AT THE STRAND A TREBLE-FEATURE PROGRAMME The change of programme, which oom- \ rnences at 11 o'clock at the Strand to-day, comprises three pictures, all of a bright, cheerful nature. “Peck’s Bad Boy*' hao already proved one of the most success ful screen offerings presented in Wellington. Little Jackie Coogan, who jumped into fame as “The Kid,” is delightful in the name part, and a strong part supports the little chap. The story is full of interest as well as amusement, and the sub-titles by the famous humorist, Irvin S. Cobb, add not a littlo to the comedy. Although the picture makes a strong appeal to children, it is enjoyed even more by full adults. The 6econd feature is the film version of the^ wellknown musical comedy, “Oh, Boy!” with June Caprice and Creighton Hale in the principal roles. “Oh, Boy!” has been aptly described as a breezy outburst ot merriment, with sunshine, smiles, and feminine charms in the ascendant. The story centres -around the visit of a musical comedy to a college town, and the escapades of the chorus when invited to an inspection of the college. Still another comedy picture is on the programme—“Snoot}*,” the almost human chimpanzee, in a hilarious story, 'Ready to 'Serve,” while the “Pathe Gaette” completes a delightful entertainment. Special attention is drawn to the matinee to-morrow, when “Peekes Bad Boy” will be screened at 2 o'clock, in addition to which “Money Mad,” a Christie comedy, will be screened. OTAKI CHORAL SOCIETY PERFORMANCE AT WELLINGTON. Lovers of choral music jnay look forward to something in the nature of a musical treat in connection with the forthcoming visit of the Otaki Choral Societv in this city, and judging by the interest already being shown In musical circles it seems certain that the Concert Chamber will he taxed to its full capacity on Monday, July 3rd. Under the baton of that distinguished musician, Mrs H. G. E. Stahle, professionally known as Madame Josephine Ottlee, A.K.A.M., the choir will perform that beautiful cantata, “The Rose Maiden,” by Frederic H. Cowen, also “The Gallia’' (Ch. Gounod), a beautiful though difficult motet for soprano and chorus. A number of sole items will be performed by leading members of the choir, and selected Maori folk songs bv native voices will be an additional feature. Popular prices are announced, and natrons would be wise to book early at the Bristol.
