It is heralded as a featare out of the beaten path--a photoplay de luxe, An English fox hunt is shown, which has an important hearing on the plot of the story, and contrgsted these English scenes are scenes in and Bast Indian village. The prac- tices, ceremonies and superstitions of the Hindoo, and the colorful life in the troples are all pictured withut- most vividness. As the picture was taken in Florida, some amazing scenic effects were secured. Miss Dana shines forth in the role of the litle Hindoe dancer, for she is given ample opportunity to display her rare talen as an actress, and a dan- cer as well: A George Ade fable, the Pathe News and a good comedy reel will also be shown. A high-class vaudeville act completes the pro- 'gramme for to-night and "again Fri- day, matinee and night. x nacont "Come Back to Erin" Coming to the Grand on Thursday for one night, "Come Back to Brin," with Walter 'Lawrence in thé reman- tie Irish role, lovers of this type of play will enjoy the added distinction of witnessing the performance of one who is a bright star in the theatrical firmament Mr. Lawrence has all the charm- ing characteristics of the true Irish- man, which is the keystone of his irresistible personality The story of the play is far beyond anything heretofore atfdmpted in the way of an Irish comedy drama, there is pone of the hackneyed and 'stero- typed themes and situations that have been identified with produc- tions of the, Irish comedy of the past. > "Come Back to Erin® is an up-to- the-minute story 'of true Irish life, replete with dramatic situations that sure-fire vein of comedy. During the progress of the play Mr. Lawrence will introduce several songs, and deliver them in a manner quite individual with him. "Bringing Up Father Abroad." The laugh that crosses a continena, is the way some judges of successful production of the theatre are de- scribing the newest' George McManus cartoon 'musical comedy, 'Bringing Up Father Abroad." As in the other "Father" productions, by the car- toonist, it is "Jiggy" Mahoney, the Irish contractor, who stars in the plot. This time he decides to take a trip to his old home in Ireland, and there his troubles begin, and the laughs begin to run wildy, "Bringing Up Father Abroad" cofmes to the Grand next Saturday, Febedary 2nd, matinee - and night. The company includes John E. Cain, in 'his ex- | lation of funny original character- ==! ization of "Jiggs," also Cain's popu- lar teammate, Blanche Newcomb, also Robert Rice, 'the screaming but- ler of a prior "Father" 'production; also Marion Benson; Ben Bryon, Ed- die Leamon, Madeline rey ag oth- ers, : At the Strand. To-night will be the last. chance that theatre:goers will have to see the splendid production at the Strand of the Paramount film, 'YHis Mother's Boy," in which Charles Ray plays such a wonderful part. This story is full of interest and the packed hduse last night amply testified to its popularity. In' additions Charle Chaplin was shown in his laugh-pro- ducer, "The Cure," and, as usual, caused much amusement. For the I last part of the week the manage- ment has secured a double. feature bill, consisting of Dorothy Dalton in "Love Letters," a Paramount pro- duction, and Franeis X. Bushman and Beverely Bayne in "The Voice of Conscience" Both these productions "are of more than . ordinary merit. Keystone comedy will also be shown. { At Griffin's. "The Little Princess," Mary Pick- =| ford's latest screen success again at- tracted a large audience to Griffin's last night, who were highly delighted with this charming photoplay. In this #ruly remarkable production Miss Pickford eclipses all former tri- umphs, which is sufficient. evidence 8 of the superiority of the play.
