King's l'heatro to-night is headed by a Vitagraph star comedy entitled "C.0.J).,> or Three of a Kind," an original and -wholesomo story of the funny experiences of three men, each of whose initials are C.0.D., whilst on a vacation, in which a train wreck at night leaves them unhurt, but very 6cantily clothed. They are mistaken for oonvicts, and generally have a rather bad time of it for a while. Their respective wives, also holiday-mak-ing, have experiences of their own, the whole making one of the funniest films possible, without the slap-stick and vulgar methods often adopted. The programme also includes"King Albert of Belgium at the Front," some magnificent views of the French and Belgian Armies in action), "A Girl's Grit" (a powerful railroad story); "The Man Who Could N6t Sleep" (in which a remarkable theory is exemplified); a beautiful coloured scenio of "The Isles of the Zuyder Zee," and the latest Pathe War Gazette. , EVERYBODY'S THEATRE. To-day at noon a special feature at Everybody's will be a dramatic picture of great power, and, interest. The 2CCOit. melodrama, "The Secret Agent from Russia," tells of the efforts of a blackmailing gang to obtain possession of a box of securities. This study is very cleverly worked out. A story that has sensational happenings as its leading feature is "The Steeplejack's Revenge." Billy Reeves is seen in a comedy of the sea entitled "Billy Joins the Navy," and another comedy is "Over and' Back." "Gaumont Graphic," "Scarborough, England," and "Labour- 1 Day. in Wellington" are. also on tha programme.. Special selections for each picture have been arranged and will bo'played by the.Symphony Trio, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert -Bloy and Mr: F; Johnstone.

One of their mostnotable successes' was "The Middleman." "The Man in the Attio" is said to be quite up to their highest standard. A strong supporting programme includes "Mashers and Splashers," a World Film comeHy, showing some great fun among a bevy of bathing beauties in A special film shows British heroes being presented -with listingnish'ed conduct medals at Harefield. The Topical Budget is exceptionally interesting,- portraying, -inter alia, a body of German prisoners captured at Loos. '
