CRYSTAL PALACE.
Owing to the success oi the exceptionally fine Paramount talkie production, entitled "The Canary Murder Case," the management of tho Crystal Palace Theatre hav3 arranged for the extension of its seaaon for another week. Taken from Jthe . famous detective story of the same title by S. S. van Dine, the interest it haa created is hardly surprising. Further, the cast itself is of a very high, order. William Powell, with his remarkably fine voice, and fresh from his triumph in "Interference," to-g-ether with Louise Brooks, James Hall, Jean Arthur, and Gustav von Seyffertitz, all contribute to make the picture what it is. The plot is well worked out, and right up to the end the audience is kept giiftbsmg who is the Canary's murderer, 'fhe suspense is well sustained, and the result •n enormous surprise. An excellent supporting programme is also shown. t
