It i everyday e, in which a young novelist who s au as she the Met fro A Than Poetry.' r ~ er it raises vital questions and reaches an tionally strong climax but best it has a happy ending, which comes as a complete surprise. ; The vaudeville consists of Rotchrock and McGrade, a very clever pair of young nwen,. who present one of the best musicdl acts seen here in a long time, Especially pleasing is their harp and banjo playing The Pathe News and other reels complete this strong programme, which will be repeated the last time to-night. At Griffin's. A capacity audience witnessed last evening the superb special feat- ure offered by the management of this' popular theatre as a Christmas attraction, '""The Narrow Trail," Wiiich™ features the famous infer- preter of the "Wild West," William S. Hart. Fritz, the famous pinto pony belonging to the gifted actor, per- forms many remarkable feats in the picture, and figures almost .as, pro- minently as his master. Each is a king of his kind, the man a leader of men, and the horse a leader of horses. In **The Narrow Trail" William S. Hart portrays the cha- racter of the leader of a band of out- laws who falls under the influence of a beautiful girl. Herloves her with all the desperate passion of which his wild nature is capable, and determines to reform, but by so do- ing his source of income would be abandoned. However, a cowboy race, one of the most spectacular scenes. ever filmed, solves the pro- blem. It wins the outlaw an honest stake and the girl he loves. At the Strand. A programme of exceptional merit was viewed by large and appreciative audiences yesterday afternoon and evening at the Strand. Jane and Katherine Lee, the baby grands of William Fox productions, were seen to advantage in that comedy drama, "Tw ittle Imps."" This production gives these talented children full op- portunity to exhibit all their film genius. As "Pwo Little Imps" left in the care of their Uncle Billy at the 'hotel, they hélp Billy in his wooing, they aid in reformving Billy's sweet- heart, Brother Bob, and finally take part in a battle that lands two burg- lars in the hands of the police, after the crooks have ad Bob's pals, at- tempted to rob his father's apart- ment. They do all this in their own inimitable way. The picture is The bil, including comedy reels, will be shown for the last time to-night. For the iast three days of this week at the Strand Goldwyn presents Madge Kennedy in "Nearly Married." Miss Kennedy will be remembered for her excel- lent work in "Baby Mine." "Nearly Married' is acclaimed a worthy suc- 'cessor to the former and is described as a story of an almost bride and a note quite bridegroom, a story of a roadhouse where they serve nothing but chicken, "The Voice on the Wire." With the threatening warnings over the telephone, the baffling dis- membered hand, the unfathomable mystery staring you in the face at every hand, you are witnessing one of the most thrilling and exciting serial stories on the market.
