ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S. “LOVE IN A HURRY.” Something unusual is provided in the World feature, “Love in a Hurry,” in which Carlyle Blackwell and Evelyn Greeley are featured, in that, the scenes are laid amidst rural beauty in old England. The hero is first depicted in a prologue. as a gallant knight rescuing his lady fair in the days of King Arthur, and as the story progresses it is seen that history repeats itself, and his actions in the present day are parallel with those of early times. Evelyn Greeley presents a charming impersonation of an English titled beauty, and George McQuarrie puts up a good showing in the character role of a pompous chief constable of a country village. The final screening takes place to-night at Everybody’s.

THE PEOPLE’S. BERT Ld'TELL AND ELMO LINCOLN TO-NIGHT. What promises to be one of the real motion picture events of the year—and from film gossip concerning the production, the promise bids fair to be satisfactorily realised —will come to the People’s Theatre to-night in a picturisation Sf Sir Gilbert Parker's greatest novel, “The Right of Way,” starring the magnetic and versatile? young actor, Bert Lytell. This is a story of modern Canadian life, the narrative of the great romance' of Charley, or “Beauty” Steele, the brilliant lawyer, irresistible in his personal charm, dissolute and unprincipled, uncannily skilful in his profession —at once the pride and despair of Montreal. How his masterful personality, his craving for drink, his somehow attractive superciliousness, brought him into the lives of two women, -different entirely save that both were beautiful, constitutes one of the really big love stories of modern times. The bill includes latest gazettes and Elmo Lincoln in his serial masterpiece, “Elmo, the Fearless.”
