ENTERTAINMENTS.
OPERA HOUSE, TO-NIGHT. “FLAMING YOUTH.” “Flaming Youth,” the First National special feature, will be the star attraction at the Opera House this evening and to-morrow (Saturday). The picture, like the book is a startling exposure of ultra-modern society, with its flnpperism and its search for new sensations. The story is so intimate that the author hid his identity under a nom de plume. Whether the author he man or woman is not known, but the writer claims to be a physician, who sees through the body to' the soul of women who are restless, seductive, greedy, discontented, craving sensation, unrestrained, a little morbid, more than a little selfish, intelligent, following blind instincts and perverse' fancies, slack of mind as she is trim of body, neurotic and vigorous, a worshipper of tinselled gods at perfumed altars —a fit mate for the restless hurried man of the age. The picture lias been treated with the utmost delicacy. A big cast of well-known players interpret the various roles and include Coleen Moore, Milton Sills, Eliot Dexter, Sylvia Breamer and many others. The' box plan is at Everybody’s Sweet Shop.
