THE MAORILAND THEATRE.
“PROXIES” ON WEDNESDAY
The picture programme at the local j theatre on Wednesday night is headed I by,a Paramount thrill-romance that i snaps like the crack of a whip. En- ! titled “Proxies,” it is a romantic bun- ! die oi melodramatic thrills, all tied up ’in a charming love-knot. With Zena
i Keefe and Norman Kerry in the leadi ing roles, it promises to make a not- ! able attraction. “THE SHEIK” ON FRIDAY. : ROMANCE OF BARBARIC SPLENDOUR.
On Friday one of the most remarkable pictures ever shown in New Zealand will come to Shannon in “The Sheik.” It features Agnes Ayres and Rudolph Valentino in a story of stolen love that has sent a new thrill through the English-speaking world. It is the tale of a lawless Arab chief who loved an English beauty, stormed (her caravan, carried her off to his tent, ; lost her, fought for her; mastered her, : and won her heart and soul. The ro- | mance is all coloured with barbaric
I splendour, swift and free as a galloping Bedouin racing through scenes ; that thrill with their beauty and daring. A drama of burning sands that ; rings true, yet presents a background like that of the Arabian Nights.
