AMUSEMENTS, MEETINGS, ETC.

THE GRAND. FINAL SCREENING OF “A DANGEROUS GAME” AND “THE IDLE RICH.” Gladys Walton is appearing on the screen ot the Grand Theatre in “A Dangerous Game,” a motion picture adapted, by Universal from the Ladies’ Home Journal story, “Gret’u Ann,” written by Louis Dodge. “A Dangerous Game” opened its showing yesterday and was well received, particularly by two types of fans — those who like a simply told wholesome story of girlish love. and those who enjoy au expose, complete in every detail, of the fakes and trickeries of spiritual parlors. In writing the story Dodge brought the girl into contact with the fakirs in a delightfully entertaining adventure affecting the financial safety and peace of mind of a rich oil king who has the charming weakness of believing in most of the tilings he sees.

The . supporting star features Bert Lytell in ‘‘The Idle Rich,” a live-reel comedy drama of more than usual entertainment.
