AMUSEMENTS

COSY THEATRE. “ZOO IN BUDAPEST.” “Zoo in Budapest” is to be shown finally at the Cosy Theatre to-night. Reserves at Perry's, 'phone 2496. TO-MORROW'S ATTRACTIONS.

Bright entertainment for young and old is promised at the Cosy Theatre tomorrow. At the special matinee in the afternoon the amateur trials for juvenile performers will be continued. A varied programme of six items will be presented. The picture programme to be shown at both afternoon and evening sessions is headed by “What! No Beer?” Buster Keaton and Jimmy Durante are seen as a pair of comic characters, one of whom cannot laugh, while the other cannot cry. Alternating between excitement and hilarious comedy, the picture centres around the running of a brewery. Buster is a taxidermist and “Schnozzle” the town barber, but by accident they are involved in the operation of a wholesale brewery. And, as if being caught in the toils of ignorance of beer-making were not enough, they are also caught between the fire of two beer-running gangs who seek to control the output of their brewery. The picture is treated entirely in a humorous mood, but with plenty of excitement thrown in. Phyllis Barry, the popular Australian actress, has the leading feminine role. In the supporting cast are Rosco Ates, John Miljan, Henry Armetta, Edward Brophy and others. Seats may be reserved at Perry’s, ’phone 2496.
