface of the water, a. diver from an opposing tug tries to kill McLaglen. Lowe starts to the rescue and then follows a most exciting climax, which brings the boys back safe and sound, ready to resume their private scrap for their best girl's heart. "Sh\! and Like It." the other picture at the two theatres, which stars Zasn Pitts and Pert Kelton, deals with the effect of a sentimental mother sons; on the toughened sensibilities of a racketeering gang-leader and takes a bull's eye shot at these socalled "tough guys" by poking fun at them. It also good-naturedly ridicules "hifch-bPOw" theatrical producers, eerio-eritic-s and amateur thespians who give their all for art. Nat Pendlcton, Edward F.verett Ilorton. Ned Sparkes and Stanley Fields arc. in the supporting cast.

CLEM DAWE REVUE COMPANY. Success continues to attend the latest revue at His Majesty's Theatre.
