LITTLE FALLS NOW HAS A REAL.
OPERA HOUSE

The Victor theatre was opened to
the public Monday evening when the
play, "The White Sister" was staged
before fair sized house.
The seating arrangement in the new
house proved to be very good, the
stage being in plain. view from all
seats. "The White Sister'' is a play
the subject matter of which deals
with the life Of a young lady who has
entered the convent because Of the be-
lief in: the death Of her lover, who is
supposed to have been killed in Africa
With the return Of the lover he wish
es the sister to leave the order for him.
The play shows clearly the struggle
between love and religious vow in
which the latter finally trimuphs.
The cast, with the exception Of
Sister Giovanni which part was
taken by Clara Lewis, and fMonsignor
Saracinesca'' which was ably handled
by Eugene Murphy, was not as strong
as it should have been. The scenery
was fine.
The Albrecht Stock company, which
has a five night engagement at the
Victor, are putting on some excellent
shows at popular prices. .= =s
