KING'S THEATRE.

"Trifling Women," the fine Metro film drama at the King's Theatre, has reached its last two screenings. It is an unusual picture built up in. unusual fashion—a tale is told within a tale. The story opens in a quiet French village, where a young miss proceeds to set the village youths one against the other. Her father, a. novelist,' brings her to her seiises by recounting the plot of his latest writing, "Black Orchids.": and it is this inner tale which provides the . major theme. An interesting Gazette shows world hap-" penings. in bright style, and' this week's comedy races through, nonsensical situations happily enough. The orchestral music is most enjoyable. " The Go-Getter," an adaptation by Paramount of the well-knawn story by Peter B.- Kyne. will commence a season at the King's Theatre on Friday. The story _deals with, the adventures of a live-wire youth, who sets out with determination to get the things he goes after. It is. the best story of modern business life that the world of literature has yet seen, and now it comes to the;screen with a cast that'rivals others in its excellence. One scene in particular is said to be a revelation in photography. This is the race at night between an aeroplane and a speeding express train, culminating when the 'plane forges ahead and-alights on the railroad track several hundred yards in advance of the train. The nagging of the train in one of the most breath-catch-mg incidents that has'been shown on the screen for some time, A splendid* supporting programme will also be screened, while special attention has been given by the musical director (Mr.'L. D. Austin) to the numbers which will be rendered by. the King's Select Orchestra The box plan is at The Bristol, and at the theatre after 5.30.
