We beg to call the attention of our read
ers to the notice of the Annual Meeting OF
the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
animals, which is to be held ut Kings Hill
on Monday next commencing at 3 O'Clock
D. m. Full details of the procedure on the
occasion will be found in the notice. We
have further been Informed that Mrs. (0uv-
ern0pinde) Helweg-Larsen will attend the
meeting and will distribute the prizes. The
cause is a good one and the method of the
S%nciety's working is Il very promising one.
We hope that the invitation will be very
largely accepted, especially by those who
have a direct interest in animals as owners
curetakers or otherwise.

GRIPPING DRAMA
PLEASEs At SAVOY
"The Confession" Is Well
Presented by Coterie of
Savoy Players

When James HalIeck Reid wrote
The Confession" which was produced
at the newly opened Savoy last night,
he sacrificed much OF the thing called
realism in order to throw together a
conglomeration of what large por-
ticn of the theatergoing public de-
mands in the way of melodrama.
That the sacrifice was well made
was evidenced by the generous ap-
plause that was accorded each and
every scene in which virtue triumphed
over sin and the machinations OF
''cru-e-el fate" and bold, bad
French Canadian fisherman, whose
murder of the heroine's brother made
the nucleus of very mellow and
dramatic plot.
This same bold, bad French Cana
dian fisherman, by the way, Is none
other than that versatile character
actor. Andrew Robson. who made
famous the title role OF '4The Wolf"
Robson saves THE Confession
from sinking into a slough of mcdi-
ocrity. He interjects gripping real
ism, vim. dash ana tobasco into "The
Confession" at the very moments
when one is tempted to give up and
forever renOunce mefoGrama as
relic OF primitive theatricals.
THE Confession" goes into the
heart of Christianity as exemplified
by the Roman Catholic church. 1t
tells Of the sanctity and secrecy Of
the confessional.
Andrew Robson. as the Frenoh-Ca-
madam, confesses to the parish priest
that he murdered the man with whose
Staying the priests brother Is charged.
The priest Is called as a witness at
his brothers trial. but his lips are
sealed. His testimony Injuries rather
than helps his brothers case. Thomas
Bartlett, brother of the priest. Is
found guilty and sentenced to death.
A word of the confession made by the
real slayer would save the brother.
but the secrets of the confessional.
the priest holds. are sacred, and he
holds his peace
OF course, after while the real
murderer confesses his crime and all
ends happily.
John Bryce, as the priest, kind
generous and loyal TO his faith. Is
we'll done.
Miss Vera McCord in the part OF
Rose Creighton creates sympathy for
the character by her sweetness and
loyalty to her fiance.
The honors of the drama. or melo-
drama. as before intimated, are car
rfed away by Andrew Robson. His
French Canadian dialect is impec-
cable, his best scenes are charged
with strength, and vigor.
