One badly wrenched shoulder and a cracked rib were the price that Wheeler Oakrnan paid for the realism lie put into a fall from a swiftly moving train in a scene in Oliver Aiorosco’s “Slippy McGee,” the First National Attraction that will lie screened at’ the Royal Theatre to-night. Oakmas has persistently refused to allow a “double” to do the hazardous bits of business that come to his roles. He insists upon making the falls himself and he was picket! up unconscious at the bottom of a 20ft. embankment. See this picture to-night, it’s good. On Alonday night “Alary of the Alovies” will be sereeseh, a story dealing with life behind the scenes at Hollywood. What do all these artists do? What are they up against? This picture reveals in all its glory the real, pulsing live heart of Hollywood. On Wednesday next “Should a Doctor Tell?” will be screened. All under the age of 16 not admitted. “BLUE BLAZES.”

Action and thrills mixed with a ili. finite thread, of romance and a likeable personality constitute the elements of “Blue Blazes,” starring Lester ('unco at the Town Hall toniglil. “Blue Blazes” is ihe story of a world-famous prize-fighter, who became tired of adulations and business bickerings. Forfeiting a I heal rival contract that would bring him £5,000, lie disappears in search of romance. He finds what lie is looking for in the Great South West where pretty Mary Warren is in dire need of a stalwart protector. A thrilling hand-to-hand duel to death in a blazing oil well is a tense situation in the picture. “School Pals” a Sunshine comedy and the latest fox News are on the programme, l sual prices. Fire, danger, speeding- engines and an intensely interesting story is found in the Alas ter picture “The Ninety and Nine,” which will be shown at the Town Hall on Monday. The big east is headed by Colleen Aloore, Warren Baxter and Gertrude Astor. Other pictures on Monday are Dutch Cheese-making, Slow Alotion Golf b.v Gene Sarazen and the latest English and Bathe Gazettes. Usual prices will prevail.
