At the Liberty

Should a young girl be made TO
suffer for q scarlet strain" in the
life of her mother?- Would o marry
a girl over whom hung a cloud be-
cause of a supposed misstep in the
career Of one OF her parents? These
two questions are asked and answer
ed in The Scarlet Shadow" Mae
Murray's newest Universal Special
attraction, which comes to the Liber-
ty theatre today.
The little sister star OF Modern
Love-" Her Body in Bond" Danger,
Go Slow" and THE Brides Awak-
ing'' is seen as Elna Evans, a lovable
little maid, on whose good name is
cast a perpetual shadow because of
a scarlet strain'h which her maiden
aunt alleged existed in the life of her
dead mother. On this account the
aunt kept Elna a virtual prisoner,
guarding her day and night from
contact with the world. fearing that
the scarlet strain" of the mother
would assert itself when the daughter
came face to face with the tempta-
tions Of the universe.
But one day a romantic young col
lege boy invaded the sanctuary the
aunt had built around Elna, persuad-
ed her to go to the movies, n to
partake Of a sinful chocolate ice
! cream soda. 1t was then that life
began to take on complexities for the
girl, for hat first visit to the outer
world changed her whole life. 1t took
her from Greenwood, a little New
England village. to New York, the
whirlpool metropolis.
