AMUSEMENTS.

ARMIES OF EUROPE AT WAR. Judging by the crowded and overflowing houses that everywhere the above’ entertainment has been given, it is quite evident that the management know what the public are looking for. Anything dealing with the great war is of particular interest to everyone, and the programme for exhibition at the Town Hall on Friday is drawn up with that idea in view. It comprises the only cinema picture of actual battles and is one of the most comprehensive series of pictures ever shown. It gives every detail, from the men in practice and the new short military rifle, to the battlefields of France and Belgium, and through a deadly three-days battle in which three photographers were killed trying to secure this valuable record. . As photographers are not even allowed on the battlefields this is perhaps the last and only battle picture we will have the opportunity of seeing. The actual photographer who risked his life time and again to secure those pictures has been engaged to lecture at each entertainment, vividly describing each scene. The wonderful work of the Red Cross, the lino scenes of our Navy, and the working of the big guns, all help to make the programme not only a cinema entertainment. lint an entertainment without rival embodying the finest and most appropriate music for the picture, and military songs by leading singers.
