AMUSEMENTS.

EVERYBODYS’ PICTURES • SUMMER I {AC' 11 KLORS ” —TO-NIGHT. Ii is doubtful if oven Warner Fabian anticipated the tremendous popularity of iiis latest novel, “ Summer bachelors.” Appearing serially in .McClure’s magazine, it proved a miracle circulation builder lor that monthly. Published as a hook it has kept the presses of lioni and Liveriglit busy night and day in an attempt to keep up.with the demand for the novel. And now Fox Films has made a moving picture version of it which is becoming even more popular than the hook itself. • This may he accounted for. in part, by the fact that Allan Dwelt directed the production and .Madge Bellamy with what is said to be a million dollar cast, interpreted the principal roles. best there lie a doubt in the minds of some wives that their husbands do not play while they are away, as pictured in “ Summer Bachelors,” let them see this satirically instructive and always amusing photodrania. Perhaps all husbands are not like the ones shown in ” Summer Bachelors,” who dive for a telephone booth to call up their favourite blonde as soon ins the little wife steps on .the train. But enough of them there are, to make every wife sit up and take notice. Wives should not miss this splendid expose of our jazz age. Even if they do not agree with the truth of the theme, they will find themselves laughing and wondering just the same. 'Hie list of stars who play important roles in “ Summer Bachelors,” which is to be shown at the Princess Theatre this evening includes such well known names of stage and screen as Allan Forrest. .Matt .Moore, Hale Hamilton. Olive Tell. Walter Catlett. Leila Hymns. Clifford Holland and Charles Winninger. The latest in topieals and a good two reel comedy complete the display. Usual prices will be charged.
