PRINCESS THEATRE.
mere is no more popular star than Gloria Swanson. Talented,. beautiful, and breathing the spirit of the modern girl, she invests her role in "Prodigal Daughters," now screening at the Princess Theatre, with great dramatic power, the picture offering her opportunities that she takes full" advantage of. The star is supported by wellknown players in Ralph Graves, Thecdor.e Roberts, Vera Reynolds, Louise Presser, Maude Wayne, and a number of others equally notable. The story is strong, a story of the defiance of their parents by two daughters who want to live .their own life away from the conventions of home, and their Teturn. They come to the realisation that home stands for something, for the real love and happiness that are-the stable things of life rather than the glaring vaunting of the vanities of life that must inevitably lead to unhappiness. The supporting picture is "Love's Bomerang, in which David Powell plays the stellar role. The ■ remaining : pictures are of excellent quality, end the music is good. •
