WALDRON 0 AEE THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG $d Theatrical | At the Grand, "The Right to Happiness," the wonderful Universal Jewel produc- tion now running at the Grand will nave it's last showing tonight This photoplay is one of the strongest ever produced ans its star the foremost -emotional act- ress of the seyeen, Dorothy Phillips. The plot runs the gamut of human emotions, love, hate, revenge, and is | the most powerful play ever turned. | oyt by the director, Allen Holubar, | {| who has directed most of the large | { productions for the \iversal, Tha star is supported by an unusual cast | of players, some five thousand being | used. Cities were built and burned | for this picture, and the famous mob | | scene is without equal in motion pie- ture history. The play is a timely one | dealing with the unrest that is preva- lent through out the country today, and offers the only sane solution to the problem. There are reels of ex- cellent comedy and a splendid musi- cal programme by the Grand's aug- mented orchestra which completes | the bill seen for the last time tonight. --~--Advt. Coming to the Grand. "The Great Air Robbery" is the | title of the super feature coming. to! { the Grand the first three days of the | { coming week, and it has for it's star | the world famous' aviator, Lieut. O. L. Locklear, who startled the whole world by his remarkable feats in mid air. In this picture Locklear jumps { from- aeroplane to aeroplane 5,000! {| feet from the earth, and. in fact | walks all over an aeroplane as { though he was walking along the] | street. The fight between a gang of | | air pirates who have robbed the| | United States Air Mail and the pur-| | suing plane is just one of the thrill- | | ing incidents in this play. Charming [| Francelia Billington plays opposite the star and the picture on the whole | is a triumph of motion picture magic. | { There will be another feature of | note, "The Road to Divorce" with | Mary MacLaren as the star. The pic- | ture is directed by Philip Rosen the | man who filmed the "Miracle Man." | | and is a great lessen brought home| | by the appealing story. A splendid musical programme by the Grand's qugmented orchestra will complete this bill.--Advt. "The Revelations of a Wife." Written as a successor to those] mystery plays now playing New | York, namely "The Invisible Foe," | "The Woman in Room Thirteen," ! "Three Faces Past," "The Unknown | | Purple," "The Crimson Alibi At Nine | | Forty-Five," etc., "The Revelations { of a Wife" looks like a worthy one. i It contains everything that goes to | make a mueh wanted modern play of | mystery. A strong well written and | | produced play with an unusual i bright vein of comedy, it is as perfect | a-performance as one can ever hope to see; a play that requires intelli- | gent people to interpret it. It is life | =--real life--modern, yet mystifying, with a delightful vein of real come- dy. This remarkable play will be pre- ented at the Grand Opera House for three days starting Thursday, April 29th, with daily matinee for ladies only. Nights for everybody over six- teen. At Griffin's. Tonight will be the last chance to see Bert Lytell in "Lombardi Limit- ed" his new picture} which has pro- ven so popular with Griffin audiences during the past two days. "Lombardi Limited" is a smart comedy drama, taken from the successful stage play of the same name, and has been made into a screen comedy of en- trancing qualities, with a production of lavish beauty personally supervis- ed by Maxwell Karger. It is the story of an eccentric male modiste, a desig- ner of gowns for the smart set of Fifth avenue. The atmosphere is one of artistic luxury, and there are beautiful girls galore. It is a beauti- ful fashion shown an absorbing love story, and a revelation in beautiful womanhood, whimsjcalities and an occasional heart tug. Don't miss this picture tonight, and the balance of a most interesting programme, which is shown along with it.--Advt. . At the Strand. The familiar story of the country girl who aspires to be a great artist is given a brand new twist in "Luck in Pawn," Marguerite Clark's latest Paramount-Arteraft = picture, which will be the attraction at the Strand Theatre for three days, commencing Monday next. Generally in fiction the aspiring heroine wins immortal fame with 'a masterpiece just as she is about to succumb to starvation, "Luck in Pawn" treats the situation in a much more true-to-life and pleasant manner. Annabel Lee, the pretty heroine, played by Miss Clark, is a country girl whose mother has paid for her art training by consider able sacrifice. Annabel is informed: by a noted painter that her talent is infinitesimal, and is feeling pretty bine when a bored young millionaire, attracted by her unaffect clothes acuagintance with her. The pretty love story that follows, with its rath- er startling ending, is sald'to furnish a thoroughly entertaining comedy picture in Miss Clark's best manner. Charles Meredith heads a capable supporting cast, which includes Leota Lorraine, Richard Wayne, and John director. In addition to the above splendid feature, the Strand rt orchestra will render another fine musical pro- { gramme, and Bert Caldwell will be heard in two musical hits, "Good-bye, My Love, Good-bye" "Byelo,"" ol beautiful' illustrated" slidés.-- Possible Medical Officers, A meeting of the district medical officers was held Saturday morning to take up the appointments of offi- The work of rebuilding the Dese: | To Settle Dispute In Local Bar thecscreen and has for $isi sen cents: and ingenuous manner, strikes up an{ Steppling.

Finally a call was sent to the police station. Constables "Nick Timmerman and Leslie Armstrong appeared on the scene, and after the case was explained to the officers, | the latter ordered him to give up the money. Still he refused. "Come across with the money or down to the police station you gd," remarked Constable Timmerman, The fellow at the bar did not like | the idea of a trip down to the police station, and he gave up the money, | and the matter was allowed to drep. | DOROTHY PEMBROKE With "The Revelations of a Wife" at} the Grand Opera House Thursday, Fri-| day and Saturday, April 29th, 30th and] May 1st.
