ENTERTAINMENTS

CIVIC PICTURES. Bebe Daniels’ most dramatic offering, “Singed Wings,” is to be shown for the last time to-night in conjunction with Herbert Rawlinson’s latest “The Scarlet Car” and Reginald Denny in Round 10 of “The New Leather Pushers.” For dramatic strength there have been few pictures to equal “Singed Wings,” the story of a dancer, a dream and her destiny. The story holds a fascination that outweighs all other considerations, even the beautiful and artistic details with which the famous artistdirector, Penrhyn Stanlaws, has invested the whole eight reels. The story is unusual —most unusual!—and is told in most unusual fashion, and the photoplay is wonderful. Herbert Rawlinson has an attractive role in “The Scarlet Car,” a Richard Harding Davies’ story that films exceptionally well. To be arrested thirty times in thirty days for “speeding” was Rawlinson's record when he was fired from his job and sent home, where he landed in the thick of a political fight, and in which he took a hand. In Round 10 of “The Leather Pushers,” Reginald Denny and ius company are seen making a moving picture, an aspect which gives added interest to this round. The whole programme is unusual and should not be missed. ALBION THEATRE. MAHLON HAMILTON, LOUISE GLAUM AND CHARLES JONES. A more happy blending of artists, dramas and comedy than that screening at the Albion to-night for the last time it would indeed be hard to find. Mystery, coupled with good story, splendid dressings and staging, is to be found in plenty in the Louise Glaum play “I am Guilty.” It contains all three and the gowns worn by Louise Glaum will be the envy of the women folk. Do you like the great outdoors? Then the Western drama “The Boss of Camp Four,”

starring the very popular Charles Jones, will give you enough action and thrills to last you a week. If you enjoy the lighter side of life then the Sunshine comedy “Roaring Lions and Wedding Bells” will keep you in gay mood for a full twenty minutes. A travelogue of world events by Fox completes the bill guaranteed 100 per cent, good entertainment. The final screenings take place to-night. Seats may be reserved by telephoning the Albion (738). WESLEY BARRY BECOMES INFECTED WITH KISSITIS. Wesley Barry has “kissitis.” He just can’t stand the delicious confection of a kiss. Marie Prevost tried it as a surprise during the filming of his latest picture, “Heroes of the Street,” No sooner did Freckles feel the imprint of soft, lips on his face than he gave out a fierce yell and made for the out-of-doors. Everybody thought, a mosquito or something had bit him. Director William Beaudine was so enthusiastic about the leap to safety made by Wesley that he decided it was too good to miss, so in it went as part of the picture. “Heroes of the Street” is a Warner Brothers production and will be seen at the Albion Theatre commencing to-morrow night. Seats may be reserved at the Albion now, telephone (738).
