Erect Special Platform -^ei-si)eetal -irfatformr^5wned by the Sunday Evening club will be erected to accomodate the large group of players. A phase of the World war not so com- monly discussed as the activity in France, will be reviewed by Major Gilbert who will speak on the subject, "The Romance of the ^ast Crusade," or the story of General'^Allenby's expedition into Jeru- salem. Major Gilbert was one of eight broth- ers, all of whom held commissions in the great war. Of English birth and educated at the Royal Naval Academy, Portsmouth, Ma- jor Gilbert later went on the stage, ap- pearing in London in leading parts un- der the management of Sir Charles Wyndham, Cyril Maude, W. S. Penley and Weedon Grossmith. ~He was playing in "Peg O' My Heart" in New York when the war broke out, and immediately resigned and returned to England to ot- fer his services to the War office. Distinguished War Record In the war he saw service at the first great Somme offensive and later spent five months fighting in the hills of ber- bia, Bulgaria and Greece. He then was assigned to Egypt under General Allenby. He was with General Allenby through the entire campaign and was present at the capture of Beersheba, the taking ot Jerusalem, and the capitulation of Jericho. His division led in the advance across the Jordan, and participated in the fighting in the mountains of Moab. Major Gilbert's stories are said to be splendidly told and his experiences vivid- ly portrayed. "His rehearsal scintillates with humor from beginning to end, com- ments a critic.
