GAIETY THEATRE PICTURES. TO-NIGHT. “LILY OF THE'DUST,” Critics who have seen Pola Negri’s latest starring picture for Paramount, "Lily of the Dust,” declare it is like the steeple of a cathredral, the crowning ornament of many years of careful building. The story deals with the struggles-’Of a girl with the world, but it is not a story of generalisations. Three men only are involved, and each of these three influence the girl for good or evil. While the background to the four important figures of the drama is a colourful glimpse of European life with its vices, its virtues, and its infinite variety, the chief characters themselves stand out with the vivid strength of silhouetttes. In the cast chosen to'support Pola Negri in “Lily of the Dust,” which is to be shown tonight, are figures which have stood for genuine achievement on both screen and stage. Ben Lyon, Noah Beery, and Raymond Griffith head the cast.
