ENTERTAINMENTS.

‘THE HEART OF THE NORTH.”

Under this heading Roy Stewart and Louisa Lovely appear in a powerfully thrilling- tale of the Northwest, the land of men and big things. The most exciting incident in the plot is the raging forest fire which destroys both man and beast in its relentless fury. The picture is crammed with exciting action, romance and suspense. In every situation will be found a real thrill. Patrons will be mystified until the very end. All who like quick action pictures will be extremely pleased. The prices of admission are as usual. Town Hall this evening. “MY BOY.” “My Boy” is the chief picture at the Royal to-night. It stars Jackie Coogan, “The Kid.” “The Kid” is indescribable! To see him is to love him, that’s all. He has a hundred new smiles for you, a hundred loveable pranks, and—let’s whisper this—a natural way of living his role as the immigrant kid who adopts a surly old sea captain that reaches clear down your throat and drags up a sob at times. The “kid” isn't just cute —he’s a genius. The story of “My Boy” was written especially for Jackie, and in it he is able to exercise to the full bis rare pantomimic genius. It is a picture that will draw laughter and tears and make you want to see it more than once. Also comedy: “Snooky’s Fresh Heir.” Extra: “Robinson Crusoe.” On Monday night “The Four Just Men” will be screened.” It is a picture packed with highly dramatic incidents interspersed with diverting comedy. Lovers of good, clean comedy should certainly see “The Four Just Men.” DANCE. A dance will be held in the Masonic Hall on Monday evening next under the auspices of the Senior Co.-Operative League. First-class music, floor and supper. Price of admission: Gents 2/-, ladies 1/-.
