AMUSEMENTS.

MAIiTON, TO-NIGHT. “THE SECRET CODE.” Gloria Swanson,‘whose beauty, has made her such a favourite, is seen in some]dramatic situations in the Triangle feature, “The Secret Code, ” showing at Everybody’s to -night. One of the most amazing spy tricks in history has been used as the base of this startling story. By means crochet mufflers in which certain stitches denoted certain letters, messages were being sent •to Germany containing vital information. The unravelling of the villainous conspiracy forms a thrilling theme, and Gloria Swanson as the misjudged but innocent young v/ite of the Senator rises to great, heights of aritstic emotionalism. Suspected by the husband she loves of being faithless to him and a traitress to her country, she establishes her innocence in a series of incidents wherein her fnagnificent acting in emotional parts of this nature is given full sway. The story is one of inttuae interest and is presented in an attractive manner that will ‘.grip the attention from the first moment. Barney Sherry shares with her the honours of the leading role, and gives a forceful and real portrayal of the Senator.
