The wistful loveliness of Irene Rich has never been seen with quite su telling effect as in her latest starring | vehicle, “The Silver Slave,” which is | now being shown at the Lyric ami Embassy Theatres. : She plays the part of a \outhful widow, victim of gold-seeking parents, who married her to the highest bidder, while the man she loved was cast aside. She is determined that her wilful daughter shall not make the same mistake, and takes it upon hex- t self to use her personal charms to win away the rich undosxrables whose wooing has captivated tb” child. This she does successfWlv. not without causing furious anger in the heart of file vouns woman until the reason is explained. Brilliant and glamorous is this story of modern people. The j cast includes Audrey Ferris, Holmes j Herbert, John Miljan and Carrol Xy. The background of smart society in beautiful natural sui-roundings. together with the buoyant vigour of the acting, and the charming creations of Paris worn by tbe women of the cast, make “The Silver Slave” a comedydrama well worth seeing.
