PAINTINGS OF DESTINY"
is UNUSUAL PICTURE

Merit attaches 20 the whole pro-
duction of "Playthings Of Destiny
starring Anita Stewart, the Associa-
ted First National Pictures attrac-
ton which opened an engagement
Of two days at the Lyric Theatre
yesterday. Seldom has a dramatic
story been told so skillfully, and
rarely has an author hit upon n SER
les Of instances so certain 70 hold
the interest of an audience Com
bine these with the excellent talent
Of the cast, and the splendid set
tings and effects that have been
procured, and "Playthings OF Dos-
tiny" becomes worthy Of classifi-
cation with the best screen enter
tainmcnts.
Anita Stewart naturally has the
stellar honors in the cast, but Her
bert Rawlinson and Walter McGraIl
as well as Richard Hcadrick, DO
work which entitle them 90 the
highest Of praise for the histrionic
ability they display Each Of them
does a bit Of character building
which makes their roles as real rs
If they had spent their whole lives
in the environment surrounding
the characters.
A short sketch Of the plot Of the
story would give an entirely wrong
impression Of II. To say that a
woman is deceived into committing
bigamy, despite the fact tina, her
entire love belongs % tho first man
she has married, sounds bizarre,
but the circumstances which lead
20 Just this situation in "Playthings
of Destiny are the sort that no
other course is possible FOR Julie
Laneau, the character portrayed by
Miss Stewart, TO pursue.
