Opera House next Friday and Sat. urday.- It is the internationally famous Company of Canadian ox soldier entertainers known to the | theatregoing public as the "Orig | nals." Starting first as the Dumbells | and later organizing their dwn Com- pany, the Originals have in their cast fifteen members of the Original eighteen Dumbells. The revue which this company is bringing here is called "Rapid Fire" and has all the earmarks of being the brightest, snapplest, and most elaborate of all their productions. known favorites Red Newman, Jock Holland and Jimmie Goode. But there are; in reality, no stars. Every one is a real entertainer of note and the revue opens with a bang and runs right through in the same lilt- ing manner as its predecessors. "Rapid Fire" is a potpourri of good things. presented in a variety pro- gramme of twenty-five mammoth numbers all new, which includes ai! sorts of musical numberd, comedy skits and sketches, single and con- certed numbers, otc., etc. Leonard Young, the managing di- rector, is the designer of several of the costumes and composer of some of the songs. Jack Ayre is Tespon- sible for much of the music while many of the Lyrics were written by Bertram Langely, Alan Murray and Jack McLaren, all of which prove that the Originals have an aggrega- tion of clever people who can write, produce and present an entertaln- ment that always pleases. ST. DENIS REA 8 CHAR. BY WALK "Every women is plainly labelled in a secret writing that the initiat- ed can read," said Ruth St. Denis In a recent interview. "The lazy girl betrays herself by the way in which she walks. The bad tempered girl is apt to show it by hasty little steps and gestures and the girl of hign mental development broadcasts the fact by her every movement. "I do not claim that dancing is a cure-all," Miss St. Denis continued. "I do not claim that it can do all for the individual that the practition of auto suggestion, for inetancs, claim for their method, but I do think that dancing, yes, dancing in diaphanous garments, is good for the soul." In the case of the Denishawn Dancers who together with Miss St. Denis and her husbard Ted Shawn, will appear here at the Grand on Thursday, April - 24th, it would seem that dencing does bring ail hearts into tune, for a happier az- gregation of individuals it would bs hand to find. The youth and maidens who compose thd company have ail been Denishawn students for several seasons and are now like one family. In fact it is the invariable rule of Miss St. Denis and Mr. Shawn to re- fer to thelr 'assoclates as "our chil- dren." Sei STRONGHEART AT THE CAPITOL. Strongheart, the wonder-dog, will be seen on the screen at the Capitol Theatre on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in '""The Love Master." "Strongheart" selects. his own mas- ter, irrespective of the: party who | has the legal title to him. The story is laid in the sparséW-settled northwestern regions of Canada, and centres around the mystery of a with Strongheart, and ends with the solution of the mystery and the vio-| tlement along with the youth.
