CAPITOL AND EDENDALE
“TIL LIE’S PUNCTURED ROMANCE”
One of the best comedies everbrought to Auckland is “Time’s Punctured Romance,” which is now being shown at the Capitol and Edendale Theatres. Three well known comedyplayers in W. C. Fields, Louise Fazenda and Chester Conklin head the cast. Chester Conklin, as Horatio Q. Frishee, is the proprietor of Frishee’s Mammoth Circus. At the circus they are short-handed, and Tillie’s rather abrupt entry gains her a job. She is the thickhead of the circus, and several times thwarts the ringmaster fro mrobbing Frisbee. The war breaks out, and as some are ineligible for service, Frisbee offers his circus for entertainment. This brings them all to France, where they get mixed with each side alternatively, till armistice puts an end to it, and Frisbee learns that Tillie is his daughter. The second picture is “Surrender,” a story of the early days of the war on the Austrio-Russian frontier, and stars Mary Philbin and Ivan Mosjukine.
