COSY THEATRE.

"BABES IN TOYLAND."

That notorious pair, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, are to be seen in a setting of music and beauty in "Babes in Toyland," which is to be shown again at the Cosy Theatre to-night. An M.G.M. production of Victor Herbert's delightful operetta, "Babes in Toyland" is staged in fantastically gorgeous sets and presents a story that is interesting to both grownups and youngsters. Beautiful voices, stirring music and the antics of Laurel and Hardy provide an ample variety of entertainment. As the star boarders of the Widow P’eep.' who lives in "The Shoe," the comedians become involved in a series of events which lead to their being ducked in a village pool, banished from the Kingdom of Toyland and involved in other hilarious adventures. They have their own funny way of overcoming their difficulties and getting back to favour again. High lights of the film are the beautiful rendition of Victor Herbert's "March of the Toys," "Castle in Spain," and "Go to Sleep, Slumber Deep." Charlotte Henry is a delightful 80-P’eep. Henry Kleinbach, a 22-year-old actor, does great work in his first important film role as Barnaby. The singing of Felix Knight and Virginia Karns add much to the film. Seats may be reserved at Perry's, 'phone 2496.
