TRUNGY4., FIV, 10 19%. THE DAILY BRIT Theatrical "The Man From Home." When Rex Snelgrove and Zana Vaughn retdrn Thursday and Friday the will offer one of the best Plays seen here in a long time. Wil- liam Nodge wrote "The Man From Home" and played in it for several! | seasons. So great was it's success that it was not an fincommon thing for the show to he moved from one theatre to another in same city. The Teason for its grea: popularity were many. The scenic effects are most at- tractive, by the way, if you notica such things. Mr. Snelgrove pays par- ticplar attention to his scenery, much of which is especially painted for . @ach week's play. Title-hunting has for many yeurs been a favorite past- time with rich American girls, al- though it has lost much of its novel- ty of recent years. The same attrac- tion still, however, exists among cer- taln classes, at least for the culture of the old world so "The Man From Home" loses none of its interest and Rex i8 'extremely clever as Voehees Plke from Kokomo, Indiana. Miss Vaughn will be a charming rich hero- foe. In reality she remains true to herself but association with a paid English chaperone of fdrtune hunting prociivities blinds her temporarily to the solid virtues of "The Man From Home." ----Advt, Albert De Courville Revue, At the Grand Opera House on Sat- , urday, Nov. 12th, matinee and night, Albert de Courville Will present his latest and greatest revue, entitled, "Hullo, Canada." In this revue he will include the principal hits of his biggest and most popular London productions up to the present time. Two of the most popular theatrical artistes in the world -- the famous Harry Tate and the beautiful Shir- ley Kellogg--will be the stars of Mr. de Courville's productions, which will also include the famous 'Beauty Chorus from the Gaiety Theatre, London, the most notable aggrega- tion of beautiful girls in any theatre in the world. It required all the ac- commodation aboard the S. 8. "Met- agama' to accommodate Mr. de | Courville and his company, and al- | ready over ten thousand pounds has been expended by the noted produc- er on new scenery, coStumes, and properties. This is, without doubt, the biggest and most significant scheme of its kind ever attempted for Canada.--Advt. Bringing Up Father Coming.

The story tells of a young political refugee who flees to Winn:- {peg to eStane his enemies, and there, amid the snow-capped grandeur of | the Canadian Rockies, wins fame and { happiness. Thos. who have read the novel know that the action moves along at a swift pace from start to finish, and it is said that the¢ picture is vastly more engrossing than the book. A really marvelous cast wiil be seen in wtich is included Gastcn Glass, of "Humoresque'" fame, Wil- ton Lackaye, Gladys Coburn, Brad- ley Barker, Bizelow Cooper, Jules Cowles, Ann Sutherland, and many others,--an all-star cast if there ever was one. Manager E. O. Smithers is most enthusiastic concerning "God's Crucible," which he feels confident will prove highly entertaining to his patrons.--Advt. r At The Strand. A theme of rich human interest, a production marked by the thorough- make "Shams of Society," the feat- ure afinounced by the Strand for the latter half of the week, a photoplay that will appeal to all and reward them for the seeing. "You envy me, yet 1 etand before you the unhappiest of women. You crave our so-called encicty. May God grant anything but that. Ti js sham--all Sham." Such are the words of the disheartened and disappointed wife, whose troubles over finance form the pivot of the plot. The mere fact that it is a Rob- estsen-Cole production is a guarantee of splendor and beauty in the exter- rale, while the notable cast, which in- NEWS | One Chance of Wisining, A Toronto despatch says: McGill | defeated Queends easily three weeks {280, but many who saw that game declared the score was no criterion {of the play.

It was stated on Thursday mern- ing that it was the intention of the athletic board of control to shovel the field during the day. The ground is real firm so it is expected that when the snow is removed the playing field will be in first-class con- dition. Tha members of the Queen's team are fully confident that they can de- feat McGill on Saturday. On Wednesday afternoon, although the snow was falling fast and "here was about three inches of snow all over the field, the team had one of cludes such notable hames as those of and other famous artists, ensures a | histrionie treat to all who love good acting.

The, Montreal Herald says: Shag wtends to give Queen's famous run- ping half-backs--Leadley and Hard- ing---some worthy opposition. With a line which is recognized as the élrongest in the Inter-collegiate, a McGill victory depends entirely on whether the tackling of the Red and White is able to smother the work of the crack Queen's back division. The analysis of the much-dicussed Varsity-Queen's game discloses that in 32 attempts at maxing yards Var- sity could only move the stick five times, while Queen's in 30 attempts were successful 10 times. Varsity did Letter than this against Mcuill, wnile Queen's were away ahead of the Montreal collegians. The main reason seemed to be that Queen's were considerably faster in attack than McGill and faster 'even than Varsity. What is meant by this is that there was a smaller lapse ot time from the snapping of the ball until it was carried past the line of scrim- mage. Further, Queen's had more men in each play than Varsity. Again and again Varsity sent the ball-cars rier single-handed against the line, and even when he did pierce it there Yas no one there to help hm along or take the ball if opportunity presented itself, Toronto opinions are that if Queen's plays anything like as well against McGill next Saturday as they did against Varsity there should be ne doubt as to the outcéme. They have shown conclusively that they have a most powerful team. County Hockey. Although it will be a few weeks before there will be ice for the coun- ty hockey teams, the Frontenac fans think that it is nearly time a meet- ing was called to make plans for the winter, There is a feeling among the players that the league should be { completely re-organized under a new management. On several occasions, the statement has been made that the county hockey league was opera- ted for political purposes. It is un- derstood that the managemént of the Sydenham teams, which were enfered in the lea- gue last winter, have decided to play only exhibition.games this season. Dominion "Rugby Finals.

W. V. A, I feel bound to pro- test in some way against a letter, or what might more aptly be described as an unintelligible jumble of non- sense, appearing in your paper over the name of the president of the G. WW. V. A, We all applaud the efforts of youth but when youth forgets itself, then it should be spanked, and not having a shingle handy, I shall presume to perform the operation literally through the press. With regard to the remarks of myself at the nomination of Dr. Ross, there was not a single remark on that occasion, either expressed or implied, that could in the remotest degree lead the people of Kingston to think that I represented the G.W. V.A. or any other veterans' organi- zation. I simply spoke eas a veteran, and may I ask who is going to con- test my right to speak as a veteran? or who among the genuine veteranse in Kingston is going to deny that when 'the opportunity appeared, it Was not my duty to support by any means in my power, our soldier can- didate, Dr. J. ss, us it is also the duty of every veteran in Kingston to do the same. I will not believe that such a state of coercion exists among the large body of veterans in King- ston, that when they wish to express their ideas as veterans under any heircumstances, they .re compelled to ¢nsult any such body of individu- als as the intellectual six who com- pose that epoch-making body known as the executive body of the G. W. Y. A. We veterans in Kingston are, with- out doubt, the most fortunate of any in Canada. While others are trying to organize to put a veteran candi- date in the field, we already have one in the person of Dr. Ross--a soldier and a man--not a Barriefield hero or a Shorncliffe ornament, but 2 man whose outstanding character- istic has been his willingness to sac- rifice himself in order to serve oth- ers, a real man who from the very first was where the "going" was hardest. We all know that if the veterans are to get what they want, getting TIME FLIES flies when love is there.
