The patrons of the Allen Theatre are in for real entertainment the Arst three days of this week, when | two leading stars in their latest productions will be shown.

At the Strand. Harold Lloyd and Bebe Daniels form a combination at the Strand Theatre that is hard to beat when it tomes to producing hearty laughs and merriment. Lloyd is recognized As a comedian who does not have to resort to "slapstick" variety for his comedies and In this, "A Sallor- Made Man," his first super-comedy, he has clearly demonstrated that it is not necessary to throw custard pies to make people laugh. This feature is four reels of good clean amusement of a high order. Be- witching Bebe Daniels has . gained fame as a leading female star "The Speed Girl" she acquits herself with a great deal of credit. The story of the picture deals with her incarcera- tion in a Los Angeles jail last sum- mer for speeding and the liberties she obtained are enough to tickle any man's funny bone. Wherever these two pictures have been shown together they have been proclaimed to be excellent en alnment. They have packed a number of larger the- atres than the Kingston Strand night after night, one of which was the Toronto Regent. DELEGATES ARRIVING.
