ENTERTAINMENTS.

AURORA THEATRE PICTURES. TO-NIGHT. NAUGHTY BUT NICE. ' Tlie difficulties that may arise through the introduction of a total stranger as one’s, husband are. depicted in Colleen Moore’s latest comedy, “Naughty But Nice,” to be shown- tonight. In the story Colleen introduces Hallam Cooley as her husband to get herself out of an innocent but embarrassing situation. Then tlie trouble begins,,with*,well-meaning friends doing their best to arrange] everything for the “newlyweds.” TUESDAY NIGHT. A HERO ON HORSEBACK. An unqualified treat is in store for patrons to-morrow night, when “A He.ro on Horseback” will lie screened, witli Hoot Gibson playing a new role in an old setting. WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. THE FLAG LIEUTENANT. To those! ivho have at various times referred to the mediocrity of Brit’sh films “The Flag Lieutenant,” which is to be shown-on Wednesday and Thurs- •<| y night, will be something of a surprise. For this picture is a British production, and proves beyond all doubt what a high standard British productions have reached 'of recent years. And another thing about “The Flag Lieutenant” is the fact that, each and every one. in tlie cast — from tlie star- to the smallest “walkon” part—is. a British subject; t’tie action o' tne pie.ee has neen takvn c-n British territory, ashore and afloat; it has b'-en financed by British capita!, directed by Britisher, and the

story is fiom the pen of a Britisher as well. British warships participate in the main story ; indeed, they were lent by special permission of the British Admiralty' which, by the way, gave its hearty ro-operation and assistance in producing the picture.
