PARAMOUNT THEATRE.
Buried in a small cabjn beneath an avalanche of reck and dirt, with a flickering candle indicating the amount of oxygen in the, heavy air, are two men and one girl. When that candle goes out, so do the lives of those three. The man's heart never weakens. The coward cringes, perspiration running in streams down his distorted face as he stares at the weakening candle name. Thte is the tense "Hell's Hole" scene which''is -the ..climax of the William Fox feature now screening at the Paramount Theatre, with Charles Jones as the star. Incidentally, it is only o*ne of many tense scenes that make a thriller of the first ,'magnitude, with romance softening the clash of men and the dash of action. Ruth. Clifford plays the feminine lead opposite Jones. Maurice B. Flynn handles the heavy role, and others in the cast include Kathleen Kef, Hardy Kirkland, and Eugene Pallette. In addition to the picture programme, the management offer the third of the Musgiove Celebrity Vaudeville acts, Audrey Knight, a versatile character and burlesque artist from London, who proved a great favourite at the Tivoli Theatre, Sydney. She is said to be reminiscent of Wish Wynne, but she is more robust, and with a broader4 serise of "burlesque.
