"THE MAGNIFICENT BBUTE." Coming: to the St. James. . Victor McLaglen, winner of the last academy award for his outstanding screen performance, is the star ofUn? versal's "The , Magnificent Brute," which opens at the St. James Theatr* on Friday next. The screen story relates the adventures of a great big fellow, attractive to women, who is a fool for blondes. He is a giant of a man who turns out steel for .a living and lets the girl he loves steal away his judgment. Then he reaches the point where he is torn between two blondes. The solution of his dilemma provides an intense climax for the offering. Binnie Barnes is ravishing as the girl who leads him a merry chase. The glamorous widow is portrayed by Jean Dixon. Between them both Victor McLaglen is kept very busy. William Hall, tall and handsome, is seen as the menace. Henry' Armetta contributes his humorous interpretation to the picture. Others in the cast are Billy Burrud and Edward Norris. "The Magnificent Brute" presents situations never before filmed. The tremendous sweep and power of men. making steel in settings that glow and flame is impressed with unusual photography. Bursting showers of gleaming sparks illuminate many of the scenes with brilliant splendour. "The Magnificent Brute" is a fascinating revelation of manhandling.

THE LRVIN SHOW. Entries in tfie main classes for the Horowhenua A. and P. Association's Show, commencing on January.29, far exceed last year's figures. Sheep, cattle, and horses are all well ahead. There is, however, a falling-off in the home industry and school classes, but taking it all round the entries are exceptionally good, and augur well for the success of the show.
