AMUSEMENTS.

CIVIC THEATRE

« LOVE ON WHEELS."

Jack Hulbert. has not been seen to better advantage than in "Love on Wheels," now screening for its last three days at the Civic Theatre. He is in the picture all the time, acting the stupid fool, singing and dancing his way through one ludicrous scene to another. He is ably assisted by that excellent comedian, Gordon Harker, whose idea of a Cockney bus conductor is apparently to take a kindly interest in all the passengers who regularly use the vehicle of which he has charge. He finds that Jack Hulbert lacks ambition and sets out to assist him in the customary Harker manner with immense success. As Jane Russell, the girl of Hulbert's heart, Leonora Corbett possesses great charm and personality. She is heard with Hulbert in the lilting and haunting duet, "Hungry for You," in one of the many departments of the famous Selfridge's London stores. Directed by Victor Saville, this light, gay story with its catchy musical refrains is entertainment from first to last. Box plans are open at the Civic Theatre from 10 a.m. daily.
