Local audiences will see this quaint mixture of fun and mother-love exactly as it ran for a solid year at the Gaiety Theatre, New York, and George M. Cohan's Grand Opera House, Chicago, the produéers having steadfastly declined to organize any duplicate or "No, 2" companies. 2 "Turn to the Right" was written by Winchell Smith and John E. Haz- zard, and it is presented by Mr. Smith in association' with John L. Golden, a famous writer of songs and lyrics, Its charm of simplicity and wholesome- ness place it at the top of the list of Winchell Smith successes, which in- cludes "The Bomerang," 'The For- tune 'Hunter," "Polly of the Circus," "Brewster's Millions" and other nota- ble offerings. The original cast is headed by Ruth Chester as the snowy-haired Mother Bascom, through whose Christian faith and undying mother-lave three saan clerks, who will be sent to Belleville in the autumn to look after the work of the discharge depot which is to be established, there at the armouries and for which the armouries have been prepared.

It is arnounced that Bate Me- Mahon of Ottawa has been awarded the contract for the Barriefield 'bar- racks and will commence the work of erection at once. Four car loads of lumber arrived on Wednesday and he has brought thirty-five men "rom Ottawa to do the work. Mr. Me- Mahon has the labor and equipment ; necessary for such a large undertak- ing and the work is expected to go on uninterruptedly. This firm has been engaged on military contracts in dif- ferent parts of the Dominion. No figures are announced, but it is stated that it is likely the contract was let on a percentage basis. The barracks at Barriefield have to be completed in eighty days and the firm holds the record for filling its contracts in the time specified. One official said to-day: "Just watch the Barriefield common for the next two or three days for developments." The soldiers in camp at present will have to go into quarters by the 1st of Oct. and, if the weather is unfavorable, possibly at an earlier date. Col. "Bob" Low, it is reported, will be on the job and his presence is regarded as a guarantee that it will be hustle from start to finish.

Mrs. Castle at Grand. For Friday matinee and night only the Grand will offer one of the most interesting and absorbing photoplays of the season. Mrs. Vernon Castle, the celebrated dancer and actress, will be presented in her latest Pathe release, 'The Hillcrest Mystery. In this picture the plot is of the most entertaining type imaginable as the title would suggest and interwoven through the mysterious proceedings is a very prety little romance. Mrs. Castle is seen at her best in this pro- duction and as she is so well known her name alone ought to be a great drawing card. She has a splendid supporting cast which is typical of all Pathe pictures and the scenery was all obtained on large country estates that were secured for the purpose of making this picture Other films will be the Pathe News, a Lonesome Luke comedy and an O. PMenry Htory. For the vaudeville a dandy act has been secured that will, round out a first class bill, Don't forget that this is for Friday only as "Turn to the Right' will be on Thurs- day evening and "Everywoman' on Saturday both matinee and night.
