The picture at the Theatre today and to-morrow, "A Socisty Scandal," was adapted from Alfred Sutro's play, "The Laughing Lady."" Gloria Swanson has the role of a society beauty who, involved innocently in a com- promising situation with a roller, issued for divorce by her weakling husband. On the stand her hus- band's lawyer, a handsopie, young, and over-zonious attorney, tears her reputation to shreds. Where- upon it becomes the fair divorcee's chief nim in life to humiliate the lawyer in some way for the ruin he has wrought upon her socially, The piquant manner in which she' accomplishes her purpose and the surprising result are pietured in a most engrossing manner.
