The trial, the confliot, the heartbreaks, and finally the healing vision of hope and mutual respect that goes Into the making of this home is the story of this play. The Pantages presents a crowded list of special attraction's on their bill for next week, with a famous troupe of Persian acrobats, an unusual dramatic sketch, and an official war office picture vlelng with each other for prominence. The Al Golem Troupe of Imperial Court performers of the Shah of Per. sla already have appeared In this theatre.

It is revealing no managerial secret to say they were immediately re-engaged tor another tour of the Pantages circuit There are 17 performers In the troupe. "The Chalk Line" la the title of the playlet to be presented here. It would not be fair to cat this an ordinary skit, for In reality It Is a three-act play, condensed to 25 minutes. The story takes its title from an actual incident In Limerick, Maine, the home of Harlan E. Knight, who stars In the playlet as an old grocery store keeper.

The story deals wiiji two old mossbacks and a charming 18-year-old country miss. The pictures, which are Issued by the Canadian War Records Office, depict picturesque Incidents of the notable tour which the Irish Hangers' Battalion made of the "Ould Sod." Other acts of next week's bill are: Queenle Dunedin, the variety girt; Ralpa Bevan and Beatrice Flint in singing and talking Interruptions, and Foley and O'Nell, a couple of self-described "nifties." Mile. Luxane, tltlan -haired and petite, with her corps de ballet will come to the Strand next week. Luxane's program, which will be given at each performance, is an Interesting one. It embraces: "The Awakening of the Mutes," 'Russian Maiurka," "The Butterfly and the Rose" and -The Oriental Fantasy." Hector, the trained dog, who does everything except apeak, assisted by his troupe of "pus," will furnish amusement and wonder for the kiddles and Also the "grownups." The Gorman Brothers are song writers of note.

They will sing their own songs. Their lyrics are catching and the tunes tilting. Jonathan completes the bill Wherever he has appeared Jonathan has proved a drawing card. Besides talking, he draws cartoons and trick pictures. The motion picture bill will be headed by the second episode of "The Voice on the Wire." To Form Dramatic Club Mrt P.

Walker, who last week visited the University of North Dakota at Grand- Forks, and talked with Prof. Koch who has accomplished so much through his work with the la the drama, both literary and acting, and whose students have written and produced their own pltyr, has decided to carry out a plan she ha been formulating for son.e time She will organize a class ok-young ladies and gentlemen interested in the study of the drama and having histrionic talent or the dramatic Instinct in writing. THU claws will read up, discuss and produce at least four plays a season and perhaps more. If any member of the class writes a play deemed worthy a public hearing, that hearing will be given It It is expected that many the University Dramatic society members will avail themselces of this further opportunity to pursue their favorite study. 'Intolerance' Booked The attraction at the Walker for an early date will be D.

W. Griffith's latest masterpiece, "Intolerance." In "Intolerance" Mr. Griffith has traced a universal theme through various periods of the world's history, Ancient, sacred, medieval and modern times. The scenes of the. four distinct stories follow In rapid succession.

There is no attempt at historical sequence, but the events are shown as they might flash across the mind in an effort to parallel the life of the different "Intolerance" shows that through all the ages the same passions, the same Joys and the same sorrows have obtained and Mr. Griffith symbolizes them by the cradle, endlessly rooking. Through It all the events I shown are caused by the Intolerance of man. VillGive Greek Plays Arrangements have been concluded by the Symphony society of New York with Margaret Anglln and Walter Damrosch to give a festival of Greek plays in New York next winter, similar to that given bv them In San Franclgpo during the Panama 1 Exposition. Miss Angiln's first appearance in the Greek classics wag made at Antigone in 1910.

Juveniles to Repeat So insistent has been the public demand for a repetition at popular prices of the concert given in the Fort Garry hotel- 'ast Tuesday evening by the turned Soldiers assocl- Iation Juvenile Entrrtalner3 that the management ha.s futind it necessary Blow to Actors I I INTERNATIONAL theatrical relations have been seriously affected by the submarine menace now in force In the waters adjacent to Great Britain and France, and should the danger of transatlantic travel continue, these relations will be completely brought to a stop, says The Dramatic News. "Elizabeth Marbury had planned to take a company of players to London on the St. Louis for an engage- ment in the musuM comedy. "Very uood Eddie." but this arrangement was abandoned owlnr to the submarine menace, and Miss Marbury cancelled her sailing. She has now sold outright her Interest in the1 London production of "Very Good Eddie" to Alfred Dutt, who will stage the musical comedy at one of the! West End playhouses In the Spring.

I The danger of becoming a victim of the underwater boats will prevent the exchange of American and English players which, heretofore, has prevailed uninterruptedly. Therefore, It Is quite certain that, until the war Is over, or until the Germans modify their sea campaign, no more "all-English" companies will tie seen 1 on the American stage. It is certain that "all-Amerrotn" companies wu not attempt to bid for honors on tl' I English stage.
