ENTERTAINMENTS.

' I EVERYBODY'S. "THE GffiL IN HIS HOUSE" TO-NIGHT. \ very pleasant love theme runs through the Vitagraph drama, "The Cirl in His House," in which beautiful Grace Uavinond is the heroine and handsome Earle Williams the hero- It would be difficult to get a more striking pair of screen-lovers than these two. The story tells of a young man of wealth wlib left home and spent a number of years in foreign countries and when he returned was surprised to find his house mysteriously occupied by a charming young girl. The solving of this unexpected state of affairs not only afford some- very exciting situations but also ends in the investigator falling in love with the girl. It would perhaps spoil the plot to say how the young lady came to occupy the house, but a marriage of the, two "lfiiinants for it makes a decidedly satisfactory finish. The settings are nicely arranged and the interest in the story is well maintained throughout. This drama will be certain to add to the reputation of the two stars and will win hosts of fresh admirers for Grace Darmond specially. The third episode of "The House of Hate" also shows with this programme. | THE PEOPLE'S. BTLLIE BURKE "Let's Get a Divorce," Billie Burke's latest Paramount picture, is a charming picture producing a gale of laughter and at the same time teaching a good lesson. Tired and disgusted, Cyprienne, the romantic, fresh-from-the-convent girl, asked him to release her from her marital obligations. Her husband's cousin promised the love her ardent young heart needed; and that, night, in the old garden house, while the husband slaved at his books, Cyprienne and her lover planned her divorce. "Henri alwavs gives me everything I want, so he'll surelv give me divorce!" Henri agreed. He set the day. He invited his cousin to come and live !n the house, so that Cyprienne and he could learn to love unhampered—pending divorce proceedings. And automatically the lover became the husband-in-waiting, and the husband became the romantic lover! Then Cyprienne woke up! The latest Brav Pictograph and comedy are also <• th* bill.
