HIS MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
All the fine qualities which have made Olive Thomas such a successful photo-play actress are displayed to the full m the Selznick attraction "The Flapper," now being shown as a special attraction at His Majesty's Theatre. As a girl on the verge of young womanhood, who cannot see why she should not live the life of a grown up, she learns the truth of the old adage which says that "pride goes before a fall." Likewise she learns that a "flapper" is just a girl of tender years, not qualified nor equal to the high life which she had been taking unto herself. *It _is a picture of real drama, real humour, and a wonderful combination of both, while the youthful acting of the beautiful star is a real pleasure to witness. The play is m itself original, and as Miss Thomas's acting always possesses that characteristic, she makes the most of the opportunities which the picture gives her. There is a good supporting programme. This picture will be screened finally this evening.
