MAJESTIC THEATRE

“LADIES SHOULD LISTEN” AND “SMOKY” The first feature on the programme which commences today at the Majestic, wiK he “Ladies Should Listen.” This bubbling, Continental comedy gives Cary Grant «• chance to display his abilities to the fui.lest extent as a competent farceur. The story is one of complicated situations in which a. young Parisian man about town finds himself with an option on a nitrate concession on his hands plus one of his many sweethearts who, with her husband, is trying to rob him of the concession. The second feature is “Smoky” in which Victor Jury, who has the leading role, portrays the part, of a cowhand, who tames and befrienua “Smoky”, the wifi] horse. The friendship of man and animal’, becomes so great that when “Smoky” is stolen, his friend gives up love and job to ’go in search of him. The life of “Smoky” his rise and fall, forms the basis pf the production. The final reunion of man and' beast is said to provide a stirring climax. It is reported that the Fox studios have done more than justice to Will James’s hook and that, a’l tho panoramic beauty of the West, including the vigor and thrills of the rodeos, is said to he transported' to the screen with astonishing realism. There will also be a further instalment, of the serial “Pirate Treasure.”
