ENTERTAINMENTS.

MADGE EVANS IN "NEIGHBOURS." little Madge Evans is the star in tile World picture entitled "Neighbours," and she ha« a port admirably suited to her. It is doubtful if this fascinating child has any rival on the screen and in this drama which is showing at Everybody's to-night and to-morow, she acts to (perfection. The story has a definite love interest -which centres round Madge's grow-up sister, Madge being a small school girl. The part of the sister's love is played by John Hines whose parents are wealthy and correspondingly snobbish and this companion's brother is in love with her sister. But the parents object to the match. To complicate matters Madge has been accused of theft. However the story ends happily thanks partly to Madge's clever ruse to clear her character 'and secondly to her bravery in rescuing her companion from drowning. The drama is altogether well-told and holds the interest to the end. It is sure to win hosts of fresh admirers for the dainty little star. j THE EMPIRE. "BABARY SHEEP" AND "TRIPLE TROUBLE" TO-NIGHT. To-night, to-morrow night and at the' matinee to-morrow afternoon at,the Empire Theatre there will be screened what lis no doubt the greatest double attraction programme ever offered to local picture goers, or in fact, to picture goers in any part of the Dominion.
