. With a big cast weaving in and out of the quaint picturesque Flemish background, Jackie Coogan made “A Boy of Flanders,” which will be shown at the Opera House to-night and again to-morrow night. “A Boy of Flanders” is the most charming picture Jackie lias eyer appeared, in. TTie scenes are studded with the lazy windmills of Holland. They shift to Antwerp, with its glorious old world architecture, alive with hundreds of people moving about in the wide pantaloons and wooden shoes of. Holland. Jackie is clicking along in his wooden shoes and blooming trousers, gazing in wide-eyed wonder :at sights his. young mind can hardly ■ grasp. Picture to yourself this little boy alone in a world struggling to have his artistic genius recognised. Pathos rollicking comedy, tragedy, humour, all are woven together and blended with as fine a harmony as can be imagined. UNITED DANCES. Dancers-will be pleased to note that the United Club have now engaged a full orchestra to play for their Monday night dances. These dances have always been most popular, and the latest addition will be a boon to the many patrons who visit the pavilion every Monday night.
