AMUSEMENTS.

♦- CIVIC THEATRE. " LOVE ON WHEELS." "Love on Wheels" is the merriest awl most irresponsible musical comedy OTtf turned out from British studios. AtMUmcta at the Civic Theatre on Saturday »nd Monday expected something good in the way of sparkling humour, and it was plain that they wire not disappointed. Jack Hulbert, •toftrjrbody'a favourite, is seen as a (®llptly shop assistant, whose job it la to toe Backed at all hours of the day. Bui! Jove of a girl, a fellow passenger In a bua, makes him aspire to greater thing*, and he Anally ends up as man-Afar-of his firm, but not before he SM» through many hilarious misunBtaadinga. All through the show ht lings and dances in his own inimitable manner, and his burlesque class«Mß dunce in the various departments of the store makes the most amusing aaqnenee ever filmed. Hulbert is partnered by another clever and popular comedian, Gordon Harker, who is eem as tt Cockney bus conductor with a.teaehant for "matchmaking." The eeew where the two pals visit all the night-clubs in search of charming and vivacious Leonora Corbett, makes audience* laugh 30 much that at times «• dialogue cannot be heard. Leonora Carbttt, who sings, acts, and dances charmingly, is heard with Jack Hulbert in "Hungry for You" and "Shall W« Wear Pyjamas?" the hit of the abow.
