Wide World Pictures.
To-night's change of programme at the Forestei's Hall will demonstrate once more that tne Wide World Pic tuves are as good as the best that any management can produce in the Australasian colonies. "Caesar Borgia." which takes rank as one of the leading dramatic creations of the age, will be prominently featured. The serening of this subject requires the unreeling of do loss than 3500 feet of film.
A comedy of exceptional humour is on tho programme titled "Waiting for Mothei".
One of Pathe's exclusive coloured scenics will be shown in "A Dayak Village," A. charm of variety belongs particularly to this collection of views. Firstly there is a panoramic view of the villages built on piles and shaded by trees and palms. Dayak life is then amply illustrated by picture? of women fishers on their homeward way, of an old lady in full holiday dress, of women making rush mats, of boys bathing and fetching water in primitive vessels of cut bamboo, and boys racing in canoes propelled by hands. A religious oerpmony, at which offerings are made to Nature, and a war dance, slow and graphic, complete the series. All the other films are up to the Wide World Picture's standard which means that they are perfection, and it is easy enough to predict that the public have a huge treat in store.
