WAIPAWA THEATRE

"STOLEN HOLIDAY" TO-NIGHT Moments of sheer buauty con trust vividly with moments of the tensest sort of dramatic suspense in "Stolen Holiday," the new First Natioual romantie drania showing at ihe llegent Theatre, Waipawa, to-night Mouday. The picture stars Kay l'rancts, whose "Give Me Your Heart," and "The White Angel," are still fresh in the memories of her multitude of admirers. This time Miss Francis appears first as an obscure little mannequin in a tiny Parisian modiste shop, with ambitions to become the greatest contouriere in the world. We see her progress from better to better things, until finally she' has reached her goal. She dictates modes for all the world. She wears, uf course, the most gorgeous of creations, which ieave the women in Ihe auaifcnce gasping in admiration. What Kay herself doesn't wear is worn ly oixty oJd tnannequins, all tall and sler.dei and professional, who furmshJi{ a treat for masculine as well gs fctniit'jje eyes. But the Parisian giri s progress has not been easy. It has been aided largely through a rascally financier, Claude Rains, whose schemes finally tumble about his shoulders and cause [political scandals in France, and even street riots in Paris.
