EVERYBODY'S THEATRE.
__—♦— The main attraction at the Liberty Theatre this week, "Tho Primrose Path," is a picture which can be recommended to the most fastidious picture fan. It tells of one, Bruce Armstrong, who has found the wine of love and laughter too heady for him, and has taken the primrose path. At home his mother, with her crippled son, remains, placing implicit trust in her grown-up son. Thero is another who trusts him, and who does all that there is in woman's power to drag him back from his downward journey. MeriIyn Rerrill is a dancing girl at the night club Bruce Armstrong frequents. She has had reason to know the manager better than he, and does her best to prevent him from gambling with this man. He does so, how over, till the day of reckoning comes, when he flndß dishonoured cheques waved in his face, with the demand that he shall save himself by aiding in a diamond-smuggling enterprise or pay the price. He secures the diamond i from "Dude" Talbot, a crook, who can easily deceive by a well-simulated representation of a gentleman of leisure. _ From this stage the picture develops into a real thriller such as is rarely presented. Supporting is "The Sap," which tells of the mistaken courage of a soldier in the recent war, and is full of amusing incidents.
