White slaving is not an easy sub

point and yet the shameful traffic
in girlhood is one of the nrbst" se

with. V --- ;
In presenting the "Red Ki
mona" to the public Mrs. Wallace
Reid has placed the blame where
it most frequently belongs -on the
Igndrance and trust of the Inno
cent victim rather than . at the
door of youthful delinquency -
and makes her picture .a lesson
perhaps, a warning certainly, but
never a preachment unless her pfc
turization of a certain - class of
publicity hungry idle rich could be
considered in the light of a ser
mon against insincerity. ,
The "Red. Kimona" wa lifted
almost in its entirety from the rec

court and the story of Gabrielle.
"Gabrielle" of the VRed Kimona

This is an. exceptionally attrac

a Russian prince and his sister
who are forced to flee from Russia
during the revolution and - seek
asylum in America. The prince

man of -great wealth, while the
princess finds employment at
coaching the oil millionaire in
good manners so that he may mar

brother secretly loves but of whose
attachment the princess has no
knowledge. This bring sabout
humorous and dramatic complica
