EMPIRE
TWO BIG FILMS
Florence Vidor completely changes her personality in “The Girl of Gold,” which comes to the Empire Theatre to-night, for she appeal's for the first time in her screen career as a blonde. She is the pampered daughter of a Californian millionaire who unsuccessfully tries to break into New York society. The daughter then ass u m e s another name and falls in love with a nan who had . previously agreed to marry the “Girl of Gold” for a money consideration, before he had seen her. The. complications that ensue make a highly dramatic screen story. One striking episode is staged on the sixteenth level of a gold mine, where a society ball is in progress. When festivities are at their height the mine caves in. These scenes were actually staged in an old Nevada gold mine. “The Claw," starring Norman Kerry and Claire Windsor, will also be screened.
