AMUSEMENTS.
CRYSTAL PALACE. Harold Bell Wright is one of the best sellers of the day ] where exciting novels dealing with the West are concerned. In his writings he displays more of skill than some modern authors of this style, and his stories never step over the bounds of possibility into the -airy realms where impossibly lusty heroes: do improbably wonderful deeds. VA Son of His Father," now screening .at the Crystal Palace, is one of his best stories, 'and the. cast, including as it does, Bessie Love and Raymond Hatton, most-skilled of-character actors, adds to the enjoyment' of a' .'well•balanced plot full of incident" and adventure. One of those far too few British films is the supporting picture,'in which Hilda Bayley plays' the lead. ."The Woman Who Obeyed" is an interesting study of modem English life. , The Crystal Palace, Orchestra contributes an excellent musical programme. ■
