They find Chadwick hidden in her wardrobe, Uuf by a moHt daring and brilliant move she saves him. The price six? pays '."■>• do so, however, is a terrible one. The position, becomes extremely complicated owing to the fact thii.:. Eunice • relieves Chadwick to have fired the shot, while lw thinks it was she. Ihe settings of the picture are fine to a degree and probiably no screen ever producedmoro beau/iful garden scenes. In addition there is a remarkable cabaretscene with an exhibition of fancy skating which is quite a revelation. Seats may be reserved at Upton's.
