ENTERTAINMENTS.

EVERYBODY’S THEATRE. NORMAN KERRY—“THE LOVE THIEF.’’ There is a wonderfully attractive Story to be told by the screen at Everybody’s theatre to-night. A popular writer lias stated that "most of us are more or less mercenary, especially with regard to affairs of the heart,” and the number of amusing and fascinating ways in which love, the fine art, can be twisted into a rather delightful business, form the basis of this comedydrama. It is a light, frothy story of political intrigue and court loves—always an interesting subject, and is treated with deft airiness and graceful comedy. Norman Kerry, the leading romantic actor of the screen, plays the. title role, a gay Lothario who finds the tables turned against him in humorous and unmistakable fashion. Greta Nissen heads the supporting cast, and acts with her customary easy grace and charm of manner. Marc McDermott and Cissy Fitzgerald also appear. “The Love Thief” is class A in romantic entertainment, and is supported by a most excellently varied list of short films and the fourth short story of the Go-Get-ters. A new programme of orchestral selections will introduce as an entr’acte the new medolious waltz ballad “June Brought the Roses.”
