LYCEUM PICTURES. TO-NIGHT. 'RETURN OF TARZAN."

All those who witnessed the screening of the jungle romance, '"Tar/.an of the Apes," will find renewed interest and entertainment in the continuation of the story at the Premier Hall to-night, under the title of "The Romance of Tarzan." A portion of the first reel is used to review "Tarzan of the Apes,', and shows the most striking incidents in the earlier story, so that the second pail will follow on smoothly. The new story commences at the cabin in the forest where "Tar/.an of the Apes'' ended. From this point on, "The Ro- ■ mance of Tarzan" carries the interest of the audience through many thrilling scenes. The primitive man leaves the jungle to seek his mate in the abode of luxury. Tarzat\ appears in the gay lights of America's night life a giant jungleman amid the conventions of civilisation. He follows ins beautiful girl through many sensational scenes, and rescues her

from petal in the low haunts of the city. But a strange barrier stands between them, and he no longer occupies the highest place in her affections. Broken-hearted, he returns

to the jungle, and wanders disconsolately through the woods until his mate comes to him, and there in the vast African wild woods they plight their troth anew.

WEDNESDAY.

Popular Tom Moore, always a public favourite, is down for n new Goldwyn drama entitled "Mand and His Money," at the Premier Hall to-mor-row evening. In this laughable play Tom shows in graphic style an easy way to go to the dogs. A good love romance runs through the story. The Supports are a two-r,eel comedy and a gazette.

During the interval the chairman of the school committee will speak for a few minutes on the advantages and possiI bilities of the school to our district.

POPULAR PICTURES. "M'LISS." TUESDAY, AUGUST 3. "M'Liss,'' the pictured adaptation of a famous story by Bret Harte, is an Artcraft Paramount special attraction of magnificent scenery, power, and delightful human interest. Mary Pickford has in this Western motion drama a role that suits her versatile genius to perfection. As a little mountain tomboy she flits through the scenes with appealing naturalness, with all the perversity, sudden temper, and delicious melting moods of such agirl. There are stirring events in the story, and the finale is sudden and unexpected. But a vein of tender romance runs Ihrough the girl's life, and charms the beholder." So reads the advance description of "M'Liss," and it's here for patrons' benefit. Popular Pictures has made special arrangements to screen it in the Oddfellows' Hall on Tuesday, August 3, and hopes to follow it up with specials eaually as good at the very reasonable price for such pictures of Is 7d for adults, and 9d for children. SKATING. Friday afternoon and evening as usual.
