AMUSEMENTS.

OUR PICTURES-—TOWN' HALL.

Two great comedians in two splendid comedies form the attractions at the Town Hall to—night. These are John Barrymore in “On the Quiet.” and Fatty Arbuckle in “Camping Out.” John Barrymore is a comedian Whose previous successes on the Screen have made him famous. Now he comes back to Paramount funnier than before. “On the Quiet” is particularly suitable to Barrymore ’s quaint humour and laughter is prevalent throughout the whole five acts. Fattie Al-buckle, of course, needs no introduction-he is always popular,-and will be so in “Camping out,” which is a rattling good comedy.

THE KING-‘S.

“A MAN AND HIS MONEY."

} Tom Moore, the Goldwyn favourite, will be seen in “A Man and His IMOIIeZV if at the King’s to-night. On the theme of a £OOI and his money are soon parted, a rattling good comedy is provided with a leading role that was made for Tom Moore. In this case he is the Wise man who sees that he is 'a. fool, so he cuts himself off from ihis money and gets a. job. A girl‘the one and only—and a hated rival, figure largely in his speculations at this time and he adopts the peculiar course of taking a job as -dog-minder to the girl’_s. aunt's puppies, thereby assuring himself of being near the object .of his devotion. It proves a. lucky chance in the end-—the hated rival departs with a broken nose and other minor injuries, while Tom and the girl go to the dogs and home. LIMERICK COMPETITION. The result of this week’s Limerick will ‘be announced to-night and next Week’s limerick will be shown. The winning competitor must be present to 1-eceivethe prize.
