EMPIRE
“SILK STOCKINGS” “Silk Stockings,” starring Laura La Plante, will be presented at the Empire Theatre to-night. This is a comedy which skits along
the border of tragedy but never touches it, and is hence superbly funny, Miss La Plante, as a result, will take a firmer hold than ever on her title as the greatest comedienn screen’s greatest comedienne. Universal’s beauthing more neces-
tiful be-dimpled, blonde star is a perfect trouper, a thing more necessary in the comedy held than in straight drama. The story is logical and concerns the troubles of a newly-married couple, their little spats and. their decision to air their differences in a divorce court. The second feature is the official picture of the Heeney-Sharkey fight, showing every round of the contest.
