The complexi. ties of her nature, the combination of hard-hoiled sophistication and appeal- ing innocence, the love of thrills, and beneath it all the frank sincerity of the modern girl—all are brought out in Miss Moore's characterization of a high-stepping London belle whose par- ents suddenly emerged from their ab- sorption In ‘war work to find thelr two chlidren grown into strangers whose ways and manners were a METROPOLIT! After many nights of gay reveling on the part of daughter and weary walt. ing on the part of the worried parents, the story reaches a dramatic climax in the crashing of the flapper's llu. sions concerning her modern hero simultaneously with the crashing to earth of the glant dirigible in which a gay party had been “chasing the fly- ing hours with flying feet." Miraculously escaping death, Colleen realizes “what a little fool she has been and makes her peace with her parents and her flance, who does not belong to the band of moderns. Jack Mulhall, Claude Gillingwater, Clarissa Selwynne and Cleve Moore head the sunporting cast. An amusing Bobby Vernon comedy, “Slippery Feet,” an interpretation of “the Charleston.” and a delightful overture embracing several favorite Kreisler airs,.rendered by Breeskin's Concert Orchestra, are the additional attractions. The usual news reel is included in the program. RIALTO—"“Where Was 1.” Universal presents Reginald Denny in his latest vehicle, “Where Was I,” at the Rialto this week. Tt is a comedy, filled with sfde-splitting laughs, the story of a young business man who loves one girl, whom another claims to be his wife. The amusing circumstances which arise in his ef- N for Coughs, forts to establish an alibl are typical of such complexities. The supporting cast includes Marion Nixon, Pauline Garon, Tyrone Power, singers and dancers. VALUE IS DOUBTED THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
