HAYWARD'S PICTURES,

"THE DARK SILENCE."

"The Dark Silence," featuring■ Clnr.j Kiiuball Young, will head tin' new programme to be shown at lla t yward'.s L ru> tiu;cs to-night. The work of'this fayor.ciu* blar as Mildred White is a revelation in acting. The heroine's -position is one of indescribable pain. She has married, but her husband, blinded in a gas attack, only -kuowslier for the nurse who brought him to life and eared for him. The surgeon promises that his sight may be restored, and she knows that he will then recognise her for tho woman whom lie believes to have b,een false. Clara Kimball. Young is completely suited in this role, ana. makes full use of its emotional" passages.
