Throughout the morning the spell 'the attractiveness of the production, modern woman. hung over her. Being a healthy mor-j , tal and not given to mystic analyses,

Pally was annoyed at its persistence.! She went about her work with extra' 2est. laboring over her "children" with j

mind and bedy. Running into Or. Rolf suddenly and catching the full glance of his earnest eyes, Sally felt herself blush. Nurses in war hospitals are not supposed to blush. Nor are seasoned surgeons with forty urgent cases on their hands. Yet both young persons performed this sternly discountenanced act to their own extreme annoyance. Sally blamed it on the dream. Dr. Rolf blamed it on his anxiety lest Sally was unduly interested in Roger 1 nndis, who wfis now at the door of Shack 3 overseeing the stretcher bearers with a wounded man from his nml ulance. There was no mistaking the message that flashed from Roger's eyes to Sally's.

"I have brought you a desperate case, Little Mother of the Wounded,": was what Roger bald with his lips ! His eyes added "I wish I myself j

were in nis place mat i migm mean something to your heart." With an effort Sally's eyes met Kogor's. The dream was still haunting her with its persistent urge to I.-.now whose was the hidden face UoXs? Roger's? "J will do my best for him," she iiMBwered, turning from the ambulance il river to the shattered man his car ( f mercy had borne.

"The Last Raid of the Zeppelin L-21-" The first news film of the great war in which something really happens will be hown at the Washington on Monday and Tuesday. Germany has used the Zeppelin exclusively for the destruction of life and property having no military value. Americans could never actually realize the havoc, horror and destruction these monsters have caused, without a picturization of these occurences. Heretofore, even ordinary photographs were not available in spite of the tremendous interest the public showed. This interest could be satisfied only by a motion picture visualization, which is now available.

The release by Artcraft cf "The Devil Stone," coming to the Washington next Wednesday and Thursday, marks the sixth Geraldine Farrar production filmed at the tudios of the Lasky company since the famous prima donna entered the field of photoplay, two years ago. "The Devil Stone" is a story of weird fascination which presents Miss Farrar in a modern role, based upon the big theme of Superstition, brought down from ancient folk lore, and in

EILEEN PERCY and FRANKLYN FARNUM

IN.THE, GREAT NEWSPAPER; MYSTERY DRAMA

a -ru c cr rvs rvr v r a rt

. The infinite variety of Mae Marsh has often ben commented upon. The appealing Goldwyn star delights in greeting her admirers as a different girl in her successive photoplays. This is simply borne out in her newest Goldwyn production, ''All Woman," which comes to the Washington theatre Friday and Saturday. In this picture Miss Marsh appears in a part stronger than is usually associated with her delicate, elusive personality. She is Susan Sweeney, a New York factory girl, who inherits a hotel in an Adirondack town. MURRAY. In "Destiny, or the Soul of a Woman," the powerful Metro production which will be seen at the Murray theatre on Tuesday, Emily Stevens,

I the talented star, plays three distinct

periods and phases of a woman's life. First she is seen as the young wife who is happy and contented in her home and her husband's love. Next, when he wrongfully accuses her of deception and casts her out without an explanation, she enters a resort known as the "House of Lost Souls," where she becomes the reigning beauty. Many years elapse and she appears as the penitent and broken old woman who seeks the forgiveness of the church before she dies. In these roles Mi?s Stevens shows an artisthy in the delineation of each distinct character which is marveloas. She enters into the spirit of the diffiult parts as only a nast-m'strT in the art of acting would be capable. Theda Bara, the greatest of vam-

I pires, is ccming back to us in a 1918

version of her best vampire - production "A Fool Thre Was.' This play in it new dressing will be shown at the M-srray iheatr Sjiiday. It was this stirring screen dra.ma that brought Miss Bara to the forefront of screen artists, and it was her sterling acting of the role of Satan's ally that started the "vampire craze" in motion pictures. The story is an intensely human one, and the staging of it is superior to many of the present day productions. The stirring power of it has made it historic. In its new form its compelling interest is heightened. Some say that motion pictures are advancing by leans and bounds. If that be true then "A Fool There Was" -.as ahead of its time. MURRETTE. Franklyn Farnum will 'be seen as an embryonic journalist in his newest Bluebird production made under the direction of Douglas Gerrard and relfased at the Murrette theater on Tuesday, under the title of "The Empty Cab." F. McGraw Willis wrote the story and scenario. "The Empty Cab" concerns a young society man with a rich father, who when remittances fall short, breaks into the newspaper game on his dad's paper. His first assignment is the expose of a gang of notorious counterfeiters, and the adventures he has while gathering data concerning their nefarious activities makes a rattling gcod story with mile-a-minute action. There is a girl in the case, who supplies a wealth of romance, and a big surprise finish that should carry photoplay audiences off their feet. Eileen Percy, formerly leading woman with Doug'as Fairbanks, plays the principal feminine role. One of the sets built for the pro-

j duction is a replica of the editorial

rooms or the Ixs Angeles Examiner, and the interior workings of modern metropolitan journalism are realistically pictured.
