This current release on the Paramount pro­ gram will be shown at the Central this evening. It is a matter of odd interest that Miss Hyland, who has distinguished herself abroad in the stellar roles of many stage successes, should appear in her first American screen offering in an Englishman's play, and .a drama moreover, that won its first success in Europe, repeating its stage tri­ umph later in the United States. Miss Hyland, in the leading role of I^etty Fletcher, the only daughter of the minister of Steepleford, went with a selected cast of Famous Players, headed by Director J as. Kirkwood, to the most beautiful sections of Florida for the purpose «f filming this'superb drama. > IfciT \ k A &•:. * ' .r.J. .*•1' ;».r - ' «i ' f..
