On The Screen

LYRIC Bluebird photoplay have developed a series of Rupert Julian, creatioi.a that promise to mean more to devotees of the screen than any series of Jramas that have yet been presented. "A Kentucky Cinderellla" was th? flrt of the issue and "Mother O Mine" followed. In both these dramas, as in all Rupert Julian Bluebirds, dainty Uuth Clifford was the captivating star Now comes Miss Clifford to the Lyric Theatre on December 7 10 present "The Desire of the Moth," u romance of the far West in days when rugged men made quick decisions and every woman's honor was as precious In their eyes as the mother who gave them birth. Georcft Walsh made a distinct hit

this afternoon at the Washington ! Theatre, where he was shown in Will-!

lam Fox's latest comedy-drama. "This is the Life," Of course. "Smiling George." always makes a "hit." but he is particularly pleasing in this picture which has the added merit of having been directed by George's brother, R, A. Walsh, who made "The Honor System," "The Comiueror." "The Innocent Sinner," and "Betrayed." The picture will remain at the Washington for tonight and Saturday.
