AMUSEMENTS. MORE REMARKABLE FILM FARE! MORE REMARKABLE FILM FARE! CIVIC PICTURES. 7.30—T0-NIGHT and FRIDAY—7.3O 7.30—T0-NIGHT and FRIDAY—7.3O (No Pictures To-morrow). Paramount Pictures present another Smashing Hit! GEORGE BANCROFT GEORGE BANCROFT GEORGE BANCROFT GEORGE BANCROFT BETTY COMPSON, BACLANOVA, MITCHELL LEWIS, CLYDE COOK, “THE DOCKS OF NEW YORK” "THE DOCKS OF NEW YORK” "THE DOCKS OF NEW YORK” "THE DOCKS OF NEW YORK” “THE DOCKS OF NEW YORK” “THE DOCKS OF NEW YORK" Good strong drama in which Bancroft once again shows his specialty as the “strong silent man” of the masses, quiet, unhurried of movement, but resistless as a tidal wave. The whole of this picture carries so tense an interest, owing to the superlative artistry of the actors, that every move is watched with almost painful attention. Betty Compson, with her weary eyes and pathetic mouth, gives masterly expression to the girl with a past who has had no hope for a future until lubberly Bill the stoker comes her way. Striking-looking Baclanova adds to her laurels, and Clyde Cook relieves the story with natural humour. Naturalness, indeed, is the keynote of the whole, and it is a bet that the whole mighty theatre does not contain a throat without a lump in it when the slight yet dramatic incident takes place of Baclanova straining the waif to her fiercely while her own eyes are seen over the girl’s shoulder filled with tears. Also CLARA BOW SHE’S CLARA BOW NAUGHTY CLARA BOW BUT CLARA BOW SHE’S CLARA BOW NICE! in "THE LAWFUL CHEATER” “THE LAWFUL CHEATER" "THE LAWFUL CHEATER” "THE LAWFUL CHEATER” “THE LAWFUL CHEATER" She did a sleight-of-hand with the hearts of all the men she knew. Some were mad —one was glad! But they all learned something—and so will you. Christie Comedy—"LAY ON MacDUFF” Christie Comedy—“LAY ON MacDUFF" PRICES JUST AS USUAL. JUMBLE SALES.
