WASHINGTON When Louise Glaum comes to the Washington theater Monday and Tuesday in "The Goddess of Lost Lake," her latest production at the Robert Brunton studios, she will be supported by a cast almost entirely new. W. Lawson Butt, the English actor, plays the lead opposite the star. Hay-ward Mack is the villain and Frank Lannlng is the heroine's half-breed uncle, a strong role. Joseph J. Dowling takes the part of an old prospector and father of the heroine, who is a quarterbreed Indian girl with a college education. Wallace Worsley directed the picture which is an original story by M. Van de Water. Rex Beach's tremendous following in the screen world is certain to hail his "Laughing Bill Hyde" as the greatest of all Rex Beach-Goldwyn Pictures. It has for Its features player Will Rogers, the famous wit and lariat thrower of the "Follies." His first performance on the screen will delight this unique performer's thousands of local admirers when "Laughing Bill Hyde" is presented at the Washington theater beginning Wednesday. The Interesting and unusual story of "The Sea Waif," the new World Picture, ctarring Louise Huff, was penned by Lieutenant Howard Irving Young, of the American Expeditionary Forces, during the time that he was off duty in the trenches. Written, as It was, under the stress of exciting times and away from homo. It is not
able for its thrills, its sentiment and the splendid delineation of its characters. It is not a war story, however. It Is a story of the sea and of the water-front, and it deals with the experiences of Nancy Potter, the fosterdaughter of a Maine fisherman who is the head of a band of thieves. The Washington theater has secured this picture, and will show it on Sunday only. Walter Edwards, who directed Constance Talmadge in her latest Select Picture, "Sauce for the Goose," searched long and hard for a perfectly built woman to take tha part of the Venus in the scene where the statue suddenly become alive. First he tried
to get a girl who looked like Venus de
Milo. but although he had applicants by the dozen nary a Venus presented herself. Then he changed the idea and instead of hunting for a girl to resemble this one Venus, he became more general in his demands and decided that a perfectly formed girl who resembled and statue would have to do. In "Sauce for the Goose" Constance Talmadge Is the personification of the pretty American girl, fun-loving and ever-smiling and in this as in all her screen work she puts over the feeling of spontaneous happy-go-lucklness so well that you can almost hear her laugh come rippling oft the silver sheet. "Sauce for the Goose" is the attraction at the Washington theater on Friday-and Saturday. MURRETTE George McDanlel is a screen villain who has the ability to make himself iordially disliked by every spectator which is the true test of screen villainy. In "The Man From Funeral Range," which . will be shown at the Murrettc theatre today he has a par-
William Farnum, the internationally famous William Fox star, will be the attraction at the Murrette Theatre next Sunday and Monday. Mr. Farnum's latest de luxe production, "For
Fredom," while It touches on the great
war. Is based on the miscarrlge of Justice and the right of a convict to a
"square deal."
The story is of a man falsely ac
cused and imprisoned who at the outbreak of the war. between the United States and Germany wins parole on his plea that he be permitted to fight for his country. Charles Clary who plays the part
of Baron Von Strohm In "The Strange
Woman." In which Gladys Brockwell is the star, has an easy part in the picture. He begins with a gay birthday party in his mansion in Paris. All he has to do after that is to appear
badly Intoxicated, fall off a fifteen-foot
balcony and die while his many guests look on. "It certainly was a strenuous time while it lasted," said Mr. Clary. At the Murrette Wednesday, and the Murray Thursday. , A dozen problems in which every woman is vitally interested are pictured, lived through and answered in the most powerful marriage play of the day. "Why I Would Not Marry." a William Fox morality production, which will be shown at the Murrette theatre next Thursday, Friday and Saturday. How a woman can avoid matrimonial pitfalls, delve into the future of life, select the right man to make her married life ideally happy, master the laws of beauty and good health all these problems are solved, logically and entertainingly In this startling photodrama. MURRAY. Doris Kenyon, who appears at the Murray theater today in Louis Joseph Vance's delightful love story of the screen, "The Inn of the Blue Moon," is one of the youngest American film stars who have risen to undisputed success . She was a successful singer and dramatic artist before she went into the pictures. Her versatility and talent are interestingly expressed in the dual role she is called upon to assume in the photoplay.
Con you Imagine a pretty little girl growing up with a gang of safe-crackers and coming through It all unsoared Can you Imagine her alighting from a freight train In a small, gossipy town In boy's clothes and within a few months becoming the belle of the village? This Is what Muggsy Mulane does In Cottonville, the scene of "DangerGo Slow," an unusually clever photodrama in which Mae Murray wins greater laurels as Muggsy. "Danger Go Slow." Mae Murray's latest production, Is to be shown Monday at the Murray theater. Beautiful little Llla Lee certainly has her hands full in "Such a Little Pirate," the second Paramount Picture in which she appears at the Murray theater Friday and Saturday. Not only does she play a difficult part well, bringing out all the charm of the
character of Patricia Wolf, whom she impersonates in the story, hut she also commands a. ship, leads an attack against men who are about to kill her grandfather, and she plays quite a number of scenes with Slnbad, a giant and fierce looking ourang-outang, who has an Important part in the picture.
throughout All the characters are extremely polite and charming folks, who play golf at. the Country Club, and live in smart houses. The wgjjpen don't smoke and the men don't swear. Nobody is "unfaithful," and most of them are young folks Just falling in love in the nice, normal way. To Interpret "The Boomerang," David Belasco is credited with having assembled a cast of players whose all-round excellence In the roles they assume, can scarcely be rivaled.
Charming Love Story Is Told in "The Boomerang" The Murray Is to be favored with a Belasco attraction when David Belasco will bring here on next Monday, the Belasco theater, New York, success, "The Boomerang." This comedy by Winchell Smith and Victor Mapes, has enjoyed tremendous popularity and comes to the Murray with the samo production. It is seldom that a play is received with such unanimity of approval by both the public and the critics as has greeted the production of "The Boomerang." "The Boomerang" is said to be bright and gay in spirit and restores to the stage the wholesome side of
our more or less leisured American life. Its story concerns a physician' who undertakes to cure a young! friend of lovesickness. As an aid he calls in a pretty nurse, In order to ; make the girl in the case jealous, j The boomerang is found in the fact
that the nurse proceeds to make the j doctor jealous, thereby giving him a i
dose of his own medicine. It is clean
Arabian Nights Tele RnnsThrough"ChinChin' Coming to the Murray on Tuesday, Jan. 7, is Charles Dillingham's "Chin Chin", the musical comedy which is one of those tales of love and wishing, common to the Arabian Nights. All impossibilities are crowded into it. jumbled together like the figures in a dream and in the end it resolves itself into a vehicle for the display of the clever grotesqueries of the two clever "turn" artists, Walter Wills and Roy Binder. Mr. Wills, whose body seems made of rubber, and whose facial expressions change as quickly as the wheel oMortune, gave us Chin Hon HI, Paderewski, Mile. Falloffski, a Gendarme and a centriloquist, transformations accompanied by such curious tricks and poses, such tumbling, dancing, imitating, such a running Are of Jokes and fun-making that the audience fairly screamed with laughter. Mr. Binder gives us in rapid succession Chin Hop Lo, the Widow, a Coolie and the Ring Master, lightning changes of mood, manner and get-up that provoke the audience to mirth. No more diverting and entertaining "comics'have come our way for many seasons. George Usher makes an agreeable and picturesque Alladin. Mina Davenport is a lovely and attractive figure as the Goddess of the Lamp. Lorraine Lester is graceful
and pretty as Violet Bond. Bertha
Holly Is a robust Widow Twanky andj
josepn ttomson is a portly and Imposing Abanazar. The favorite songs are "The Chinese Honeymoon," "Good-bye Girls, I'm Through," "Violet", "The Gray Dove", and "Love Moon". The most recalled
dance and song numbers are the "Teddy Bear Dance", (without words) "Go Gar Slg Gong-Jue". "Temple Bells", "The - Rag of Rags", and "BaUy Moony". The clever Saxophone Sextette by
Tom Brown's Clown Band is one of the most amusing and delightful hits of the play. The company is conceded to be the largest organization presenting a musical comedy on the road today, there are girls and glrla and girls.
CUTfCURA HEALS

"Baby had a rash on his head and he scratched so that it came on
his face. It was scaly and became inflamed and awfully sore. He was terribly cross, and it kept him awake. Finally bis hair became very thin. "I sent for a sample of Cuticura. I afterwards
