EVERYBODY'S THEATRE.
The programme at Everybody's Theatre is headed by a piqtare of special interest to women, "Slander the Woman," a Pirst National pror duction, Dorothy Phillips," the wellknown dramatic actreas, is star, and she is assisted by a strong cast. Story, acting, and settings all call for more than passing notice in this gripping tale of a ypung' woman whose' good name was sacrificed by an ambitious judge. The elemental hnißatj appeal of t!)e character of the girl, suffering under the misjudgment of her friends, bufj determined to fight until the wrong is righted, is brought gut to the full by Miss Phillips, who strengthens her place as one of the screen's foremost emotional actresses. Occasionally the,re are touches of natural humour to enliven the picture, but generally it depends upon the strange pranks played by fate m the development of the lives of the prinqipal figures. The second feature is "Women Who Wait," starr-. ing Marguerite Clayton, Greighton Hale, and Cjec-rge MacQuarrip. It is a gripping, vital story of the strife between two brothers for the love of one girl. A charming and quaint fishing village on the fog-bpuiid Cape Cod coast provides a background of unusually picturesque and beautiful settings. Jt-uth Roland is seen in "Human Vultures," a further stage in the serial, "Timber Queen." Everybody's Popular Orchestra plays delightful incidental music.
