MAJESTIC

LAST DAYS OF “LOVERS?” Only two more nights remain for Majestic patrons to see the excellent programme now being shown at this theatre. If they miss this programme they will be missing one of the brightest programmes of the season. The supporting pictures comprise the Majestic News, Eve’s Review (which contains a very beautiful English scenic of Wales), a New Zealand Government scenic, “Samoa,” and for the special benefit of the kiddies, a hilarious juvenile comedy, “Funny Face,” with Big Boy. A splendid musical programme is presented by the Majestic’s new orchestra Linder the direction of Mr. John Whiteford-Waugli. Friedmann’s “Slavish Rhapsody” i* specially featured. Popular Miss Etta Field contributes two vocal numbers, “Homing” (del Riego) and “St. Nicholas Day in the Morning” (Easthope Martin). Ramon Novarro’s fencing training which he received in “Scaramouche” stood him in good stead when in his new starring vehicle for Metro-Gold-wyn-Mayer, “Lovers?” now being shown at the Majestic Theatre, he had to light a spectacular sword duel with John Miljan. . This new picture has Alice Terry m the leading feminine role, and. is a modern romance of Spain based on the power of scandal in undermining the happines of three innocent people. John M. Stahl directed “Lovers’, which is a screen adaptation of the stage success, “The World and His Wife.”
