Whitney, is sending his latest and greatest play, "Saint Joan" to the Grand Opera House, Wednesday, April 22nd, matinee and night. gives some interesting lights on his play. He says: "Joan was a Freachwomen, just as Rodin was a Frenchman, of genius, and both were obliged to go to Lon. don in order to find recognition, I am quite aware, of course that Joan is widely celebrated in France as a saint, but the real woman in her is still as unpopular in her own country as she was when the Burgundians sold Her to the British and the latter delivered her to the French Church and the inquisition to be burned. "France knows very little about Joan of Arc. Instinctively she dis- guises her in her own eyes. She was a saint, and France does not know what a saint is; she adores St. Paul Bert and St. Louis Pasteur. Joan was the first Great Protestant, and France has never shown herself friendly to Protestantism, although a great part of her population adhered to it with ardor. She was a great nationalist. .| 'And less than forty-five per cent of the «citizens of the French Republic are French. Joan was also a masterful wo man, a capable woman, and, as France is the land of masterful women par excellence, the French groan under the tyranny of their wives and their mo- thers so they cannot stand the thought that Joan, even at the age of eighteen, I | possessed more mastery than most women of brains possess at fifty; in fact, this is why the French and the English so thoroughly agreed upon urning her. I will have to overcome all these prejudices and weaknesses when I show France her national her- oine without fear or faver, as she was. I. love the real Joan, but the conven- tional Joan of the romantic stage makes me sick." The curtain will go up promptly at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. for these performan- ces. . DARING, BUT DEFTLY DONE IS 'WIFE OF THE CENTAUR' Production Is Fine Version of Cyril Hume's Novel. A daring subject, delicately and deftly handled, is "Wife of the Cen- taur," which opens at the Capitol Theatre, Monday, for an engage- ment of three days. Cyril Hume's novel of the same name created something of a sen- sation when it was published a sea- son or two ago, and Vidor's picture is likely to start another, APPEAL FOR FUNDS: T0 REBUILD CHURCH { That Was Destroyed by Fire at. Bath--Desire to Restore | Historic Structure. The members of the congregation of St. John's church, Bath, recently | completely destroyed by fire, have | recided to rebuild and the members | of the Church of England and the | descendants of the United Empire Loyalists, are being asked to contri- bute to the re-building fund. The following letters have been receiv- ed by the Whig: To the members of the Church of England; the descendants of the United Empire Loyalists; and the | general public of the Province of Ontario: ' As has already been reported in the press of the province, St. John's church, Bath, was totally destroyed by fire on Saturday, April 4th. For a period of one hundred and thirty- two years this sturdy old edifice bore visible testimony to the pioneer mis- sionary adventure of the Rev. John Langhorn among the first settlers of this province, the United Empire | Loyalists, that intrepid band of pat- | riots 'who, due to circumstances known to us historically, landed on these shores to hew out their homes | from the primeval forest, and lay | the foundations of the future great- ness and prosperity of this banner | province of Ontario. It is on account of these hoary associations that thousands of Cana- dians have felt such love and vener- | ation for this doubly sacred old | church. The many letters and tele- grams of regret and sympathy and i offers of help to re-build indicate | | that that love is not cold; that there i {is yet a vivid and just realization of | | what is due to the memory of the | sturdy pioneers of those early days. | Consequently, at a special vestry of the little congregation of St. John's, held on the evening of Eas- | ter Monday, being encouraged by | [ the many expressions of sympathy | | with us in our loss, and of hope that | we would rebuild, it was unani- | moufly resolved .and determined to { launch out upon that endeavor. What is desired is not .simply to €rect a church for the needs of the present congregation, but to perpe- tuate as far as possible the very form and appearance of the old building, because of its witness to and association with one of the most important undertakings in the early history of this province. The pro- posed new building will rest upon and coincide with the old original foundation and follow such architec- tural lines as to be a replica of the original.

His character is likened to that of the fabled centaur, half man and half beast. John Gilbert gives a striking per- formance in the role of Jeffrey Dwyer, and adds many new laurels to the collection he began with his work in Elinor Glyn's "His Hour." Eleanor Boardman's work as the "centaur"s" wife is most convincing, and Aileen Pringle provides excel. lent contrast as the more sophisti- cated woman who almost wins Jef- frey from his wife.

In the first place his picture is clean as a whistle; sec- ond, it is human; third, it shows class and has enough plot material to satis. almost continuous laughter. The cast is excellent--such people as Helen Ferguson, Lionel Bel. more and Francis McDonald, support the jolly star. The direction by Her- ker is admirable.

To the Clergy and Laity of the Dio- cese of Ontario, and all others whom it thay concern: In view of the very serious dis- aster which has befallen the parish- foners of Bath through the total de- struction by fire of their historic church, and their inability, owing to the scanty numbers in thelr commu- nity, to raise amongst themselves the large sum that will be requirea to rebuild the church, I very ear- nestly commend any appeal that they may make to the rest of the diocese and others for asststance in their great necessity. They will en- deavor to reproduce as far as pos- sible in the new building the form and appearance of the grand old church which has stood for upwards of one hundred and thirty years as a witness of the splendid pioneer work accomplished by .its founder, the Rev. Mr. Langhorn, a famous missionary.
