Large audiences were present at all the sessions at the Queen's Theatre on Saturday, andi tho programme met with general acceptance and approval. The principal drama, which is entitled "The Flames of Chance, ' tells a good story of sustained interest, and with a Chaplin comedy, and ono or two other pictures makes up a most enjoyable entertainment. For to-day only at tho Plaza tho chief attraction will bo 'the bright and original photo-play, "Flying Colours." To-morrow and Wednesday the famous story, "The Whip. ' one of tho best racing dramas yofc screened, will bo presented; and from Thursday to Saturday a Metro star entitled "The Dawn of Love" will be shown. A comedy, Gazette, and other subjects, also The Girl and Game" serial (No. 9) will be screened from Wednesday to Saturday afternoon. "Gates of Gladness," i n which Miss Madge Evans is the star artiste, fills the leading place in n good programme at Everybody's Theatre. The present selection of pictures amply sustains the reputation Everybody' Theatro has earned for giving the public a really good two hours' entertainment. Tho t story told in tho film-drama "Blue Jeans," is an unusuallv appealing one. and it gains a great deal of added force by the fine acting of Viola Dana, in the leading role. A good comedy and several other varied subjects go to the making up of an admirable entertainment.
