ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY'S. MADGE KENNEDY IN "THROUGH THE WRONG DOOR." This afternoon and to-night at Every6ody's there will be a new programme headed by "Through the Wrong Door," a snappy Goldwyn comedy with Madge Kennedy delightful in the leading role. Light, gay, and amusing, "Through the Wrong Door" is frankly composed and produced to chase dull care away, and it is so well interpreted by Madge Kennedy and the cast in general, that the effect is a very pleasant one. In the new dignity of one who sympathises with the man her own father has deliberately tried to ruin, whom she is assisting to achieve natural justice, she plays the part so convincingly that the sudden change of mind and heart is not only excused but approved inost cordially. John Bowers, in support, is manly and effective, and the remainder of the cast is admirably -typed. A gloom-chasing comedy without a dull moment, is "Through the Wrong Door." The screening occasions are to-day's session only. THE PEOPLE'S. MACK SENNETT AND WALLY REID. To-day's big double star attraction presents another of the famous ribtickling Mack Sennett comedies, latest gazettes and travel picture, and the big virile actor, Wallace Reid, in his screen triumph "Alias Mike Moran," a graphic picturisation of F. A. Bartlctt's famous story "Open Sesame." As "Open Sesame,"- was one of the best pieces of fiction ever written, so the same story in film, "Alias Mike Moran," stands as one of the best five-reel pictures ever maile. Larry Young is a cr.ward. He wants to dodge the enlistment draft, and ho finally secures a. substitute to go into his place, Mike Moran, ev-con-vict. But he must also disappear—disappear and live the life of the other man, as an ex-convict. And then he learns that the man who went to fight under his name has died a glorious death. Larry Young is a name that is praised! How the fellow lives to be a real man makes an absorbing photoplay. The matinee to-day commences at 2 p.m.
