ENTERTAINMENTS.
AURORA THEATRE PICTURES. TO-NIGHT. WINNING OF BARBARA WORTH. The dramatic romance which 'features Ronald. Colman and Vilma. Banky is a glowing tale of tliose piqneers who battled with the menace of water, first in its total absence and then in its overflowing presence. It is at once the story of vast lands reclaimed and the reclamation of a man’s soul. It presents the most unique eternal triangle of any of the more important films, with Willard Holmes, eastern engineer, coming to love Barbara just as Abe Lee, desertbred westerner, does; and poor Barbara does not know her own mind, loving both. TUESDAY NIGHT. THE UNKNOWN. In “The Unknown” Lon Chaney is absolutely astonishing as “the Armless Wonder” of the circus troupe, which forms the basis of the story, and his remakable love for .the proprietor’s daughter is the pulse, qf the great drama that carries the story forward to a mighty climax. Joan Crawford, plays charmingly the feminine lead, and Norman Kerry is also featured to advantage.
