KING’S THEATRE. The comedy romance, “None But (he Brave,” which was screened for the first time at the King's Theatre last night, is one of Fox's best productions. . Charles Morton, as the ambitious and cocksure college boy, who is in searcli of worldly fame is responsible for most of the humour, and with his are connected several well-known Hollywood names. The student, alter, a successful career in college sport, sets out to do as well in the business world. Through his rather over-en-terprising personality he becomes employed bv an Insurance company, and ins lite as ah agent is full of involved episodes. While staving nt a fashionable seaside resort he meets Mary, a girl who rims a hotdog stand, and who, encouraged by Charlie to enter a beauty competition, spends the prize before it is won. As a last resort tlie student enters a motor-boat race, and when well In the lead falls out to rescue a fellow contestant in dillleulties. His courageous net is well rewarded, and Mary’s financial affairs are adjusted. Freckles, a small newsboy, takes a foremost place through Ills hero-worship of Charlie. Beautiful colouring and grouping are features of the beauty pageant in which Marr takes part. Others In the cast are Sallv Phipps, Farrell Macdonald, Tyler Brooks, and Tom Kennedy. A good supporting programme includes a Fox news, reels, and comedy. Very enjoyable orchestral selections were played. KILBIRNIE KINEMA. The Paramount, production, “The Big Killing." starring Raymond Hatton and Wallace Beery, was shown successfully at tlie Kllbfrnie, Kiherna last evening. The story centres around a mountain fend between 4wo families, the Beagles and the Hicks, in which Beery and Hatton posing as sharp Shooters become Involved. A pretty romance arouses tlie old enmity between the families and continues through the comedy sequences of the picture. The other attraction was a First National production starring Johnny Hines in “China Town Charlie,” tlie screen version of Owen Davis’s stage play of a bus driver’s adventures in the Chinese quarters of New York. Louise Lorraine has the leading feminine role, and Is ably assisted bv Anna May Wong. Included in this fine programme was a Paramount news reel. The Kllbirnte Symphony Orchestra provides good incidental music. CONCERT AT LOWER HUTT.
