the misguided man takes his wife to a mine which he has stolen. Bruce (Nil- liam RusseH) again seeks to intercede, this time to save his life, for he real izes that his appearance at the stolen property will mean his death at the hands of the outraged owner. It is from this point on that the drama leaps to the realm Of thrilling action and eN- citing expense, with the climax always in doubt.
 Mutt and Jeff furnish the comedy with one of their cartoon creations.
 The Strand
 The much heralded thriller, "The Grim Game" with Houdini in the lead ing role, proved all the sensation claimed for it when it opened yester- day to capacity audiences at the Strand. The airplane accident is the most remarkable camera record ever thrown on a screen in this city. The two planes are seen to race acrosse eGhe skies at amazing height, and sud 1 denly they are seen to plunge together 1 in an accidental crash, but the impact was so terrific that they became locked together, and to fall to the earth thou sands of feet below. The camera man riding in a third plane was Ion the job' and photographedthe biggest thrill jom" and photographed the biggest thrill of the collision until the machines hit the earth. But the airplane accident is but one of the many thrills in "The l Grim Game" The super feature is re- plete with them, and they run the en- 1 tire category from watching Houdini 1 escape from handcuffs and prison locks to releasing himself while hanging head downward on a rope from the roof a skyscraper incased, in a. straight l jacket.
 Frying to Get Along. is the com edy, while the Prizma and the Pathe News balance out the highly exciting bill.

some instances the offenses have been
repeated The situation has reached
alarming proportions. and with the
warmer weather approaching there will
be an inevitable increase in fatalities
due to reckless driving unless there is
immediate and concerted cooperation

at large"
The Mayor said there was an obliga-
