The prevailing cool weather does not appear to affect. the sports com- mittee at the camp as that organiza- tion has already arranged a big pro- gramme for Wednesday. There are seven field events--150 yard race, 1 mile relay race, (4 teams) of 4 men each, running tread jump, high jump, shot put, sack rate, loot race, besides bayonet exercises by pla- toons, zig-zig baseball throwing, mus- Kketry competition, and to ¢ap all, a soccer game between teams repre- senting the I.S. of 1. and Eastern De- pot Battalion. If Mister Weather Man will only loosen up a hit, and shed a few warm rays on the "Commons." keen pulsating competition is looked for. The soccer game is expected to be more of a burlgsque affair as neither team has reached the perfec- tion stage, but in any event, it will be a good drawing card, and make a fitting close to a good day's sport. "Punch" Derry and "Attaboy" Stagg, the smooth working battery of the "ration spreaders' make a fine pick and shovel act. Both are in hard training for the big event at the fair on Wednesday the twenty-sixth, Speaking about the ball game at the "Ex," it looks from the interest now being created that both teams will present formidable line-ups. Sergt. Minnhock who is scouting for the Med= decal team, is daily uncovering new material, and alrefdy has signed up three new faces, whom he claims will swing on the pill so hard that Derry and his squad will be hopping over the diamond like flies on a hot griddle. .

The intention of the Military Service Act is not and was never framed with the intention of tearing| young men from their home ties and flinging them : ruthlessly into the | melting pot of war.

He prevents a bogus lord from committing a big owe! robbery. And he wins the $6,000 and the girl. It takes a star of Mr. Barrymore's rare ability to fittingly screen. The rest of the bill is varied and excellent, 'and includes a Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew comedy, two- reeler, "Her Great Dilemma," "What a Clue Will Do," and the | Pathe News.

The honor of being the first ad vance agent in the city for the fall and winter attractions at the Grand Opera House fell to the lot of John T. -Pearsal, who is head of the big musical production, '"Florabella," which will be here on Sept. 20th. The production is very highly spok- en of, and promises to make a big hit. At the Strand. The large audience at the Strand | last evening enjoyed to the full the | splendid programme provided for the first three days of this 'week. All were loud in praise of the screen artists, ' Mmse. Pavlowa, celebrated Rus- sian dancer, appears to good advant- age in "The Dumb Girl of Portici," The supporting cast, together with | the splendid scenic and lighting ef- | fects, make this the best vehicle for this noted dancer in whith to dis- play her charm and grace. Little Mary MoAllister, in "Do Children Count?" is "sweet and charming, and wins all hearts by the way she brings together hearts which have been sundered by mis- taken prejudices and happily saves her father from financial ruin. A Musty Suffer comedy, really funny, completes a well-balanced bill for to.night and on Wednesday. The musical accompaniment is well handled and adds much tb the en- joyment. At Griffin's. An unusually large 'audience at- tended Griffin's last evening, and thoroughly enjoyed the high class programme presented. The feature picture "Her Strang Wedding," star- ring the brilliant Lasky stdr, Fanny 'ard, is a powerful story concern- ing an incident of everyday life, which is common to the knowledge or experience of everyone--the win- ning of a girl's affections by the weaker and less worthy of two brothers because he had the more at- tractive personality of the two, Next in order is the tenth episode of that immensely interesting serial "The Mystery of the Dbuble Cross," which continues to sustain its 'popularity. A team of clever sketch artists cone tributed their iota to the entertain- ment, and were well received. This excellent programme will he repeat- YOU'VE ALREADY HAD WARNING OF COOLER NIGHTS AT HAND.
