(If he were to invest $10,000 in her education. and introduction into so- ciety, would she In return win a rich man who would keep him without want for the rest of his life. How this agreement was entered iito and how the bargain was nearly broken made an interesting story that proved to Le something new and original, Besides this novel photoplay there vas also the Pathe News, a very amusing comedy and other reels, The vaudeville was Roy and Wilson, en- tertainers de luxe, who provided an act that was away above the average. This bill will be shown again to-d night and also Wednesday both ma- tinee and night. Coming, "Lest We Forget," "Lest We Forget" is the great screen drama for which the world has been waiting. Its historical sig- nificance will make it of value as long as the world stands, for it shows in visible form the causes that brought America into the war, The story tells of the violation of Bel- gium and the leading of its citizens into captivity, the wanton destruc- tion of magnificent cathedrals and the inhuman treatment of innocent women and children shown both on land, and in the sinking of the mam- moth ship, the Lusitania. These are all shown in this thrilling produc- tion, The star of "Lest We Forget," beautiful Rita Jolivet, was herself a passenger on the ill-fated boat when it was torpedoed, and that made Miss Jolivet the logical star for this tre- mendous feature. Her vivid Trecol- lections of the details of the tragedy enable her to give the picture many touches of realism that otherwise would not have existed. Don't miss this' wonderful film which will be presented at the Grand Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week, along with a two-reel comedy and the Pathe News, At Griffin's. In spite of the inclemency of the weather prevailing' last evening many people wended their way to this popular: place of amusément and witnessed with undisguised ad- miration and delight a truly ex- ceptional programme, headed by the scicen's greatest actress, Pauline in what is termed the supreme trivmph of her artistic car- eer, "Resurrection." This is one of the 'big' productions of the year, and stands out ag a masterpiece in the annals of the motion picture in- dustry. A story that is dramatic, bordering on tragic, and one that will stay in one's memory Jong af- ter witnessing the picture. Coupled with the superb art of Pauline Frederick; this picture becomes one that should be seen by everyone, not only for the genuine entertain- ment it gives. but also for the les- son i teaches. TRESPASSERS BEWARE! Visitors to Fair Grounds Without In- vitation Are Unwelcome. Following the theft of a large quantity of copper wire from .the buildings at the Fair Grounds, R. J. Bushell, manager of the Kingston Industrial Exhibition, has taken the matter up with the civic officials. The result of the conference is that a warning is to be placed on the grounds that trespassers are to be prosecuted, and the frequent visits of the policemen should prevent fur- ther damage to the buildings. No mercy is to Le shown to those who wish make the dilapidated buildings any worse than they are at present. DESTROYING LAWNS, Horses and Cows Allowed to Run at . Complaints have been made to the Whig about thorses and cows be- ing allowed to wun at large in the vicinity of Frontenac sdhool. Lawns have jbeen trampled, also flower gardens. The horses and cows have i been allowed to stray mreund the 'neighborhood at night, and as a re- sult much damage has been done. "It is wi shame the jway the horses and cows are allowed to stray around," - said one citizen to the Whig. "Some action should be taken to jkeep them off the street 80 they will not cause fall trouble." { The conductorettes had a busy day handling the ¢rowds on Monday. Lake Ontario Park was a pleasure spot on the holiday.
