KING’S THEATRE. Without doubt one of the best allround programmes submitted here for some time was that shown last night to a full house. The star picture, “Kronstadt,” was really a splendid production and well earned the applause it received. “A Storm at Sea" was a fin e picture, the effects being very good. The War Budget was “out on its own,”-and was an unusually longone. “The Ladies’ Wiar” should be seen, as it is really too funny to explain. Ladies should see it as theF may get some good ideas in dress. At good Keystone comedy is also shown* This all-star programme will be shownt to-nigbt and to-morrow night. THREE STARS, TO-NIGHT.
