On account of the farge refrigerator in the cafe base- ment, the five would have a tendan- cy to go west rather than north in that basement.

It is one of those stories in which every member of the cast is under suspicion. It has been worked out in such 8 way that the real villain is not found until the last hundred feet. However, "The Gorilla" is not all chilly thrills, It abounds in laughter elicited by the actions of those two famous detectives, Mulligan and Garrity, played by mainsprings of the stage play, and they have lost nothing of their comedy situations in the screen version, "The Gorillia'" is said to be ev- erything that entertainment should be. It has the elements of mys- tery, comedy and pathos. You'll probably shriek, gasp and laugh at "The Gorillia,'"" coming to the Regent theatre tomorrow after- noon, where it has been booked to Jenin for the balance of this week, On the same program the man- agement is presenting "The Old Wallop" one of the famous Our Gang comedy creations which with the Paramount News and special music by Jack Watson and his Regent orchestra, one will find it dificult to beat such a bang-up bill of entertainment crowded in- to two hours at Oshawa's theatre beautiful, BEN HUR The biggest things are the sim- plest, Not complexity of emotion, but its depth and truth mark real greatness. In the instance of "Ben-Hur," the film coming next week to the Regent Theatre, love and revenge are the supreme mo- tives. Revenge--to overthrow the Roman who destroyed the House of Hur; Love, in inconsolable pas- sion that makes its hero search the wide world over to find his lost mother and sister, snd Love, the flowering of youth's emotions to his true mate, Esther; these are the keys to Ben-Hur's heart, and these are the elements of ap- peal that make his story so en- grossing, This marvelous story has now been picturized for the first time from the world-famous novel and stage play, and will be presented at the Regent Theatre next week, The great motives of the picture find their climax in the Antioch Chariot Race when Ben- Hur overthrows his enemy Messala and in the wondrous ending where Esther finds the lost ones and brings them to the Saviour to be healed.
