EVERYBODY'S.
NOTED SOUTHERN BEAUTY IN' "HYPOCRISV" Society comes in for its share or "muck raking" in the William Fox photo-drama, "Hypocrisy," starring Virginia Pearson, that noted stage and screen Southern beauty, showing for the first time at Everybody's to-night. Her part is that of a young Bociety woman, through whose fondnes.t for gambling falls into the pitfalls of so-called high society. She has two lovers, parts taken by Alfred Swenson and John Webb Dillon, one of whom she marries, only to continue to receive attentions from the other. The rejected lover naturally develops into a villain, and the society woman's love of bridge lets her fall into his hands through a gambling debt. she is saved in good time by her husband and the realisation in her own conscience of the shams, bluffs and hypoorteies of society. The picture plav lias its many situations, only found in Fox films, and altogether is a drama of sound moral and artistic merit.
