PARAMOUNT THEATRE.

To-night will see the final screening [of the current programme, which has j drawn crowded houses to the popular I i j Paramount Theatre. A real tip-top Fur- I ! mini drama is being shown in "The J Car of Chance." Douglas Fair- | banks was seen in his first Artcraft fea- j [ tare, wliich is entitled "In Again—! j Out Again," and is a veritable triumph \ for comedy-drama. IJehind the majestic ! Hudson, in peaceful and non-militant j I New Jersey, lives Teddy Rutherford, a ! | red blooded you Hi of metropolitan ideas, | aii'l a vigorous exponent of prepared- ■ ] ness. Before the unlives realise it, the ' I comanuiiiy becomes (he very hive of * munition mannfncutrers. and behind J: in;!';;,- rural walls immense qiiauiiiies of J; powder are being prep;; red for (lie nat- I ion's defence. In due time Teddy falls ' in love with Pacilice Ford, wlio happens t to be ihe daughter of an extreme paid- \ list. When Teddy's courtship is refused \ in favour of a. youthful pacifist, the vig- I orons youth vows that he is through I with the fair sex for all time, and imbibes freely in spirits nectarial. On awakening the next morning he finds himself in gaol with a pretty girl nursing a discoloured optic, the cause of ! which he does not seem able to remem- ■ her. After becoming acquainted with his fair nurse, Teddy decides that the world is not so bad after all. "The Purple Domino" and others complete a fine programme. There will bo a change at the matinee to-morrow, when Fatty Arbuckle will be seen in "A Reckless Romeo."
