WASHINGTON "The Birth of a Nation." D. W. Griffith's marvelous spectacle comes to the Washington. February 9-10, -twice dally. After making new, unprecedented and undreamt of - record in practically every first-class theatre In the United States last season in many Cities, it went back to play to as large and often larger audiences than it did during, the first -engagement. It is a fair estimate that one-half of the six million people who have 'Keen this spectacle have seen it more than once. In every place the enthusiasm of the vast crowds has known no bounds. . WASHINGTON Laughter will reign supreme at the Washington theatre on Friday, February 2, when the hilarious comedy, "Twin Beds" will have its second local presentation. Salisbury Field and Margaret Mayo, author of "Baby Mineare responsible for this clever little play, which is guaranteed to make your ribs tickle your sides with InuBhter. and then some, while A. S. Stern and company, the famous New York producers, are responsible for the production. ' ' . WASHINGTON One of the. most effective minor scenes in "The Birth of a Nation" coming to the Washington theatre February 9, 10, .twice daily, shows Miss Elsie Stoneman, daughter of the "Great Commoner" who led cohtrress in Lincoln's time, playing a gfiitar to solace a wounded rebel officer in the Patents' office hospital. - "1 haven't known you long,"' says the

little Confederate Colonel, Ben Cameron," but I have carried you about with me for years and years." He displays a baJf-faded daguerretotype of the girl, a picture she had given Uer brother .and which bad fallen into Ben's hands. ' .. MURRETTE . "The House of Lies," the MoroscoParamount photoplay coming to the Murrette Tuesday, brings forth this problem:. Edna Coleman is the stepdaughter of a society matron who candidly explains that she intends to exploit her daughter's beauty in the marriage market. The marriage market with its shallow veneer of modern dress and modern manners but with an amazing similarity of spirit to the. old "slave market," only perhaps a little competition. .( .......

EXHIBIT WINNING FOWLS

t f , m ( V W m in if Ji . 1 - y

UCB of the tenderly poetic ap

peal of "The Birth of a Natlon" is due to the subtle acting of Miss Lillian Glsh in

the part of Elsie Stoneman, the Northern heroine. Miss Gish is a little creature of the, "golden aureole" blond type, which makes for photographic beauty. She is singularly graceful, and her features never lose their piquancy. Her eyes before the camera are singularly expressive, and her acting conveys sincerity as well as true feminine charm. i Terhaps the most poetical scene of the entire drama is the one in -which bo and Henry Walthall, as her Southfjp, lover, poor oat their hearts to each.

other through the agency of the ancient symbol of Venus, goddess of romance, the dove. Not daring, at this point in their courtship to kiss each other, they lavish their affections alternately on the nesting bird. Another scene in which Miss Gish displays her exquisite charm Is the one- in which

she plays with a kitten with such grace and caressing meaning that the audience invariably experiences a delightful thrill of sympathy. Miss Gish is sharply contrasted in "The Birth of a Nation" with the beautiful brunette Miss Miriam Cooper, who plays the Southern heroine. The

little Northern heroine is of Northern birth, just as Miss -Cooper is a Southerner,' her native State being Ohio. For a time in her early girlhood she and her sister Dorothy, also famous In the moving picture world, lived in Missouri with their mother. Miss Gish, when a mere child, won fame on the stage as a dancer and became a member of the ballet in one of Sarah Bernhardt's productions. She was introduced to D. W. Grlfft ducer of "The Birth of a Nation;"" br Mary Pickford. Mr. Griffith instantly, recognized her talent and rapidly promoted her in picture after picture, until he finally cast her in her present role of the Northern heroine in "The Birth at a Nation." - r '
