Amazing and delightful features
from the famous Triangle plays in
motion pictures will be presented at
the Empress theatre Sunday and Mon

haps needless to repeat that a pro

near perfect in every detail as motion
picture genius can make it. The feat
ures to be offered tomorrow and Mon
day have been given the same care
and consideration in manner of pro
duction as any from this famous film.
Tonight the program will be drama,
comedy and Pathe News. Surely suf
ficiently varied to satitsfy all. The
principal feature, however, is Florence
Reed in the famous emotional drama,
“The Dancing Girl,1” in motion pic
tures. The personal charm and fas
cinating power of this talented young
American artist lend themselves read
ily to the screen, and her grace and
beauty of form not only render Miss
Reed particularly suited to the role of
“The Dancing Girl,” but make her a
welcome and valuable addition to the
photoplay world. This particular star
in this particular screen play is wor
thy of your patronage.
