It is a singular faet that clergymen seldom, if ever, endorse a play with- out reservation, yet in the case of the morality play, "Experience," written by George V. Hobart, which comes to the Grand Opera House to-night and Thursday, matinee and night, they have broken all record for en- thusiastic commendation. One rea- son why the clergy have been so warm in their approval of "Experi-} ence" Is to be found in the fact that the play carmes a lesson. Primarily 4t is a play 1or purpoves of efietain- ment only, but as it tells the story youth going 'nto tae world, and his triumpia over the maze of templa- tions which usually beset youth on every hand, # has been pronounced by the clergymen as a wonderful help to all, @ youth going into the world, and his of a widely contrast- ing maure in this big, gorgeous, glittering drama of life, all show- ing some phase of the temptations, trials, troubles and tribulations, joys and sorrows of youth--the average young man who goes forth into the world unprepared for the pitfalls set for unwary feet, At Griffin's.

"Doing Their Bit," with Jane and Katherine Lee in the leading roles, is also at this theatre, and they are said to be more droll than ever in this latest of their cycle of plays. Both humer and real dramatic thrills are sup- plied by these youngsters, who are the youngest stars in screenland, Don't overlook this programme when looking for an enjoyable even- ing"s entertainment, At the Strand. Again the Strand forges to the front with an all-star programme for Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The features will be first "The Trap," starring Alice Brady, the production was staged in a quaint fisher village, and the scenes are among the most beautiful ever seen on the screen. Miss Brady appears in the role of Doris Shaw, the | daughter of a fanatical fisherman. | When the rough fisher lad, who is in love with her sees her become in- terested in a stranger, he frames up {a trap whereby it appears that she is not only indiscreet but bad. Doris' father casts her from his home, For the extra feature we offer a new {star to Kingstoniauns, Belle Bennett, in "The Lonely Woman," a master- n | piece of characterization dealing , with the wonderful faith of a wo- man 'in her husband, who has been sentenced to Sing Sing, though in- nocent.
