Wlllard Mack. Chosen carefully to present him to his admirers in a new guise, there BeemB little doubt that he will surprise and please them in the story of a scion of wealth who quarrels with his. father and starts out to see the world. It is not from the window of a parlor car that Dick Latham does this, but from the "blind baggage" of a freight train In company with a crowd of hoboes. In a far Western town his real adventures begin, however, the first of which is when the office of sheriff 's thrust upon him by a scheming politician who plans to use Dick as a tool to mask his own nefarious doings. The actions of the tenderfoot sheriff constitute the most amusing moments of "Go West, Young Man." When Charlie Murray, Eva Thatcher, Bert Roach and Marie Prevost are featured in a Paramount-Mack Sennett comedy you may be sure there is something doing every minute. This Is especially the case in the latest release of this famous producing linn, "Never Too Old," which will be shown at the Washington theatre next Wednesday and Thursday. This is a whirlwind comedy filled to the brim with laughs. The action takes place in and about a delicatessen store the two proprietors of which get into trouble when they pay more attention to a pretty manicurist than they do to their business. When the
wives of the two Lotharios get into action, the unhappy husbands have

;. Some blase bachelors and chronic married men claim that no woman knows what she does want; that when she gets what she wants, she doesn't want it any more. L " These Bame hypochondriacs blatantly assert that all a woman wants besides the earth, sun, moon, stars, the tnllky-way, and all contained therein, is her own way, and then she gets mad at herself because she has nobody to argue the question with. - It is easily understood by intelligent men that If a woman has a nice home, plenty of beautiful clothes, the right to draw ad libitum on her husband's bank account, the inalienable privilege of shaking down his trousers every night, to entertain "mother" for indefinite periods, a couple of automobiles, a few diamonds, cats and canaries, suffrage and prohibition, cold

At the Washington Monday and Tuesday. ' 'Suppose you met and fell in love with a peach of a girl a pretty, charming, dear girl who was everything you had pictured a girl ought to be. And suppose you found that all the evidence indicated that this girl was a crook what would you do? This Is the situation that Charles Hadwln finds himself up against in "Crook of Dreams," the new World Picture starring Louise Huff which will be shown at the Washington theatre tomorrow. What did he do about it?
Well, the things that he did and
is one laugh every ten seconds in
this highly enjoyable comedy. Once again Select Pictures offers us that big winning combination Big "Mite" Lewis in a big picture of the Northwest. By a big picture we mean a picture that has a big plot big star big actors big setting big di
rection and big photography all of which "Children of Banishment," the Mitchell Lewis second Select Picture, contains. The plot of this pic ture is a thrilling one one that will hold you to the end. It Is the story of a man of the Northwest a man with a strict moral code and a big heart. He wins out In two of the biggest and most important fights In life. One is to make a financial success of life, and the other is to win the love of a woman. He loves the wife of another man. To make it harder, she returns his love. But he Is too big a man to cheat. He plays the game on the level every time. He
finally sacrifices his all for the happiness of the woman he loves. "Children of Banishment" was filmed in the real Northwest country, and the picture certainly shows it. Some of the most beautiful scenes imaginable are shown, and the entire working procedure of a lumbering camp Is demonstrated. The lofty peaks of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, where the picture was filmed, form the background throughout. Norval MacGregor wrote the scenario and directed the picture. "Children of Banishment" can be seen Friday and Saturday at the Washington theatre. MURRAY Admirers of Lillian Walker will see the dimpled star at the Murray theatre in a role which, though entirely new to her, admirably suits her tal

Miss Walker receives the support of such other well known players as Herbert Prior, Alene Hale, Stanley Orr, ' Andrew Arbuckle and Lydia Knott; "Love Hunger" was directed by William P. 8. Earle, who. with Arthur Edwin Krows, adapted the story from John Breckenridge Ellis famous novsl, "Fran."
Hallie Ermine Rives, whose novel, "The Long Lane's Turning," has been dramatized for the screen for Henry B. Walthall, is one of the most popular and sensational writers of the day. Miss Rives was born in Christian County, Kentucky, in 1878, and is a cousin of the equally well known author, Amelie Rives who married Prince Troubetzkoy after her divorce from John Armstrong Chanler, the eccentric New York millionaire. Hallie Ermine Rives is a most prolific writer, her novels numbering over twenty, all of which have had wide circulation. Among the best known of her works are "A Furnace of Earth" "SmoRing Flax," "Hearts Courageous" Satan v Sanderson," "The Valiants of Virginia," and "The Long Lane's Turning," the last named being published in 1917 by Dodd, Mead & Co. "The Long Lane's Turning" achieved remarkable popularity and is listed among the best sellers of the day. It3 dramatic possibilities appealed so strongly to Mr. Walthall that he requested a dramatization for his use. The picture Is released by Exhibitors Mutual. At the Murray Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

will visit the Palace theatre. Supported by Arline Pretty, the popular screen actres3 and an equally efficient cast Including Arnold Lucy, Helen Greene, Homer Hunt, Walter Walker, Albert Parker, "Bull" Montana and others of similar popularity "Doug" is given capable assistance in the presentation of the plot, which displays a satire of unusual humor. John Emerson, the director of various Fairbanks hits, has turned out one of the triumphs of his career In this latest subject by Anita Loos and advance reports indicate that "In Again Out Again" will add many new admirers to "Doug's" long list of friends, not only because of its typical Fairbanks theme, but for the reason that its appeal is probably of wider scope than anything in which he has yet appeared.
MURRETTE. The story of "Under the Top," the new Artcraft picture in which Fred Stone ,the famous musical comedy star, Is to appear at the Murrette theater next Sunday, is said to be the story of Mr. Stone's early life. The famous comedian's early yearnings for circus life led him to run away from home and take up circus work. The love interest of the picture is well sustained throughout. Guy Oliver, who plays Robbins, the comic servant in "The Dub." Wallace Reid'3 new Paramount picture, which is on view at the Murette theater Friday and Saturday, used to play leads. Now he is known as one of the best character men in the pictures and his work in recent Paramount and Artcraft pictures has placed him among the foremost exponents of his art.
Peggy Hyland, the William Fox star, will be Ben at the Murrette theater in a photoplay called "The Girl with no Rrgrets." Manager Holland declares that this picture is the best of Miss Hyland's list. The Manager's judgment is to be respected, not only as to Miss Hyland, but as to all motion screen productions. This picture will appear Wednesday. and Thursday.
The difficulty often experienced in translating a great literary work to the screen, was experienced by Director R. Butler Clonebaugh, when he filmed Lila Lee's new Paramount photoplay. ' The Secret Garden," which Is to bo shown at the Murrette theater

with precisely the garden required. The place was rank with weeds, and in this state it was photographed. Three operations were required, but when the work was completed it was perfect from the standpoint of direction and photography. Miss Lee is well supported. Dick Rosson playing opposite to her.
PALACE Sunday the Palace theatre will present America's most popular male star of the screen, "Doug" -Fairbanks In his initial Artcraft picture, produced by his own company, "In Again Out Again."
