This evening a. iWilliam, Fox super production, “The Shadows of the East,” it is a -shadow of the past with a wonderful future. To-morrow (Christmas) night a special feature will be presented—“Htmting Big Game in. Africa with Guri and Camera.” Compressing two years of travel and adventure into two hours of thrills, Mr., H. A. Snow’s great film triumph, “Hunting Big Game in Africa with Gun and Camera,” screening at the Opera House Christmas night, has an immense appeal for old and young alike, for the scientist, for the educationist, for the mad in - the street—in fact, for folk of all ages of both sexes, and of all degrees' in life. Commencing Friday, Constance Talmadge- will air her views on matrimony in her latest comedy, “The Goldfish,” which Jerome- Storm recently directed for producer Joseph M.. Sclienck. In the picture Constance is married four times,'; is divorced twice, is .a widow once and turns down only two out of six proposals. Rather a hectic marital career! “The Goldfish” was adapted by C.

Za Su Pitts,. Edward Connelly, William Conklin, Nellie Bly Baker and Leo White. It is a First National picture.

The story tells of the love of Cameron Bruce, aiv officer in the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, for Jeanne Marat. Jeanne, by the way, is more than ably played by beautiful Zena Keefe, one of the most talented - artistes before the camera, to-dav, while the role of Bruce is in the capable hands of Robert^ -Elliott.. The balance of the cast includes J. Barney Sherry, known for his work in many Marshal] Ned an productions, Gypsv O’Brien, Roy. Gordon, and a truly remarkable child player. Master Joseph Pa Pew.
