AMUSEMENTS.

PARAMOUNT MUNICIPAL PICTURES. “ROMANCE OF HAPPY YALLEY” The Opera House was much too small to accommodate all who wished to see Paramount Pictures on Saturday evening, hundreds having to he turned away. The programme was a most excellent one. A most laughable comedy, produced by the Mack Sennett Company, “Uncle Tom Without a Cabin,” proved one of the best comics seen on the local screens. The star was “A Romance of Happy Yalley,” featuring Miss Lillian Harron. The production 13 by the Paramount-Art-craft Company, and is fully up to the big standard set by that firm. The programme will be repeated this ovening. THE GRAND. A BIG PARALTA PICTURE. “SAHARA.” Commencing at The Grand to-night, tho new programme to be screened should attract crowded houses for tho next three nights, when the big Paralta picture, “Sahara,” starring Louise Glaum, will hold the screen. This picture is in six acts, and shows Paris with its gaiety and appeal, Cairo with its mystery and luxury, and Shabar, a sun-blistered palm-clustered oasis in the desert of Sahara, in which Louise Glaum plays her pai’t, and displays an assortment of gowns which will appeal to all women. Tire supports will include Tatie’s Latest Gazette, and the third series of winter sports in Quebec. Reserves may be secured at Collier’s, or by ringing ’phono 1152. EVERYBODY’S. two starTpictures. A first-class programme was the verdict of patrons on leaving Everybody’S Theatre on Saturday night, after seeing the new change which featured two big Fox star pictures, “The Merry Go Round” and “The Beast.” The first picture is a very fine production and shows a travelling circus in full swing, with Peggy Hyland in the leading part. The second feature stars George Walsh in “The Beast.”
