MAORILAND THEATRE.

“JAZZ MAD” ON WEDNESDAY. What the Cinema Review describes as a romantic drama full of appealing pathos, and simple humour and with a finely portrayed development is “Jazz Mad,” due .at- the Maoriland Theatre on Wednesday. In M 3 own country Franz Hansurran was hailed as a genius, but “Jazz Mad” America had no use for him and lie eventually became conductor of a comic orchestra at a cabaret where he was nightly pelted with vegetables, etc. His daughter Elsa accepted a cheque for £2OOO from her sweetheart’s wealthy mother (given in order to buy her off) and purposed devoting it to producing her father’s composition. The <dimax revealed his triumph without the use of money, his genius having at last been recognised.

A UNIQUE ANIMAL ACT. Baboon jugglers., baboon actors, baboon artists, baboon comedians, baboon contortionists, baboon Risley acts, baboons that do everything but talk, figure on the bill at the local theatre on Thursday evening, when Paul Pelrini presents his wonderful -animal vaudeville act. Paul Pedrini has tramped the unknown jungles of the world for the missing link between-Monkey and mankind. The Royal Zambesi Baboons are the nearest approach to human being, and were trained by Paul Pedrini in the native, jungles of the Belgian Congo. /
