QUEEN'S THEATRE.
J. K. Mac Donald's First National photoplay, "Frivolous Sal," featuring Eugene O'Brien, will be screened at the Queen's Theatre this evening. A thrilling story of a pioneer mining town of the west, in which a girl and a, small boy help a. man to find himself, is the main theme of this photoplay. The cast includes Mac Busch, Ben Alexander, Mildred Harris, Mitchell Lewis, and Tom Santschi. "Frivolous Sal" has a scenic background, the like of which has rarely been seen on the screen in a dramatic production. Some of the story's most important action takes place in a huge cavern that a stream of ice has carved out under the famous Nisqually glacier, near the top of Mount Rainier. There is thrilling action from the start, with a climax in which two men battle for the love of a girl while suspended from a wire tramway over a deadly gorge. An added special attraction will be an eccentric dancing act by Mr. Phil Barry and Miss Hazel Martin. The turn by these two young people is stated to be one of the most novel ever presented in Wellington. There will be a specially strong supporting programme, including Gaumont Graphic, with wonderful views of the All Blacks in England, a beautiful mountain tale, entitled "The Flower of Hate," and a comedy, "No Loafing," featuring Poodles Hanaford. The box plan is at The Bristol until 5 p.m., after at the theatre. A special children's matinee will be held to-morrow at 2.30, when every child will be given a free cake of chocolate.
