ENTERTAINMENTS.

Lyceum Pictures. Clara Kimball Young makes a popular reappearance in a select feature drama entitled "The House of Glass" at the Fremier Hall, tomorrow (Wednesday) evening. This is a popular dramatic story of gripping intensity. The settings, dressing, and production are perfect. The supporting items consist of Pathe Gazette, an interest study and a Triangle Comedy. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 3rd, (Continued from last Friday's issue) The noted star " Tom Mix " has always craved a life of adventure and excitement. When quite young, he roamed the Canadian Northwest as one of the daring Mounted Police. Later he was in the United States Army and served in the Phillipines, afterwards fighting as a soldier of fortune in Mexico under Madero. To break the monotony between these hazardous undertakings he punched cattle on his father's ranch. The result of his experience is fully realised in his screen work. He brings the breath of the prairie, the chill of the great North-west and the virility of the soldier and puts his own unique personality into it all. Not content with this he introduces the most daring feats of horsemanship, and the most hazardous of thrills to produce the required realism. The effect is entirely convincing. When William Fox studied the work of Tom Mix in his first short subjects, he realised that here was real star material. In features he has made good with the public. So many expressions of appreciation have been received that his productions,with those of George Walsh and Gladys Brockwell, were selected to be issued by the Fox Film Corporation as Victory Pictures. "Mr. Logan, U.S. A." will be shown at the Premier Hall on the above date, when Tom Mix will make his first appearance to Pukekohe audiences.
