i
ACADEMY PLAY
MADE A BIG HIT
WEDNESDAY EVE
Performance elaborate and
well staged.
Large Ct of Characters Included
a Numhrr of Well Trained
Children.
The annual entertainment given by
trie pupils of St. Agnes Acailamy last
Wednepday at the Imperial theatre
was a complete miccpm. The well filled
io.e was an Indication of the appre
ciation of the people of Alliance of the
work done at the academy.
The boys were at their best when
-presenting "The Enchanted Violin."
Kaymond Weyrens, Victor Eldml,
Itichard Smith and Arthur Smith de
serve to be especially mentioned.
1 The charm of the operetta, "Over
the Rainbow," was greatly enhanced
by the beautiful gowns or the parti
cipants. Helen Hylton rustained the
part of the Rainbow Queen to a nicety
that displayed a decided talent in
dramatic art. The minor roles Here
all they should have been and evident
red perfect attention to every detail f
the parts they were presenting, viz:
children, train-bearers, maids of honar,
heralds, winds, moonbeams, Funbeams,
dewdrops, flower artists and fireflies.
The importance of the last mentioned
characters was evidenced by the ap
plause they received from the aud
ience. The high school play, "Patricia,"
was pronounced a great success. Viv
ian DuRay played the role of Patricia
with great credit. The part of Octavia
was admirably sustained by Margaret
Urennan. I'hilomcne Dniley displayed
unusual talent in the difficult role of
Fiavia. Madge Dunn did clever work
impersonating Augusta, empress of
Rome. -
These characters were ably sup
ported by the remainder of the caj-t,
each of whom displayed a mastery of
her individual part. Special mention
should be made of the slaves who
executed their dance with perfect pre
cision; also of Mina Wil:-on, the blind
dancing girl, who charmed the
audience with her graceful tambourine
lance.
The vocal polos rendered by Mary
Agnes King were greeted with showers
of opplause from the appreciative
audience. 4

Then, however, fortune smiles upor
the young lover. He learns that a no
torious pirate has Ix-en sentenced to
die, and according to the Chinese cus
tom of the day he oilers to die in the
pirate's place for a share of the con
demned man s wealth. The deal it
closed, Tnl Leung agreeing to go tt
the guillotine in retuin for some of the
pirate's riches. Tai Leung has but five
days to live, but he goes to the pirate'i
cave and takes what he desires ol
money and other valuables. Then he
rushes ofT to buy his sweetheart arid
lavish his new-found wealth upon her.
Subsequent developments make a st n y
of the most intense dramatic interest.
The common bond of loneliness drew
together Kosario, the Seeker and the
Drifter, the principal characters of
"Tropical Love," the Rialto theater's
offering tonight. Ruth Clifford is
i -tarred as Kosario, Reginald Denny as
the Drifter and Fred Turner as the
Seeker. Rosario, beautiful child of
nature', wondered why her skin was
fair and her mother's brown. The
Seeker knew not who he was, whith
er he came from nor where he was
going. The Drifter, young and edu
cated, had cut himself away from the
bonds of society to find adventure. On
a sugar plantation in Porto Rico, fate
threw these three together, and each
became something precious to the oth
er during the adventure and mystery
that followed.

from Ralph Connor's famous book,

Royal Mounted police have ever par

of a young man who leaves his home
in Scotland and joins the forces of the
mounted police. There is a jcirl in the
story, a romance and plenty of thrills.
Many things happen in the vatneas of
the great Canadian Northwest, where

coated riders who strive to keep the
law. It's a land where only the
strong survive and where i iti-tn who
is quick on the draw has the edge on
his fellows. Ralph Connor knows this
country as no other writer in the
world, and his story is a revelation of
''ring deeds and romance. If you
