ENTERTAINMENTS.
CENTRAL THEATRE PICTURES. TO NIGHT. THE ORDEAL. To-night’s attraction" is a Paramount film, “The Ordeal,” featuring Agnes Ayres. The story, written by W. Somerset Maugham, is said to be a most unusual picture. In the first place, the villian is disposed of in the first reel—but his influence hangs over the remainder of the picture. There’s a crippled sister who becomes an important figure when a cure makes her into a super-flapper. And as an overtone to it all, a will which stands as a barrjer to the happiness of several persons. Miss Ayres is splendidly convincing as the young widow.
