SHORTT'S THEATRE.
Picturesque isles of the South Seas, England, India—all these are embraced in the peculiar plot of Thomas Meighan's latest Paramount picture, "The Man Who Saw To-morrow," which will be Bcreened at Shortt's Theatre to-day. Borne of the hardest acting that the good luck star has ever done is included in this story, which deals with a problem of divided affection in a most unusual manner. An unusual cast surrounds the star. Leatrioe Joy is the leading woman. Eva Novak, June Elvidge, John-Miltern, Laurance Wheat, Theodore Roberts, as a trick trader of the South Seas; Albert. Roicoe, Alec Francis, Robert Brower— are some of the best-known names. Several highly colourful sets in the East Indian sequence vie with the island views for beauty and picturesqueness. There are also New York episodes, as well as scenes in fashionable England. It is » distinctly cosmopolitan picture, with a plot that is among the most original of a decade. The supporting films are of a high order and include the latest gazettes, which deal with many topical subjects. Specially-selected music has been arranged to assist the programme.
