ADJUSTMENTS.

Lillian Rhodes in "The White Sister,"
The spirit Of commercialism has
dominated the stage of late years and
the quality Of the drama has been
guaged by the box office receipts.
Judged by this standard the greatest
and most successful play on the Amer
lean stage today is THE White Sis
ter announced for the Grand opera
house on Thursday, Dec. %, with hand
some Lillian Rhodes in the title role
and a cast Of supporting players OF
more than ordinary quality. In New
York City, Chicago and every import
ant city Of the United States, from
the Atlantic to the Pacific coast, "The
White Sister played to the largest
receipts of any dramatic Or musical
company on the road last season and
broke the records for business time
and time again. The White Sister"
was dramatized from F. Marion Craw-
fords novel of the same name and it's
success and popularity is due to the
faithful manner in which the story is
told upon the stage, it's gripping tale
of love and duty and the uplifting ma
ture of the theme. It has special
appeal to all Catholics and at the
same time q vital interest to all other
creeds. Such plays as THE White
Sister help to keep up the dignity
of the drama and at the same time
iafford real amusement.
