EVERYBODY’S .
“THE AMERICAN BEAUTY” Adapted from a short story of the same name by Wallace Irwin, “American Beauty,” to be shown at Everybody’s, in addition to “The Cat and the Canary,” to-morrow, is the whimsical story of a beautiful girl who has no money, but conceals the fact behind a screen of pretence in order to catch a millionaire for a husband. When she finally has the millionaire in her net, of course, she discovers he isn't such a catch after all. Lloyd Hughes lends his pleasant personality and masculine handsomeness to the leading role opposite Miss Dove. Walter McGrail, as the millionaire, gives a finished performance, and Lucien Prival, a comparative newcomer to the screen, stands out in a comedy role of unusual nature. Margaret Livingston, A 1 St. John, Edythe Chapman, Alice White, Yola d’Avril, Loretta Young, and others, are in support.
