KING’S 11 ALL, TO-NIGHT. To-night Mr Briton presents a programme full erf power, the star drama being “ The Old Melody ” by the Universal Company. A. love of music forms a bond of sympathy between two country neighbours. One melody in particular makes an appeal to both, and it is their custom to play it as a dilet/ The two get married, and live happily for a year or so, until indiffereneo o■ i the part of the husband leads to a separation. Realising how much his wife is to him, he returns, and, as he approaches the house, hears the strain of t ie old familiar melody. The time revives old hopes and old feelings and, needless to state, a happy reconciliation follows* In addition there will be screened “ The Brighter Star,” a Pa the play of enduring charm and sentiment ; “ The Blue Danube,” pourtraying one the scenic wonders of the world; “Calamity Anne takes a Trip,” bubbling over with fun and merriment; “ Mexico City,” a scenic of groat interest at the present time, as i! shows the centre in which revolution is rampant; “ Carmen of the Isles,” a Selig drama of immense human interest “Matthew and his Little Pig,” a Gaumont comedy that radiates merriment; “The Mirror,” an A.B. drama of a country girl and the Morse code; and “ Billy and the Black Hand,” a sidesplitting* eclectic comedy with a roaring climax; the whole firming a programme of unequalled merit and sterlingquality. On Satin! ay and Monday nights there will be a complete change of programme the pictures to be screened becoming brighter, better and newer as the • new contracts for film supplies come into operation.
