. MURRETTE

At the Murrette theatre Sunday, the

feature will be the Pamount photo-j play, "Love Me," starring winsome Dorothy Dalton. That "Lov Me" was! written by C. Gardner Sullivan and dlrected by R. William Neill under the personal supervision of Thomas H. Ince, himself, speaks loudly for its success, and the excellent cast, including William Conklin. Jack Holt, Dorcas Mathews, Melbourne MacDowell,. Elinor Hancock and Robert McKim. adds the last word. The story is a society drama with a new and interesting point of view of an unconventional Western girl who earns the love and respect of her husband's exclusive and wealthy family. Other items on the bill at the Murray theatre will be the Allies Official War Review. Here are some interesting and little known facts about Pearl White, the beautiful and daring motion picture star, who apprs Jn Pathe's new continued photoplay, "The House of Hate" a story of mystery and thrills, the second chapter of which comes to the Murrette theatre Tuesday. She was born in the Ozark Mountains and got her start on the stage by attracting a traveling showman's attention, when she recited "Hamlet's .Soliloquy." Her first part on the stage was as Little Eva in "Uncle Tom's Cabin." She made her first screen appearance in western pictures and her-popularity so soon showed itself that the was selected as the heroine of "The Perils of Pauline." She was recently voted the most popular actress In America by both Army and Navy Units of the American fighters in France 'and the present is therefore the psychological time for

her reappearance, following her suc-j cess in "The Fatal Ring.' J In "The Kid Is Clever," at the Mur- j rette Wednesday and Thursday, George Walsh passes under the supervision of a director new to the Fox company. Paul Powell, former newspaper man, past, present and future good fellow, has added his genius to the group of sterling directors who hold the fate of William Fox productions in their hands. That Mr. Powell can rank with the bst of them is proved by the excellence of his initial picture. Paul Powell was born in Chicago. He bgan his career as reporter on the Tribune of that city. When he found opportunity to capture a good place on a Los Angeles dally, he hied westward,' and .there he has stayed ever Pince. MURRAY Stephen Orry. the vagabond In Hall Coine's novel. "The Bondman," at the Murray Sunday and Monday, which has been produced in photoplay form hy William Fox, is present at the Festival of the Mount of Laws, Iceland's greatest holiday. The day is devoted to games, sports afid other amusements In which hundreds of persons participate. Patriksen. winner of the wrestling championship, challenges the large-limbed, care-free Stephen. Stephen bests Patriksen, who is obliged to give up the belt, won but a few minutes before. Rachel, daughter of the Governor of Iceland, betrothed to the Danish Minister, falls in love with Stephen. They are married after Rachel has been disowned by her father. ' ; Three thousand men and women, clad in picturesque costumes, took part in the scenes of the Festival of the Mount of Laws. William Farnum, long a favorite of the legitimate stage, is starred in the production. Viola Dana nearly-sprained her right wrist while acting in thrilling scenes for "The Only Road." a Metro All-Star Series picture which will be shown at the Murray theatre Tuesday. It all happened in the interest of her art; in becoming a dead shot with a pistol, a mighty big six-shooter, of the approved Western type. To develop

skill and quickness on the trigger Miss Dana made several trips to the Imperial Valley, where she occupied her spare time shooting at jack rabbits and coyotes, with her pearl-handled "22." But, when she came to do her shooting scene she was handed a "44" and she shot it .several times. Hence the lame wrist. Adolph Zukor, president of the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation, producing company for Paramount pictures, recently took a trip from New York City to Lake George, New York, with the express purpose of watching the making of Pauline Frederick's newest Paramount picture, "The Hungry Heart.' from the novel by David Graham Phillips. What was his amazement at arriving on location, to find the place quiet and deserted. Sounds of revelry and mirth at the shore of the lake drew him that way and he discovered Director Vignola. who had been christened "The Submarine," in the act of upsetting Willard Mack, the famous novelist and playwright, who was working nearby at the time, in the water. Pauline Frederick herself sat looking on and encouraging both combatants impartially, wearing a very fetching bathing suit. "The Hungry Heart." which was one rf the "six best sellers" the year it was published by Mr. Phillips, bids fnlr to be an extremely popular photoplay. In It Miss Frederick wears many of her elaborate gowns, as she is supposed to be a young bride recently returned from honeymooning with a marvelous trouseau. "The Hungry Heart" will appear on Wednesday and Thursday at the Murray theatre. LYRIC "Station Content" contains more than one element of interest. There is the longing of Kitty, played by Gloria Swanson, for freedom from the loneliness of her isolated existence with her husband. Jim Manning, in an out-of-the-way lank town. There is the love that the rich railroad president, Morton, has for her. The theatrical venture of Kitty is still another angle. And the. prevention of the railroad wreck still another At the Lyric today.

and this scpne Is one of the most mas-1 sive and convincing ever staged fori

motion pictures. The story deals with the love of a girl for a political candidate and of the mess that she unwittingly gets him into. It also shows the manner in which she gets him out of this trouble by making a remarkable speech before the entire convention. "The Heart of a Girl" will e the attraction on Sunday at the Washington theater and this theater takes pleasure in highly recommending this production to every photoplay fan. "The Heart of a Girl' 'is a splendid picture wholesome, pleasing, interesting. You'll enjoy it.

In the cast of "The Biggest Show on Karth." Enid Bennett's forthcoming Paramount picture from the Thomas H. Ince studios, directed by Jerome Storm and written by Florence Vincent, is Melbourne MacDowell, husband of the late Fanny Davenport and one of the old school of heavy tragedians. "The Biggest Show on Earth" will be presented at the Washington theater next Monday and Tuesday. Intense interest In the presentation is manifested in all quarters. "Big Bill' Hart's coming to town next week! Not a person, of course, but in his latest Thomas H. Ince photoplay, "The Silent Man," which has Just been made for Artcraft. and which will be sen at the Washington theater on Wednesday and Thursday. The advent of a new Hart picture

is very much the same as the visit of a three-ringed circus to any communi

ty. It is an event of prime importance. It catches the attention of every man, woman and child, for it means an entertainment totally unlike ttm"- which is provided by any other star of the film world. In "The Silent Man" Hart has the

support of a company that includes such well-known players as Vila Vale, Robert McKim, J. P. Lockney, Harold Goodwin. Geroge P. Nichols, Gertrude Claire, Milton Ross and Doreas Matthews. '

Curtailment in Production makes Quality the Only Economy at Present

WASHINGTON.' "The Heart of a Girl" is the title of the new World Picture and It presents Barbara Castleton and Irving Cummlngs as the stars. This striking new photoplay has a thrilling political convention scene as tlio climax

Today war-time conditions make dependability the first essential of your automobile. It is not a question of convenience but necessity. ' The business man speeding up production of war materials the farmer trying to make two bushels grow where one grew before the women giving their time day in and day out to war activities would find their efforts suddenly cut in two without their automobiles. And yet who knows where curtailment in automobile production is going to stop? Who knows how long (he steady drain of expert mechanics to government service must continue? One thing is sure. You must use your automobile for a greater number of years. You must exact harder service from it. So you must have quality. You can no longer rely on the pleasant practice of driving your car a short time and then exchanging it for a new one. Here then is the big reason for ordering your Super-Six and ordering it now.

It almost seems as if Hudson engineers built three years ago with the present situation in mind. In the wonderful Super-Six motor they put power and endurance beyond anything previously attained. Then they proved the Super-Six by the most grinding series of tests to which an automobile had ever been subjected race track mountain climbs cross continent tours the daily experience of thousands of motorists. The Super-Six is the car which will "carry on" no matter how long you must drive it. It makes you more independent as far as the scarcity of service mechanics is concerned. If you want a Super-Six, make sure of it. Order it now. The demand at present and for sometime past has been so insistent that, even with exceptionally high prices offered for used Super-Sixes, there are not enough Hudsons to go around. It is only the part of wisdom to anticipate your needs even a year distant.

There are ten different Hudson models in the 1918 series all on the Super-Six chassis-. From the four passenger phaeton to the touring limousine the season's only new car you can find the type of car you wish. ' We' will appreciate an opportunity to show you the Hudson line.

hudsontt

In every appointment, Hudson bodies are worthy of the Super-Six chassis. It is impossible to even enumerate some of the detailed refinements here. To really appreciate them you must examine them personally. We invite you to call at your earliest convenience.
