MAJESTIC CINEMA. “THE MENACE.” “Menace” is the new Paramount murder mystery, at present screening at the Majestic Cinema, with Gertrude Michael, Paul Cavanagh, John Lodge and Henrietta Crosman heading the cast. In this picture, a madman whose identity is unknown, threatens the lives of two men ami a beautiful' woman, and vows that he will end their lives suddenly and horibly. Before the climax is reached, one person is dead and one seriously wounded. And the killer is still unknown, desperately eager to carry out his threat of vengeance. Although a net is fast encircling him, the madman is as sool as ice; to atain his purpose, to know that the years of plotting have not been in vain, he is willing that even he should die himself. “Menace” was directed by Ralph Murphy, whose ability to endow mystery stories with sinister implications has been proven by hie past successes. MAJESTIC CINEMA “WAKE UP AND DREAM” A man with ideas can. think of lots of little schemes . . . and sometimes they work. The principal requirements is a little more than the usual amount of nerve. Roger Pryor illustrates this very fact in “Wake Up and Dream,” the Universal comedy with music, the feature coming to the Majqstic Theatre to-morrow, with Pryor, Russ Columbo, June Knight, Catharine Doucet and Henry Armetta in featured roles. Pryor, Columbo and June Knight comprise a small-time vaudeville trio stranded in Atlantic City, and the fast-talking Pryor is the scheming member of the “act” who somehow manages to keep the little troupe in doughnuts and coffee when the going is hard. It is a rollicking screen-play filled with amusing incidents, and qualifies as one of the most hilarious pictures of the season. The cast of “Wake Up and Dream” Also includes Andy Devine, Wini Shaw and Richard Carle, and the picture was directed by Kurt Neumann. LATE MRS F. MICKLESON Bequiem Mass for the repose of the soul of the late Mrs F. Mickleson, of Tiriraukawa, who died suddenly at Dannevirke on July 31 while staying with relatives, was celebrated at St. Mary ’s Catholic Church last Thursday morning, the officiating clergyman being Rev. Father Phillips. The funeral was held in the afternoon, when some 52 cars followed the hearse to the Taihape cemetery, where the deceased was reverently laid at rest. The service at the graveside was conducted by Rev. Father Doolaghty, Rev. Father Phillips and Rev. Father Forest. The pall bearers were Messrs H. H. Harris, D. McCarthy, F. Donovan, J. H. Thorpe, L. Brooky and T. Muir. The many wreaths and floral emblems that were received provided a silent but eloquent tribute to the high esteem in which the lute Mrs Mickleson was held. Deceased was born in Palmerston North iu 1877 and settled at Tiriraukawa with her husband some 34 years. The difficulties besetting the settlers m the early days can better be imagined than described, but Mrs Mickleson never despaired and was at all times a help and an inspiration to her husband ami family. iShe entered into the social life of the district with enthusiasm and was noted for her warm hospitality and kittdly disposition. She was a.

staunch supporter of St. Mary’s Ghurch and took a leading part iu movements organised for the benefit of the church. It goes without saying that Mrs Mickleson wdll be greatly missed, .nd her untimely death has cast a gloom over the district in which she was su'ch a popular figure. She is survived by her husband and family of six sons and five daughters, namely Messrs A. J. Mickleson (Winiata). F. L. Mickleson (Utikui, Clarence, Raphael, Basil and Lawrence Mickleson, of Tiriraukawa.
