MARGARET ELLINGTON Is
GREAT EMOTIONAL ACTRESS

In the new French play Until
Eternity which Margaret Ellington.
the finest representative actress of
emotional roles. among the younger
generation of players of this coun-
try will present here for the first
time at the oregon Theater, on Tues
day, August 80 there are many ele-
ments which go to make it a great
success quite Independent of the in
trinsic work of the play. whose value
is said to be quite as worthy as "The
Thief" the last play in which Miss
Ellington appeared previous to her
retirement from stage life two years
ago. In the first place, Miss Illing-
ton has gained a secure hold on pub
lie favor as an actress of wonderful
emotional power and a woman of
charming personality, as fine as any
player on the American stage. The
other element is the completeness of
the production with which she has
been associated. In her new play
Until Eternity" all these qualifica-
tions are said to be admirably sus-
tanned both as regards her support
ing company, the mountings and stage
accessories.
