KINU'S THEATRE.
The P. G. Wodehouse touch is very evident in "A Gentleman of Leisure," the stellar attraction on the programme at the King's Theatre. The trouble starts from the time that Jack Holt wagers that he will secure an autographed photograph of a girl whom he has just seen for the first time. Included on the attractive programme are a gazette, a Burton Holmes travelogue, and views of the Japanese earthquake disaster. An admirable-suite of music is rendered by the King's Select Orchestra. "Fog Bound," one of the season's most lively ..screen dramas, with Dorothy Dalton, offered by Paramount, heads the big double bill at the King's Theatre next Friday. Miss Dalton plays the role of an independent ghi to whom a wealthy idler, a role played by David Powell, is attracted. In a raid on a fashionable gambling den, Gale's father, a revenue officer, is shot dead. A confession on the part of one of the people who witnessed the crime brings the story to a fascinating climax. "Fog Bound" is interpreted by an all-star cast, headed by Maurice Costello. The other attraction is entitled "Crinoline and Romance," with Viola Dana as the leading player. She is seen as a young girl, who- has been brought up in rigid surroundings- by her stern old father. Youth rebels, however, and she desires to get out to the pleasure world and "be like other girls." In addition, ex-cellent-supports will be screened, conir bined with a delightful musical programme by the King's Select Orchestra. The Box Plan is at The Bristol; ater 5.30 at the theatre. "
