A GAY COMEDY.
EDWARD EVERETT HORTON AT 1 REGENT. I As gay and merry a comedy as you could wish to see shows at the Kegent Theatre to-night in "Let's Make A Million," a story of one man's bonus and how it grew, with Edward Everett Horton as the vet, and charming Charlotte Wynters as the girl he intended to marry—without reckoning with the "pixilated" sisters. To Horton, a typical small-town business man in 9 typical American small town, the bonus is nothing short of a godsend. One of the things he wants to do is to make Miss Wynters his wife. But his maiden* aunts, played by Margaret Seddon and Margaret McWade, the famous "pixilated" pair, have other plans for his money. They want him to use it to buy a monument to honour his grandfather, the founder of the town, and when he balks theyi resort to convenient trieks which made them famous. But everything works out very nicely, you may be sure, after Horton loses not only all of his own money in a stock swindle, but the money of most of his pals. But Horton not only gets his money back in an entirely unsuspected way, but becomes a rich man. The film ends with him and Miss Wynters bound for Niagara Falls after a sories of hilarious circumstances.
