“SEALED LIPS”
COMING TO EVERYBODY’S I For as long as man became eivi- | lised, and acquired the vices of civiiij sation, men have sought for the inagic sign of the “streak” of luck that would | enable them to win at any gam** of chance they might try. In spite of the fact that religion, as such. condemns gambling, men have tried t<* invoke the power of the Deity to help [ them. Superstition has also played i a prominent part in this eternal search S for the “gold touch” or “lucky break l as gamblers term it. Some men are (born gamblers, and some will always lose. In the long run. of course, every- ! body loses, if he insists upon playing ! continually. This is one of the theme* i with a powerful climax of “Soaled ■Lips,” the new Columbia feature in t- e ! Waldorf series, which comes to Every- ‘ body’s Theatre to-morrow, starring I Dorothy Revier with Cullen Landis. [ There is something in the flash of the cards, for instance, that draws men back to them in spite of misfortune, again and again. In “Sealed Lips.” according to pre-view notice, is an elabo- ' rate interior of an exclusive gambling j house in operation. For those who I do not care to visit where men gamble awify the results of much hard lab.unin a few minutes, this scene should ! prove interesting.
