Comic opera of the jolllest variety awaits the screen-goor at the Cen- tral Theatre where "The Love Parade" will be shown for the last. time to-morrow, the 19th inst.
Certainly, the audible screen' has disclosed no more pleasing enter- tainer than.Chevalier. In none of. the earlier talking pictures dramatic, comic or musical-have there-been lines that crackled yufte as crisply with the bon mots of so- phistication. Nowhere else may one encounter the effective direc torial touches and elegant photo graphy that have gone into "The Love Parade."

A little more than n year ago she was cast opposite the classic fentured Buddy in "Abie's Irish Rose." She proved to be the proper foil for the handsome youth just out of college. Next they played in "Close Harmony" together. As the result of this first all-talking picture for both of them, there were thousands of favourable criticisms and thousands of new Carroll and Rogers fans. This led to Nancy's being cast opposite Hal Skelly in "The Dance of Life" one of the biggest pictures of the year.
