tional photodrat'ua. “Moral Suicide,”
which has scored in New York and
will be seen at the Regent Theatre
today. _
As Fay Hope. the siren who causes
the “moral suicide.” of Richard Cov-
ingion. she gives a remarkably effec-
tive portrayal of a character of the
vampire type. Miss Baird is a Chicago
girl who won fame on the stage be-
fore appearing on the screen. She
starred in many dramatic productions
during her five years' experience on
the stage. Perhaps her best remem‘
bored appearances were in “The Mum-
my and the Humming Bird." and in
“The Gentleman from Mississippi.”
Tli'é story has to do with a rich
widower who has a grown son and
daughter. He becomes infatuated with
a wily (and beautiful, of flourse) ad-
ventures. His daughter warns him
that he is on the brink of “moral. sui-
cide,’ but he scorns her protests. Then
a terrible tragedy enters into the fam-
ily life; there is a bitter crisis—and
the father recovers his sanity and
rushes from the side of the woman
who has bewitched him, but only after‘
his fortune is gone.
