EVERYBODY'S THEATRE.
"DADDY LOftG LEGS." "Daddy Long Legs" is still proving extremely popular at Everybody's Theatre. Janet Gaynor and the story by Jean Webster are equally responsible tor the sensational success of ' 'Caddy Long Legs," but some credit must bo given- to the producers, also for the way in which they have handled the delightful tale of a Cinderella without mangling it out of recognition. Also they have not overdone the "sob stuff,' and the opening scenes in tha orphanage are full of charming natural humour, provided by the star and some very capable juvenile players. . The box plans are at The Bristol.
