THE KING'S THEATRE.
The comprehensive programme screen, ed at- The King's Theatre last evening attracted a large number of people. An outstanding and, popular picture was that depicting "Our Army," showing in clear and vivid detail the method of training in th* British Army. The men were shown at Work and at play, and the series included bridge-building, gymnastics, tent-pegging, some clever trick riding, a battery in action, and many other phases of military life. The picture, which is one of the finest of its kind screened in Wellington, received cordial applause. A scenic film of merit was that giving glimpses of picturesque Cairo, rrtosque, and minaret, and many beautiful buildings of Moorish architecture passing ifl quick succession, anfl th« "Porcelain W&rks at Worcester" formed interesting subject matter of an industrial nature. Comedy was a strong item on the programme, and roars of laughter greeted "The Leading Lady," a particularly fuftny and cleverly-acted study. t A good dramatic film was included in "The Atonement," the usual stirring Wild West story, and there Was also an excellent budge* of the Animated Gazette, dealing with current events at Home and abroad.
