this week, is (bright fun, delightfully enter­ taining. Fuller is at his best in this riotous farce of a street bookie who dressed himself in stoleu clerical garb to escape tho police. Bill, the bookie, had killed a policeman, or so lie imagined, and feared the consequences. Tho audience is con­ vulsed as it follows the astonishing adventures of tho wholo company in this “ clerical” mix-up. Georgie Harris is at his best in tin’s hectic game of hide and seek. Betty Astell, Cissy Fitzgerald. Glcnnis Lorimer and Mickey Brantford have all claims to special mention. “Strictly Illegal” is a real “ night out.” in support is “ Urgent Call,” a dramatic story of crooks and an “ old timer ” who wants lo go straight.

Ono of the most exciting aud dangerous


/way, .the Palladium has its own especial illuminations for the next few days—a deep sea thriller is to bo presented on Monday until Wednesday. This is “ Tho Best Man Wins,” a spectacular, rollicking film, star­ ring Edmund l.owe and Jack Holt, supported by Bela Lugosi and Florence Bice, i t tells tho exciting tale of two deep-sea divers, operating on opposite sides of tho law, one a diver lor an ingenious smuggling scheme, the other a member of the Harbour police. Bunning through the film is a romantic rivalry between the two for the affections of Miss Bice. Quite apart from thrills, drama and comedy, there is demonstrated iu complete detail iho workings of the underwater acetylene torch. Many of tho scenes in this extraordinary picture were taken from a diving bell, through glass plates, on tho ocean floor, and are credited by critics with being the most authentic, thrilling underwater shots ever made. The climax is astounding. Shirley Temple will be screened in a comedy, “ Managing Money,” and “ Aircraft Mystery ” is the further serial instalment.


As u special holiday attraction—by the


signal success in “ Danny Boy,” will be scon uu Thursday, for tlie week out, in his second picture, “ Barnacle Bill.” This is jhe tale of a simple-minded sailor with tne proverbial range of sweethearts, who becomes a changed man on taking a wife and finding himself—through tho wife's premature death in a motor accident-given tho responsibility of bringing up his daughter. The treat­ ment of tho film well suggests the spacing out of the years, and there aro many human emotional moments as well as rollicking comedy. The picture is plentifully supplied with 'ballads, both comic and sentimental, tho tang of tho sea pervading throughout. The story docs not matter overmuch, for the production relies mainly for its appeal on the humanity of the characters. Archio Pitt dominates tho action as Bill Harris, alternating sly Cockney comedy with broad pathos. Gus McXaughtou as his former bosom pal gives capital support and sings “ Barnacle Bill,” which gives tho film its title.


Archie Pitt, who appeared with such


Sybil Jason, and Tully Comber, have im­ portant roles. Frank Tittcrton and Denis O'Neil, tho Irish tenor, arc amongst the very eapablo vocalists. ** Barnacle Bill ” is a picture to pleaso any audience. And this maybe said of a further feature, Walt.

house. Joy! Eureka! Nor does he forget liis friends. But in the midst of tho party comes a second and much bigger bombshell. Jack is informed Hint an uncle has left him a whole packing case of nest-eggs—six million yolks—pounds, rather. Phew! But thcro was a. snag; there would be! Uncle and grandpa had disliked each other so intensely that unclo stipulated that Jack should get rid of tho half-million within u:x months, otherwise the six millions would be forfeit. He must take none into Ins confidence, must not give indiscriminately, and must keep free of matrimonial entangle­ ments for tho duration. In fine, ho must present himself penniless to a certain lawyer on the expiry of tho term. But Jack’s luck was in, without a doubt, lor however ho tried to lose—in speculation, business ami so forth—ho found the money making more. How lie did finally qualify for the bigger amount provides ihe motif for this laughable and very entertaining story which comes to the Bialto next week —“ Brewster’s Millions” — with Jack Buchanan as tho prospective millionaire, Lili Daniita, Xnncv O’Xeil, Sydney Fair- brother, and a brilliant supporting cast.

MacDonald, remembered for singing in many other “ hits,” had her premier in tho town on Wednesday evening. She is oven more delightful in this gorgeous pro­ duction, with Maurice Chevalier as Count Danilo, dashing and debonair, and singing iu liis own invoighling manner. The lilting Viennese romance deals with Danilo, captain of the guard, and Sonia, a charming banker’s widow, in the mystical Kingdom of Marshovia. She goes to Paris, and. the Regent, fearing that sho will tako her money out of tho country, semis the cap­ tain, whose exploits among the fair sex have been tho talk of the palace, to woo her and bring her back. There aro gay nights at Maxim's, a great Embassy ball and the haunting charm of “ The Merry Widow Waltz,” during which, in tlie belief that the widow is a girl named File, the captain woos and wins her. When Sonia discover^ tho mission, she loses faith in him. They part, lie is arrested, and then a whimsical denouement, rich in comedy, solves their problem and ail is well.

A double feature programme for the


story of a musical comedy star who for love gave up her stage career at the height of her fame and retired to the country with her InUband. On the filth anniversary of her wedding a theatre director endeavoured to induce her to return to tho stage. This visit to London so enraged her husband that he went off iu high dudgeon, and Antonia lmd to celebrate alone. What happened there and tho temptatiou that betel her is the basis of bright, nmusiug entertainment. Specially interesting is “ Wings over Everest,” the official film ol ilio expedition sponsored by Lady Houston. Where man has failed so repeatedly to reach the summit of tho world's highest mountain, tho aeroplane, manned by British pilots, succeeded in photographing the summit, though not without ditliculiies and risks which kept tho aerial expedition racked between hopes and fears. Taken at ail altitude of more than five miles, tlie pictures secured by tho dauntless pilots are as amazing as they aro unique, being clear and sharp. The conquest of Everest by air is a thriller for everybody.

Romberg, creators of “ Desert .Song” aud ‘“New Moon,” have produced a glamorous love story of Vienna, ** The Night is Young,” which heads Thursday and the week-end's bill. Tho lovely English star, Evelyn Lave and Ramon Novarra are to­ gether for the first time on the screen Beauty and a gorgeous voice are hers, in addition to acting ability and a personality of rare charm. Xovarro, hack to uniforms, sings better than ever in Ills career. Spectacular scenes in tho great Prater or amusement park, the Imperial Opera, 1he Emperor’s palace, and in quaint Viennese cafes and pleasure spots figure in tlio elabor­ ate settings of this story of a philandering Archduke who. to allay family misgivings of affairs of high circles, pretends a lovo for Lisl, a ballet dancer of the Royal Opera House. Unwittingly he comes at length to realise that ho entertains a real affection for tlio girl, hut his approach to the Emperor to sanction a wedding is ruthlessly turned down on the ground that country comes first, love second. Xovarro, reminiscent of “ The Prisoner of Zenda ” and ” The Student Prince,” and Miss Lave, are adinir ably supported in this musical romance, in which Charles Buttcrworth, Herman Bing and Una Merkcll provide abundant comedy,

on armaments was another point mentioned by the Member. Quite contrary to tho suggestions made by their opponents that tho Government was a war party instead of being a peace party, it was vital for tho welfare of the country, and also for tho efficient membership of the League of Nations, that we should ho in a position to defend ourselves. Our voice in the League of Nations councils would be far more effective if our forces wore known to hi* modern. The extra money which was being expended oil the navy was simply for modernising purposes, and it was essen­ tial that a country such as England should have an efficient navy, army and air force.

Abyssininn dispute, Sir AA'tlliam said he felt that the Government had done every­ thing it possibly could to preserve peace. “ That, I think, is admitted hv the leaders of all parties in the country,” he said. “ Sir Samuel lionro has undoubtedly the hacking of the whole country in what ho has endeavoured to do *nt Geneva. Per­ sonally J think ibis country should only act if the nations act collectively. AVc cannot afford, and neither should we be or con­ sider ourselves to he, the policemen Europe. People should realise that the League of Xatious is not a super-state, but that it can merely reflect- the opinions of tiie nations which form its metnibership. It is to lie honed that Italy will not break away from tho League. Tho strong attitude taken up by the League will. 1 hope, have tlie effect of showing other nations that an aggressor nation is not looked upon with any favour in the Council of the League, and. I think, its attitude might have the effect in the long run of bringing into the Longue iho*e strong and powerful nations such as the United States, Germany and Japan, who are unfortunately at present outside its orbit. Tf tho League conlil include all tho nations of the world and they would agree to collective security, a great stop would have been taken towards the peace of the future.”
