AMUSEMENTS || What the Press Agents Say About "FATHER IN IRELAND." | | "Bringing Up Father," George Mc-| | Manus' world famed cartoon char- | acters, will appear in person at the | Grand Opera House, on Friday and | Saturday, November 21st and 22nd. | "Jiggs and Maggie" have now be- come a couple pf inveterate Globe | Trotters, as well as society scions. | "Bringing Up Father in Ireland" is | | the title of their latest exploit. Mc- | { Manus should have dubbed his in- | imitable characters "The Tragedy .of | the Rolling Pin." As I very much | fear that the example Maggie has set for young wives, flavors some- what of dire tragedy. I would sug- gest that Maggie changes her wea- pon to boxing gloves, the example will be more timely and will give the | recreant young husband a slim chance for his life, "Bringing Up Father' has become a National Institution, theatregoers look forward to their annual visit with a.great deal of pleasure, know- {ing that the entevtainment was | created for laughing purposes only. Requiring no great stretch of ima- gination, and offering no deep and dark problems to solve. Geo-ze c- Manus believes that the people have sufficient 'tragedy in their everyday lives, without drawing upon the im- agination for a new thrill. "Laugh ---and the crowd laughs with you." "Grouch--and you'll grouch alone," This was coined from old material by "Jiggs" himself. When "Bringing | Up Father in Ireland" is announced | at the Grand Opera House make it { 2 point to secure seats for the enm- tire family, "at once. . | > The Mikado. The music loving people of King- ston will shortly have the pleasure of hearing one of the finest of Eng- lish operas "The Mikado." Ttis opera was first presented at the Savoy Theatre, London, England, in 1885. The story was written by W. 8. Gilbert and the musiec by Sir Arthur Sullivan. "The Mikado" is regarded as the finest of all the clas- sic operas written and directed by Gilbert and Sullivan. It is a fasci- nating Japanese story set to the rar- est of music and has delighted audi- ences all over the English speaking world. It is a tale of 'the mikado of Japan, of princes, nobles and lovers woven against a background typical of the chrysanthemum land. The best talent of Kingston num- bering over seventy-five singers are engaged in rehearsels under the di- rection of Dr. Joseph Andre the dis- tinguished opera conductor, late di- rector of the Johanmesburg Conser- vatory of Music, South Africa, and a graduate of the Antwerp Conserva- tory of Music of Belgium. The opera lovers of this cliy &re looking forward with keen expectancy to hearing many of the celebrated solos, duets and quartettes, which have given the opera world fame, among them the sole "Tit-Willow," the quartette "Behold the Lord High Executioner," the solo and chorus, "He's Gone and Married Yum Yum," "A Wondering Minstrel," Yum Yum's gong, "The Moon and I," and many others, Thess people of Kingston who delight In rich music and super- for compositions "wi>»have in ""The Mikado" an opporfunity of once more enjoying a real musical pre- sentation 'Tickets can be had from every Kiwanian and at George Van Horne's, men's wear store, and Mc- Gall"s cigar shop and Hoag's drug store. "THE MAN WHO CAME BACK." Advance reports on the Willlam Fox screen Zum of "The Man Who Came Back," indicate that the picture is more spectacular than the, original Brady stage play produced in 1917. George O'Brien and Doro- thy Mackaill have the principal rol- es, played originally by Henry Hull and Mary Nash, The stage play ran on Broadway for 467 days and in Chicago for twenty-one weeks, Jules Bekert Goodman drama- tized the book by John Fleming Wil- son and the scenario wag done by Edmund Goulding. The picture was directed by Emmett Fiyna. It will open a three days' run at the Capi- tol Theatre commencing Monday. In the cast are Cyril Chadwick, Ralph Lewis, Emily Fitzroy, Har vey Clark, Edward Piel, David Kir- by, Walter Wilkinson and Brother Miller, ~~ O'Brien 1s sald to do the finest work of his career as the dissipated young New Yorker, who becomes an Orfental outcast, too low even for ghal. portraying | the event a syccess, especially to the | doing. of the most stirring human dramas of motion pictures, the everyday emotions | HL in the annals that are the experience in joy and headed by Mae Busch, appears in tears of the millions, A great cast, |} "Bread," which closes at the Strand | Hil to-day. 4 AT ROBERT MEEK SCHOOL.
