It was stated in 1924 that he was almost penniless, but some months later, he was guaranteed £300 a month by the Nizam of Hyderabad. His daughter was kept abreast of the modern woman movement and speaks several languages.

"HOLD EVERYTHING."
Featuring Winnie Lightner and Joe E. Brown, Hollywood's new team of fun makers, "Hold Every thing," which was shown for the frat time at the Queen's Theatre yesterday, is a sure dispeller of the "blues." There is fun in almost every foot of the film; love scenes between Georges Carpenter and Sally O'Nell, in which Georgós does not shine as a love makor, but einge three duets with Sally very effectively: a thrilling boxing bout between Georges and Tony Stabenau "for the world's cham- pionship": a farcical set to be tween Joe and another tough; a Jazz band which knows how to syncopate; and last, but not least, dancing a la cabaret with a win- Ining beauty chorus. All these go towards the making of good enter tainment, and the technicolour throughout adds considerably to the enjoyment of the film.
Also in the programme is a car- toon called "Hold Anything," one of those funny Loony Tune fea- tures, a Pathetone news reel, and a local film showing the Fire Bri- gade going through their paces at the annual display which was hold on Wednesday.
