At the Theatre
PRINCESS THEATRE Friday and Saturday A laugh creating, amusing bit of nonsense comes to the Princess on Friday and Saturday, in the guise of those prime comedy favourites Gracie Allen and George Burns, whose latest fun film, “Here Comes Cookie,” measures up as first rate comedy entertainment. A powerful, timely dramatisation of the undercover activities of the Federal T-Men, guardians of the U. S. Treasury, provides the motivating theme of “Counterfeit,” which will also be screened. An adult recommendation goes with these pictures. Monday Sparkling comedy, captivating singing, inspiring dancing, fine acting, lovely songs—put them all together and add a story that is as fresh as to-morrow’s news, and you have “The Music Goes Round,” the picture for Monday evening. Wednesday Wallace Beery—Barbara Stanwyck —John Boles. These three great stars, together for the first time, enact their greatest roles in the roistering, romantic, “A Message to Garcia,” the picture that will be screened on Wednesday. The picture has a
plot written about one of history’s most fascinating exploits. The adult recommendation goes with this picture.
