Don't forget that' this programme will be given its last showing this evening: artists and all effe "Out of the "The Wanderer." The great Biblical drama "The Wanderer," "which comes to the Grand Opera House for an engage- ment of three nights, with matinee on Saturday, commencing Thursday evening, Jan, 16th. There is a scene which might well apply to the youth of today, although it is supposed to have occurred in the Holyland over three thousand years ago, in the time of King Solomon, This scene shows the. mother, Hulda, (played by that great artist Florence Auer), giving advice to her headstrong son, Jethor (played by Frederick Low), as he is about to leave the protecting influen- ce of the home for the big city of Jerusalem. The boy protests that he wishes to go to the city to seek fame and fortune, and that he will be able to take care of himself; but the mother lays her hand on his arm tenderly and says: "What dost thou know eof the City, my son? - Things are not as our dreams tells us. To such as thee, the city yielded but little, and from such, much doth she take away. They who would conquer there must fix their gaze upon harder roads than thou dost choose. Thy lips are soft rounded--would they were stronger. Thy hair is soft and curly--would it were rough and firmer... For I fear Jethor, whem 1 think of thee in the great city, and, most of all Jether, I fear the women of the city. How unerring was the mother's instinct in warning Jethor of the women of the city of Jerusal- em is proven in the second act of "The Wanderer," where the boy falls under the spell of a vampire of old Jerusalem, who succeeds in geiting from him every shekel that his father gave him upon his departure from home. At Griflin's. Wonderful Charles Ray again de- monstrated his popularity when an enthusjastic audience witnessed his latest! success, '"A Nine O'clock Town." In this phetoplay this ver- satile star has one of the finest pic- tures of his repertoire to date, and this is saying a great deal. The story is an excellent ane in every re- spect, ang affords Mr. Ray excellent opportunity for the disflay of those talents which have placed him in the foremost rank of American cinema stars. Pauline Fredericks in "A Daughter of the South" shared the honors \with thg above feature, and was also claimed to be of superior merit in entertainment value. This programme will be shown for the last time to-night. At the Strand. Emmy Wehlen, in "His = Bonded Wife," a smart, up-to-date comedy drama of society life, was a delight- ful attraction at the Strand. - See her to-night, In this picture Miss Wehlen: is supported hy a east of well-known "and distinguished play- ers, headed by Creighton Hale in the leading role. The story is that of 3 beautiful young society debutante who wishes to he sure that the man she marries is in love with her for her own beautiful seif and net for her wealth. With this idea in.view she leaves her luxurious home and lives the. quiet. simple life of a girl} fn ordinary circumstances, Here she meets and falls in love with a young architect, who is also in love |® With her. She still poses as a poor {carne girl, however, and the unusual com- plications which arise humorous sitnations-- well as many semi-tragic ones---to the clever] play. 18 NOT QUALIFIED, Lieut, A G.
