Tyler at the Grav + Opera] House, fer two nigats commencing | next Fridav, Januagy 4th., with al matinee Saturday, occupies a field] quite singular and alone. It is not a| war play in the common acceptance of the phrase "war play," in that it] does not contain' shooting or even the echo of a battle, and yet its big | scene takeg place in a hospital near the front "somewhere in France," and its characters are either of the war or are concerned directly in the| war It might be described as a sindy in patriotism in out of rhe way places, how the love of country and the desire to do her bit affected a simple, wnlettered girl, a drudge in a London tenement house, and how she| rose (o heroism though only the] help in a hospital. Miss Ryan was! the first actress after Miss Taylor to play the title role in "Peg O' My Heart," and she' performed the char- acter in the large cities over one thousand times.

The North End station shows as a deserted wreck to freight terminals huried in snow or with an occasional engine or line of freight cars frozen to the sid- ings. The photographs of a ruined foundry, a sugar refinery and a print- ing establishment closely resemble the war pictures taken somewhere in France after a period of German oc- cupancy.

It is a screen drama with a novel angle and a thrilling, fast moving storx of the times, Pearl White, the beautiful serial star in the fourth episode of "The Fatal Ring." was another added at- traction, and she is unusually beau- tiful and clever in this chapter. This well balanced and high class programme will he given a final ex- hibition this evening. IRI The Late Allan McDonald On Friday eveniiig, Dec. 28th, 1917, 'Allan E.
