ENTERTAINMENTS.

DOUBLE' FEATURE PROGRAMME AT TOWN HALL.

“Heads Up,” featuring “Lefty’ 1 Flynn, and “Beating the Book,” starring the famous jockey, Steve Donoghuc, are the two big attractions on the programme at the Town Hall to-morrow (Friday) evening. “Heads Up” is a delight-' ful adventurous comedy drama of life in a South American Republic. The story deals with the difficulties into which a wealthy young man in search of excitement is plunged, when he answers an advertisement calling for a man to go on a secret mission. Lefty Flynn as the wealthy young man in search of a thrill, who lets the flip of a coin guide most of his actions in life is a big success. “Beating the Book” is the story of a famous jockey (Steve Donoghue), and a scion of nobility (Curly Blackwell) who turn the cards on a couple of turf crooks —a bookmaker and a money lender. This big programme will be offered at usual prices 9d and l/fl. Children; half price.. .., , . Kept' prisoners' offi a. mni runner headed for the South Seas—the reformed crook who has gone wrong again, the girl who still sticks to him, and the detective, in love with the girl, but bound to, get the crook —such is the situation in which the three leading characters in “Blacki Paradise,” next Saturday’s feature, find themselves. Madge Bellamy, Edmund Lowe and Leslie Fenton, are the leading players.
