AMUSEMENTS AND MEETINGS
THE MAJESTIC. To-night sejes the final screening of one of the most enjoyable programmes sceen in Wanganui for a long long time, at The Majestic Theatre, when “Rin-Tin-Tin, the wondpr dog, holds pride of place in “Jaws of Steel.” It is by far the most thrilling of Rinty pictures, and that is saying a lot. His hundreds of admirers will find in this latest production, thrilling stunts, bits of humour which even his earlier films have nut had. The other feature on the programme is “The Triumph of the Rat,” featuring that well-known and popular English artist Ivor Nov.ello. This is the sequel to “The Rat,” this reviewer votes it equally as thrilling and fascinating. It is a story of the Parisian Underworld and grips one from start to finish. ‘ ‘Faust ’ ’ To-morrow. Something extra special in the way of screen fare with orchestral accompaniment is promised for to-morrow, iwhen “Faust” will be presented with an augmented orchestra. Emil Jannings plays the part of Mephisto and a new find in the person of Camilla Horn that of Marguerite. It is a UFA production and according to advance reports from other centres, it has created a sensation and has been responsible for record business wherever shown. THE DUCHESS THEATRE, ARAMOHO. “Orchids and Ermine,” featuring Colleen Moore, will be the First National production screened at the Duchess Theatre to-night (Tuesday) A good supporting programme will also be shown.
