ENTERTAINMENTS.

FULLER’S PICTURES,

“GOOD-BYE SUMMER.”

The initial screening of the big feature, “Good-bye Summer,” was witnessed by a large and appreciative audience last night. Additional charm was lent to the picture by the singing of Tosh’s “Good-bye” by Miss Doris Signal, the item being received with loud and sustained applause. The romance starts where Valerie Blake, who inherits her father’s and mother’s artistic temperament, being left in care of a guardian, who does not understand her. She constantly feels the loss of the love and contentment which permeated her home with her parents. When her guardian is approached by Martin Sperry for his consent to his marriage with Valerie, the guardian gladly gives it, and prevails upon her to accept the offer of marriage. Her husband is a decidedly practical man, who crushes all her artistic tendencies and fine nature with his ruthless methods and cruel, cold nature. On the birth of a little son, she decides to make him a boy after her own temperament, but her husband insists upon making him a hard selfish, business mau after his own nature. Valerie seeks consolation in her art studies. Here she meets with sympathy aud appreciation from Hugh &t. Clair, an artist. The rest of the story is alive with interest and inspiration. The end while a sad one, is overwhelmingly complete and artistic. An excellent Keystone comedy provides much merriment, aud supporting items constitute a splendid programme, which will be repeated to-night. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY. The change of programme for Friday and Saturday includes two special features, “The Shoal Light,” a splendid nautical drama, aud “An Affair for the Police,” a mystifying story of jewel thefts in high society, well told and of burning interest throughout. The. Keystone Company are represented with a merry comedy, “Fatty’s Faithful Fido,” and the programme is complete with other items of interest.
