EMPRESS THEATRE.
ttepieio with lease dramatic situations and. an ultra-modem humour, "\\ antlering Daughters" bkis ink to be one oi the fflosi popular pictures ever screened in tile city. It is being shown to-day at the Empress Theatre, and provides amusing comets between yesterday and to-day. 'ihe Bowdens, who belong to yesterday, find their pleasure ■in sociables and the home orchestra, but their daughter, who represents the age oi jazz, finds her pleasure in the ridiculous revels of the sensation-seeking set at the country club. It is a toss-up as to which is the funnier, the trick" orchestra that makes life at home miserable for the up-to-date Bessie Bowden, or the silly parties in which the younger set indulge. Last, but not least, there, is the servant in the house who gots the craze lor jazz. Alice Howell, the inimitable comedienne, takes her fling in drama, in the role of the servant. Her attempts to keep up the pace set by the example of her employer's daughter are as ludicrous as the satire of the story. The supporting films are of a high order.' The novelty interlude will be a series of dainty dances arranged by Miss Lucy. Sullivan and executed by dainty Billie Murphy. The box plan is at The Bristol till 5 p.m., then at the theatre.
