Mr. Wilkinson referred to one of the bye-laws, which declared that the Club was open from 7 am. until such time as was stated in a notice posted up on the notice board, when the Club shall be closed. The bye-law, said Mr. Wilkinson, hind been strictly complied with, but recently a notice had appeared on the board to which the members took strong objection The notice declared that any "boy" found serving drinks after 1 nm. ran the risk of dismissal.

Such a notice, continued Mr. Wil kinson, was in very bad laste, and did not conform to the dignity of the Club. He suggested the immediate removal of the offensive notice, and recommended that the

OUR GUIDE TO THE CINEMAS

"Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm" (King's, to-day).Shirley of Twen- tleth-Century is another story of how a diminutive blonde tap dancing singer gets to the top. Misunder standings, Aunt Mirandy, and selfish step-parents are the obstacles which Shirley overcomes with her dimpled smile and winning ways.

Shirley Temple fans are going to find her

more delightful than ever. Randolph Scott, Gloria Stuart, Helen Westley, Silm Summerville and Jack Haley are the adult supports.

“Zaza" (Queen's and Alhambra, to- day),—A classic of stage and screen is reborn in sumptuous style. The powerful and dramatic tale of an filleit love that is stronger than life itself, set against a glittering back- ground of Parisian vaudeville. Sup- porting Claudette Colbert,

the splendid cost includes Herbert Marshall, Bert Lahr, Helen Westley, Constance Collier and Genevieve Tobin

"The Last Gangster" (Oriental, to- day).-Edward G. Robinson has the role of a gangster boss which gives lum plenty of scope for his peculiar talents. Не hoids the interest throughout in a powerful drama.

"Love Finds Andy Hardy" (Majestic, to-day).—When Andy Hardy, one of Judge Hardy's children, falls in love, things begin to hum.
