"Ladies of the Big House." More than fifty employees of the Paramount studios in Hollywood can now see their faces on the screen for the first time in "adies of the lig House," fenturing Sylvia Sidney and Gene Raymond, a gripping ram. ance hive drama with vivid sequences of prison life, which will be the King's Theatre next Wednesday.

"A still cameraman accompanied by Director Marion Gering, set up an impromptu photograph gallery by the entrance to the studio when the picture was being made and grabbed many of the workers as they entered the studio.

"Some were insulted when they learned the pictures were to be used in the rogues gallery in the photoplay, but most of them were amused. Some, carpenters, cameramen, actors, elre- tricians and press agenta proved the right types to represent desperate crime-hartened prison convicts," sald Gering.

The Public are, however, warned that, as this Servico is somewhat precarious and still able to suspension without notice, letters will only be accepted at senders' risks. In the event of the servien belng agalis suspended all letters will be forwarded via Suce.

"Tarzan the Tiger." -

Three old "Tarzan" favourites re- turn to their jungle in "Tarzan the Tiger," Universal's sensational new chapter play, with sound, the first Chapter of which will be seen at the Central Theatre on next change.

The old favourites, who made such n hit in Tarzan of the. Apes," the previous sensationally successful feature, are Frank Merrill, Natalie Kingston and Al Ferguson.

Morrill and Miss Kingston again furnish the romantic interest; and Ferguson is an engagingly trencher- ous villain. Merrill again appears as Tarzan, the master of the Jungle, and Miss Kingaton plays the part of Juno, Lady Greystoke.

"Torian the Tiger" is even more vivid and exclling than "Tarzan of the Apes" Tarzan the Tiger" is based on Edgar Rice Burroughs famous novel, "Tarzan and the Jewels Opar."
