ENTERTAINMENTS

POPULAR PICTURE!. To-night the two comedy-dramas to be screened at the Oddfellows' Hall makes one of the best programmes that has so far been screened there. In the first half Peggy Hyland plays leading role in "The Girl with no Regrets," while Tom Mix is out to thrill his audience in "Fighting for Gold," a storv based on tf>e book. "The High Grader," by William Mnilcod Raine. Tom Mix does many dareI devil stunts, some good hard Western fighting, and a pretty love storyruns through the picture. The best Tom Mix picture yet shown at the Oddfellows' Hall. Next Friday the last Paramount special for a time, but the best yet, a big Cecil B. De Mille production, adapted from the well-known story, "Montezuma s Daughter," which in turn was based on actual historical facts. Geraldine Farrar, the popular celebrity of the screen, is the star who plays the part of "The Woman God Forgot." This is a six-reel Artcraft Superfeature, antl one of Paramount's best released. Don't fail to see it next Friday. Billy West in a two-reel comedy, 'Her Tenderfeet," and other supports complete this special programme. Prices as for specials.

LYCEUM PICTURES.

PREMIER HALL-TO-NIGHT (TUESDAY).

The Goklwyn Company never did anything better—certainly nothing funnier —than when they starred Mabel Normand in the ragtime romance, "Upstairs," in which is introduced a screamingly funny scene in a cabaret hotel kitchen, a mirth-provoking development of the romance as it is played out in the jazz ballroom upstairs, some adventures with 100 per cent, thrill, and to round it off a millionaire disguised as a bell-boy claiming a scullerymaid, who is Mabel herself, of course, as his blushing bride. This is the star picture for this evening. There will be no pictures tomorrow evening.

FOOTBALLERS' BALL.

TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 21. The 1920 Pukekohe footballers' annual plain and fancy dress masquerade ball which will take place in the Premier Hall on Tuesday, September 21, promises to exceed all previous efforts by the footballers. An energetic- committee has been set up, and it is leaving no stone unturned to make the function the success of the season. A large number have signified their intention of coming out in fancy dresses, and it is safe to predict "that such a widge range of dresses will never be seen in Pukekohe for some time. The footballers themselves art leading the way, and any footballer not in some style of fancy costume will be fined. Tickets are selling freely, and a large attendance is requested. Those who have not yet got a ticket are advised to purchase one right now. Handsome trophies have been presented for the various fancy dress classes, and competition promises to be very keen indeed. Make a special effoU to attend the greatest event of the year.
