The five-reel picture, "The Pretenders," featuring the dainty and gifted little star, Emmy Wehlen, is an elaborate pic- turization of a woman's strug- gling choice of love, money ar cial position. Unusual stage set- tings are used, while the out-of-doors scenery is photographed at beautiful ind picturesque locations in and around New York City and the Adir- ondack Mountains. A two-reel Uni- versal photoplay, a rapid-fire comedy, and the people's choice, the Pathe News. Two refined acts of feature vaudeville will also be on the bill, At. The Strand. Dorothy Daltoh and Howard Hick- man are co-stars in 'The Jungle Child" the latest five part Triangle Photpplay, which will be sg¢en at the Strand 'Theatre for, the first three days of this week. The Jungle Child is a weird drama of the Brazilian forests and New York city telling the gripping story of a Spanish beauty and a worthless American adventurer. The scenes open in Brazil and jis later transferr- ed to New York cify when amid lJux- urious surroundings it is brought to an intensely dramatic close. . Charles Murray in a two part Keystone Com- edy "Maid Mad" other good photo- plays and high class vaudeville, will round out an excellent programme, ng At Griffin's. When Mae Murray was tangoing on Broadway in "The Follies" not so very long ago she would have laughed at the idea of ever playing a really dramatic role bn the screen. But times have changed, and in "The Big Sister," which plays at Griffin's the first half of this week we see the talented little actress in an imperson- ation of Betty, a girl of the submerg- ed stratum, who is perfectly honest and upright. The settings are the actual parts of New York City where the story is laid, apd Miss Murray travelled from Los Angeles to New York in order to take her part on the right ground. As an extra added at- traction there will also be shown on the same programme episode No. 1 of the wonderful serial, "The Crimson Stain," which is beyond a doubt the greatest subject ever produced in serial form. Our. vaudeville--Les Valadons--a wire cyclist act, is one of the best acts in vaudeville to-day. We also show one of those popular Frank Daniels comedies. This is without a doubt one of the strongest bills we have ever placed before our patrons. WOMAN BROUGHT TO PENITENTIARY Sentenced at Regina to Four and Half Years for Burglary and Receiving.
