BUCK JONES AT TOWN HALL. Amid scenes of rare beauty among the fantastic formations of the canyons of the Mojave, Fox Films feature “Desert Valley,” starring Buek Jones, screens at the Town Hall to-night. Comedy, thrills and suspense abound in this fine picture whose story deals with the feud of cattlemen over water rights. Buck' plays the part of an irrepressible cowboy, who has a knack for getting into trouble over other people’s troubles. Virginia Brown Faire is the girl in the case and Malcolm Waite the ruthless owner of the water rights. Hard riding, spectacular fighting and comedy of a rare order make this one of the best westerns seen locally in some time. This is a clean wholesome picture which the entire family will enjoy. Also “Wedding Bells” (comedy), News and Scenic. Usual prices. ■ ’ Seldom indeed, if ever, have we been favoured with a motion picture of the calibre of “Zeebrugge,” which will be shown at the. Town Hall on Monday only. In the first plaice Zeebrugge is not the product of some imaginative writer —but the official historical reproduction of one of the most astonishing and daring episodes of British Naval History. The raid oh the German submarine base of Zeebrugge on St. George’s Day, 1,018. The “London Daily Express” has summed up “Zeebrugge” as the greatest treasure which cinematography has yet contributed to our national history. Don’t miss this on Monday at usual prices.
