TIVOLI AND EVERYBODY’S
NEW PICTURES TOMORROW I “The House of Horror,” the fascin- j ating mystery picture which has been j thrilling the audiences at the Tivoli [ and Everybody’s Theatres during the [ past few days, will be screened for the j last time this evening. Louise Fazenda, ■ Chester Conklin and Thelma Todd are i the stars. ‘‘Wolves of the City,” the ■ underworld story starring Sally Blane " and Bill Cody, will also be screened [ for the last time. . • The plight of a wealthy young man i who changes places with a friend in ■ order to be near the girl that he loves " and then finds that she thinks he is j insane is just one of the trials and : tribulations that Reginald Denny has ! to undergo in his latest Universal star- : ring picture, “Clear the Decks,” which j will be the new attraction at both j theatres tomorrow. : The plot of the story revolves around ! the adventures of this young . man [ aboard a trans-Pacific liner in com- : pany with a male nurse and two jewel ; thieves. Denny gives one of the * most hilarious performances of his j scintillating career. : Olive Hasbrouck, Lucien Littlefield, ■ Colette Merton, Otis Harlan, Brooks s Benedict and Elinor Leslie have pro- ! minent roles. r The second big picture. “Once and : For All,” is a romantic tale of France j before and during the war, starring [ Patsy Ruth Miller and John Harron. A second big attraction tomorrow will j be the U.F.A. picture, “Thou Shalt Not ; Steal,” starring the clever little Eng- [ lish actress Lillian Harvey. The story j is an unusual one of a good woman [ turned thief while a thief reforms. I GRAND AND LYRIC “STOLEN PLEASURES” Only two more days remain for j Aucklanders to see the current double j feature programme at the Grand and Lyric Theatre. The first picture is j “Stolen Pleasures,” a comedy-drama i of matrimonial jealousies starring j Dorothy Revier and Helen Chadwick. Tht story tells of two young married couples in both of which there is a “tiff.” While they are still smarting with jealousy they find themselves in most unusual and dramatic circumstances. Thanks to the ingenuity of the author, and the necessity of the i drama, the whole thing untangles it- ■ self in a grand climax and we leave them a little groggy for their adventures and lessons but surely on the : way to living happily ever afterward. Not that this splendidly written and , produced screen drama is intended for the sole diversion and instruction of married folks —not by a long shot. It is solid and sound entertainment for every class of theatregoer. DIXIELAND CABARET Dancing wil be enjoyed at the popu- j lar Dixieland Cabaret again this even- i ing, which is always comfortably warm j of winter evenings. The musical side I will again be well catered for by the j Dixieland Dance Band. One of the finest performances in j the Paramount all-talking picture, “A | Dangerous Woman,” is played by Clyde j Cook, a talented Australian actor. ! Other players in the picture ~” ; ve I Brook, Baclanova, and Neil Hamilton, j,
