Suffs or no Suffs, you have to | hand it to the ladies and credit them | with deing something worth while in giving us "Linger Longer Letty," | which hegins the last two weeks of its engagement at the Grand Opera | { Haase, Wednesday, December, 22nd, | Qhe night only, for Anna Nichols | twrote the comedy and Charlotte! |dreenwood puts it over. Miss Green- | wood as Letty make 'Linger Longer | Letty", which is a comedy with mu- | gic, all that a comedy is said to be. | The story is a modern version of | 1 Cinderella, in a way. Letty is one of a | | bunch of sisters and is the only one | | that can sew and bake and because {of the difficulty of getting good cooks in these modern times, she just | | naturally finds herself in the kitchen | most of the time while her sisters | amuse themselves with dances and | festivals. Incited by her father to re- | bel, she starts a strike, comes out of | | the kitchen, engages a male dress- | maker to attire her and makes an im- | mediate hit with the young men who | | formerly were altogether too atten- | | tive to her sisters. Her co-conspira- {tor in the plot to become beautiful is | Jimmie, one of two brothers who | have been paying court to her sis-|€d on Friday evening at St. George's = | ter, Nancy. Jimmie is also angular | {and needs making over; so successful | are Letty and Jimmie in their pro- | j cess of recrudescence that they fall | lin love with each other. Those who saw Miss Greenwood in "So Long | | Letty" will appreciate her in her pre- | | sent role, which offers more oppor- { tunity for her own particular style | of comedy. She is screamingly funny, | the looseness of her limbs and the | way she dances, invariably convulses | the audience. A big cast and beauty chorus supports Miss Greenwood, in- cluding, Olga Roller, Curtyne Eng- lar, Muriel Cole, Chona Paula, Rob- ert Higgins, George Sweet, Frances Bendsten and Oscar Figman.--Advt. Coming to the Grand. Eugene O'Brien, the popular Selz- nick star will be seen at the Grand Opera House, Monday and Tuesday of next week in his latest production, "The Broken Melody." This play is a romantic story of two young artists, a painter and a singer, who attempt { to climb the ladder of fame through the sacrifice of their love for one another, only to find that love is the force that drives all ambitions to suc- cess. Critics claim this to be the most pleasing vehicle the star has ever Lad. There will also be another fine feature, "Clover's Rebellion" starr- ing the beautiful and talented star, Anita Stewart. A strange meeting in the woods started Clover Dean in her rebellion against being forced into marriage with a nobleman. She pre- ferred the young doctor with the funny looking automobile. There are reels of Big V. comedies and other subjects and a special musical pro- gramme by the Grand's orchestra, who have just recéived a number of late selections. This bill will -be seen the first two days of the week only. --Advt. At Griffin's, Three of the most remarkable death-defying stunts ever tried be- fore the camera will be done by Tom Mix, the screen's dare-devil in his lat- | est William Fox production, "The | error," which will be the headline attraction at Griffin's for Monday, | ¥uesday and Wednesday. Despite his | past achievements as an impersona- | ior of Western characters, in the por- bt of which he has caused his au- diences throughout the land to gasp at his death defying stunts on the screen, it can be safely said that in "The Terror," he eclipses anything he | has previously done. Briefly the story | concerns the efforts of 'no HNmit" | Carson, a United States Deputy Mar- | shal to run down leakages of gold | from the Sonora Gold and Copper | Mining Co. Following an investiga- {tion Carson suspects Sheriff Canby and Con Norton, owner of the Odeon { dance hall, who are using as their tools Fay La Cross a dance hall girl, and Phil Harland, her lover, who is | -onfidential secretary to the presi- [dent of the mining company. It is only after a series of thrilling esca- | pades that Carson brings the culprits | to justice and wins the love of the | sister of Harland, one of the suspects | who is found to be innocent. 'The | Terror" is another Mix masterpiece, a real western thriller and will pay Jor to see it.--Advt. . At The Strand. For sheer beauty of settings and photography, "An Arabian Knight," starring Sessue Hayakawa, is one of the most remarkable pictures of the year, according to the critics. It is a Robertson-Cole Special and will have a run of three days at the Strand Theatre beginning Monday. The experts who have seen this unusual photo-play are united in standard in production methods. And when they say this they.say all that there is to be said. "An Arabian Knight," from the pen of Gene | Wright and adapted to the screen . by E. Richand Schayer, has just as 'charming a story as it has beauty {of finish. It is a story that breathes the very atmosphere of its locale, | Egypt and the pyramids, and thanks to Mr. Hayakawa, the lovable and | interest-holding hero suffers mothing by his transfer to the screen. And ,betors much more can be said ! about the technical and artistic fea- { tures of the picture it must be noted (that the critics also acclaimed the THE D er | This afternoon and evening the com- JAILY B AMATEUR NIGHT AT GRAND Amateur night was the big event | at the Grand Opera House on Fri- day. The place was crowded tg the doors to see local amateurs per- | form. Ernie Marks, who was in| charge, had all the performers do their little stunt, and then, after every person on 'the list had acted his or her part, all were paraded across the stage, and the ones who received the loudest applause were Eva to be declared .the winners. and Teddy Radcliffe, who sang a couple of songs, and Frank Bezeau, the dancer, took: first money. : The applause was. so even that Mr, Marks decided toMsplit the money. The others whescothpeted were Ed- gar Martin, ster J. Woodhouse, | Reynolds, Master Stewart A. H. Thomas and C. R. The Marks company put on the play entitled, "The Girl He Could Not Buy," and was well received. pany will again appear at the Grand. AT ST. GEORGE'S MISSION EE The Children Enjoyed a Christmas | . Entertainment. Santa Claus, all in scarlet, with | white fur, and jingling bells, arriv-| mission house, into which eighty | children, their fathers and mother's, | big brothers and sisters and neigh- bors, had packed themselves so tight- ly that poor old St. Nicholas found it difficult to reach the platform, where the lovely tree, with its twinkling | lights and lovely presents stood ready for him to distribute its gorgeous | fruit. While awaiting his arrival | there was a fine programme of reci- | tations, carols etc, some of the per- | formePs being only five years old. | Rev. W. E. Kidd, M.C., passed the gifts to the children, assisted by the | teachers, Miss Laura Ryder, Miss Victorie Ryder, Mrs. Newell, Mrs. ! Frizzell, Mrs. Hallam and Miss Hilda Fenning, and then "God Save the King', was sung, and the tired, but happy children, each with a pretty gift, sald good night and "A Merry Christmas."

Hayakawa as Ahmed, a rollicking ['Bgyptian boy who might have step- ped out of that famous tome of ro- | mance, "The i Nights." As Ahmed, Mr. Hayakawa | departs considerably from his accept- ed role as tragedian; he even essays _subtle--and sometimes broad-- com- edy and gets away with it to the | entire satisfaction of the hard-boiled | erities who passed on the first show- | Ing of the picture, which is a novelty in more ways than one.--Advt.
