NATIONAL
“JOURNEY'S END” “Journey’s End" continues to thrill audiences at the National Theatre. Nothing but praise can be given the actors, Colin Clive, as Captain Stanhope, Handles a difficult part with honours. He ably depicts the gradual breaking of a noble officer and gallant gentleman under the strain of continuous service and heavy responsibilities. David Manners plays the part of Raleigh, the young lieutenant, fresh from college. The pitiful Hibbert, the jolly Trotter, and the Cockney Mason, are faithfully portrayed. Osborne the kindly, thoughtful, ex-schoolmaster, is splendidly drawn by lan Maclaren. A delightful children’s matinee is being presented at the National Theatre every afternoon during the school holidays. It is called “Tom Thoumb,” and is given by 40 tiny tots under the direction of Miss Lilian O’Leary. These children sing some of the latest London songs, give ballets and “tap” dances, as well as numerous pantomime and vaudeville novelties.
