ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S. BIG MATINEE TO-DAY- AT 2.30. A final reminder is given of the big matinee to-day at Everybody’s corn” mencing at 2.30, when the f.ull double star week-end bill will be presented. There will be no matinees to-morrow. The big Paramount-Artcraft production, -The Teeth of the Tiger,”, featuring the forceful and virile actor, David Powell, and an all-star cast, is the graphic picturisation of Maurice Le Blanc's immortal mystery detective story in which the teeth marks form the clue to a notorious crime by Arsene Lupin. It is a picture that is all thrill and mystery. Mae Murray displays a wardrobe in her newest picture, “The A.B.C. of Love,” guaranteed to cause feminine hearts to flutter and to make no slight impression on the masculine heart. From lacy gossamer lingerie to frilly nothing of chic little street gowns and suits, she runs the gamut of milady’s wardrobe. ‘‘The A.B.C. of Love” is a romantic drama written, directed and produced by Leonce Perret for Pathe. It tells the always interesting story of the ignorant but beautiful country girl who marries a man of position and wealth and brains. When the glamor of her innocence and naivete wears off he realises that her intellect is no mate for his, and their matrimonial ship founders on the rocks—but only for a while. THE PEOPLE’S. BIG MATINEE TO-DAY AT 3.30. A big special “kiddies” matinee carnival will be held to-day at the People’s, commencing at 3.30. The programme has been specially selected, contains no drama, and is made up of gazettes, comedies, and the big Universal serial story, “The Moonriders.” To-night’s bill presents the marvellous Dolly Sisters in their big success, “The Million Dollar Dollies.” Rhythm and poetry’ of motion are purely instinctive with the famous Dolly Sisters who present six dance divertisements in Metro’s romantic fantasy, “The Million Dollar Dollies,” concluding to-night. These charming girls dance with natural simplicity, yet with the very acme of perfection in movement. The bill includes Gazette, comedy and “King of the Circus.”

“BRAN PIE.” POSITIVELY LAST PERFORMANCE TO-MORROW. To-morrow evening should witness a scene of enthusiastic mirth and merriment, when the New Plymouth Courtiers’ Costume Comedy Company will return to the Empire Theatre, and present the positively final performance of their successful revue, “Bran Pie.” That the Courtiers are again going to repeat their record of a crowded house is evidenced at the - heavy booking of seats that Jias taken place at the local bo?c office, and it behoves intending patrons of “Bran Pie” to make early application at Collier’s, the booking office, and secure their seats, thereby avoiding disappointment at the doors. The Taranaki Daily News in reporting one of the performances in New Plymouth said: “The revue was presented with such a sparkling brightness, that it took the audience by storm, and item after item

was tumultuously applauded. The various ensembles were marked with a dash and vivacity that would have done justice to a long-experienced company of professional artists.” “Bran Pie” will be staged to-morrow evening in the same way as their last season.
