Yesterday afternoon a well-seleet- ed bill was greeted enthusiastically at the Grand. The feature picture, "The Child of Destiny," starring Ir- ene Fenwick, drew forth loud praises.

Heaven, For My Mother Came From | There," "The Letter That You," in conjunction with "England, I Love You." Chester B.

When a play wins the unqualified |} praise of tijee such different cities as |} New York, Boston and Chicago, and then becomes the reigning success of London, there is no room to doubt that its appeal is universal. Such has been the history of "Hobson's Choice," the comedy of English pro- vincial life, which comes to the Grand Opéra House Thursday, Nov. 2nd. It ran last winter for six months at the Comedy Theatre in New York, dupli-|}i cated that success in the Hub .and Windy Citv, and is now the biggest laugh-maker in that sad metropolis across the sea. obscure.

Theatrical ------ Big Crowd at Griffin's. The street in front of the Orpheum theatre was blocked - with people on Monday evening waiting to see the great '"Battle of the Somme" pictures being shown there. The 5,000 feet of film reveals far more than any person can appreciate by reading war] accounts and in a vivid manner the very action of the shown. The operators who took the pictures must certainly have taken great chances with their lives, Among those who were noticed in the audience were a number of offi- cers from military headquarters here including Brig.-Gen. T.D.R. Hem- ming, Capt. T. A. Kidd, Major Pon- ton, Lieut. Munsie, Capt. Norwell and others.
