ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S. Hope Hampton, one of the loveliest women acting for the screen, has never made a happier choice of roles than that of Janis Clayton in “Love’s Penalty,” which opens at Everybody’s to-night. It gives her opportunity for every emotion from the sunniest sort of happiness to the deepest depths of hatred; and never have we seen a dramatic? role more splendidly done. With Miss Hampton as star the .production ranks as one of the most entertaining of the present year. The story is an especially dramatic one, but it is doubtful if anyone lacking the ~ histrionic ability of Miss Hampton could have made it give the supreme entertainment which it offers with this winsome girl’s personality pervading every scene. Percy Marjnont plays the leading male role.' Amongst the supports there is “The Man with the Twieted Lip,” one of the best pictures of the Sherlock Holmes series. “IDLE CLASS’-’-AND “SQUIBS” MONDAY. Commencing a three night season on Monday there will be Charlie Chaplin’s latest big comedy feature “Idle Class” and the famous English picture “Squibs.” The box plans are now open at Collier’s. THE PEOPLE’S. LAST NIGHT OF “KISSED.” Kisses, hundreds of them, and all brands are scattered by the charming little star Marie Provost in her latent comedy drama “Kissed,” which screens finally to-night at the People’s. The story depicts Connie Keeney, played by Miss Provost, who endeavors to trace a strange masked man who had kissed her. That was her only clue —a kiss. It was not, however, an ordinary kiss, but one of those slow rapturous sorts that . . . Anyway, Connie desired a few more of the same brand; hence her search for the man. So she submits (the little devil) to be kissed by man after man until one day someone whom she had previously despised as just a common, ordinary millionaire, tastes of her kieses. In “Kissed” Miss Prevost win’s every heart and makes a clever comedy drama. The supporting films include a Century comedy and Topical film. THE EMPIRE. “THE STO&M” The sensational motion ipjeture success “The Storm,’ which has attracted packed houses to Everybody’s the past two nights will be shown again .tonight for the last time nt th? Empire. Briefly the story concerns a French Canadian girl, a stalwart woodsman and his adventurous city ’friend who are snow-bound for the winter. The men fall in love with the girj. ,9he prefers the woodsmah but he hasn’t Ropbiatiration enough to realise it. The city man resorts to trickery to be left alone with Munette, the girl. A forest fire sweeps towards the shanty, driving a pack, of wolves before it and the woodsman returns to rescue the girl and his former friend who confesses his ignominy. “'l'he Storm” probably gives more universal satisfaction than any other release for the year. Seats for to-night’s final screening at the Empire can now be reserved at Collier’s. “THE. MESSIAH.’-TO-MORROW NIGHT. To-morrow night will mark an epoch in the history of music in New Plymouth, when Handel’s oratorio “The Meaeiah” will be given at the Coronation Hall by a choir of over 250 voices and an orchestra of 25 instruments, made up of members of the New Plymouth Choral Society, Male Choir. StratforJ Musical Society, and the Royal Wellington Choral Union, This will be a unique opportunity of hearing those massive choral compositions on something approaching an adequate scale, and those, who have never had such a chance before should not miss this occasion. In addition to the choir singing there will be four of the leading Dominion soloists on th,e platform to sing the principal parts. The work will be produced under the direction o Mr. H. Temple White, of Wellington. Those whp have not booked seats should do so at once as there are now only a limited number available for reserving. The box plan is at Collier’s. of reserves and 4s tickets are asked to inter the hall by the first annex on Gill 'Street. The entrance to the 2s seats will be by the main doors to the hall and also by the door at the northern end of the hall from Eliot Street, Lady members of the choir and orchestra will enter by the main ent ranee, gentleman by the Eliot Street door.
