Information, autres enfants, notes, etc.
Alda was a victim of the Laurier Palace Theatre fire, a disaster which took place on January 9, 1927. During a crowded showing of the comedy "Get 'Em Young", the theatre was packed with nearly 300 patrons, most of them young children. A small inferno broke out; the ensuing panic was immediate, and terrible. The terrified children quickly formed a human stampede, blocking the doors, which opened inward, and trapping themselves inside. Firemen arrived, and quickly extinguished the blaze. By then, however, it was too late. Seventy-eight children were crushed,smothered, or burned to death.
