FRIDAY, APHIL 29, 1921. THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG. 15 Theatrical At Griffin's, There is an extra big at Grif- fin's for the balance of this. week Blaine Hamnierstein, one of the most popular screen stars of to-day and "who Is always a favorite In Kingston, i8 appearing in 8S. Jay Kaufman's, *\Greater Than Fame," and the audi- ence was gredtly pleased initial presentation last night. Ther is also being shown a comedy of the kind that pleases everyone and a pic- | ture showing a number of the most | prominent ¥movis"' stars that is worthy of special mention. As an extra attraction this theatre has something that pleases the old well as the young in Murray's drained dogs a troupe of canine ac- bill 8 tors who go through a number of | acts that are amazing to the audil- ence. It is an entirely new dog show, As the animals perform stunts which | 'have never before been shown on the stage, Their work brought forth rounds of applause last night. In "Greater Than Fame," Miss Hammerstein has a role that gives | her ample scopes for her talents. Miss. Hammerstein possesses that | 'particular quality of girlish types who have to battle -@gainst the world, winning their wa. through sheer pluck and ability. Her appeal in pictures of this class is un- | questionable and she gives a charm- ing performance as Margaret Brooke, a country girl awhofoundthat @ happy heart was greater than the fame for which she worked so untir~ ingly and against such odds There are many dramatic mom- ents in the picture, and Miss Ham- merstein's talents as an emotional actress are brought into play in a manner that leaves no room for doubt as to her ability to portray roles. of this character. In fact, it is the best picture she has appeared in, and will add new laurels to those she has already won. Prizes at Griffin's For the last half of this week the management of Griffin's has made special efforts to provide entertain- ment particularly adapted to the children. Murray's Dogs will prove "a gold-mine of fun" to the "kid- dies." With a view to stimulating the interest of the 'kiddies' the manage- ment has arranged a special contest for next Saturday afterneon. Every child purchasing a ticket will have on that /ticket a duplicate number, and t/ 5 number, announced, from the s/ ge, will admit the fortunate bearer to any performance next week. In all more than one dozen of these duplicate tickets will be pro- vided, so there will be plenty of op- portunity for the fortunate win a prize.--Advt, At The Strand. "That's the :greatest I ever saw," remarked a patron of the Strand last night after seeing William S. Hart in "The Cradle of Courage," the thrilling crook story of the under- world, and you can rest assured he knew what he was talking . about. This attraction is one of the best scweened 'here this season and should not be missed by anyone that is fond of a real thrill. There is plenty of ' action, suspense and romance, and Just enough of a sprinkle of comedy to keep you in the best of humor; in fact it is one rattling good picture. Alice Howell certainly did make them "howl with delight for she kept the large audience in a roar from the start of the feature comedy until the end. Phyllis Devlin sang 'in her usual 800d voice and was received with a rousing applause. The famous Strand orchestra under the direction of Mig- non Telgmann played theirgway into the hearts of the big crowd and re- ceived a real ovation. The usual subjects completed an excellent bill.
