LIBERTY THEATRE.
An excellent programme is presented at the Liberty Theatre this week. Ihe main picture ifl entitled "The Dress Parade." starring William Boyd and Bessie Love. It is a military romance, and deals with tho training of officers at the American Military College. West Point. There is an abundance of comedy, which lightens the picture considerably. The story deals with Vic Donovan (William Boyd), an athlete, who has entered for a cross-country race, and during its progress meets Janet Clcghorne (Betsie Love), daughter of the Commandant of West Point Military Academy. William Boyd gives a splendid characterisation of Tic Donovan, making the part live by much clever acting. Bessie Love, as usual, is a perfect romantic actress as Janet Cleghorne. Lovers of Hoot Gibson will find plenty of excitement in his latest Universal film, entitled "The Danger Rider." The story dopicts the star as the son of a prison warder who poses as a notorious criminal to win the heart of a girl whom ho baa never seen.
