WASHINGTON The widely read story of the Ozarks has been fllmatlzed under the direc tion of Harold Bell Wright, its au thor. As a novel this story has at

tained a popularity which has not been equalled by any other book In a decade. As a play the success of r this work was phenomenal and as a

picturization under the. direction of Mr. W right the story bids fair to mark an epoch in the art of the silent drama. The pictures have been taken in the heart of the Ozark mountains and in California. Mr. Wright and his associates have been engaged for months in this great work. No expense has been spared. No detail overlooked. The countless millions who are familiar with Mr. Wright's style and descriptive ability; those who understand in even a limited way the scopeless possibilities of the motion picture camera can readily realize that, the great word-pictures of this author should in the world of reel pictures indeed be works of art. The exhibit is made in ten reels with incidental music written and selected specially. Coming to the Washington Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 20, 21 and 22. Two performances daily, matinee at 2:15 and night, 8:15. Seats reserved for the night performance only. Accorded an enviable spot in the screen sun by his admirable performance in "Oh, Johnny!" Louis Bennison with his lovable, all-conquering breezy Western personality, gives even more of his endless store of mirth-providing and thrill-assuring expedients in "Sandy Burke of the U-Bar-U," second in the smiling star's series of Betzwood pictures distributed by Goldwyn. The new production is alive with opportunity for Louis' Bennlson, the cowpuncher, the comedian, the noted portrayer of roles that tug at the ' heartstrings as readily as they evoke hearty outbursts of laughter. In short, the actor, who was hailed several seasons ago as the "find" of ytars through Ms brilliant work in his stage triumph "Johnny Get Your Gun," undoubtedly has the most powerful role of his career In "Sandy Burke of the U-Bar-V." Once more the Betzwood Film company, sponsor for all Bennison productions, has seen to it that the unusual types created for the Western star's second starring vehicle art given life-like characterization by screen players of recognized ability. Goldwyn confidently predicts that Louis Bennlson will captivate anew in "Sandy Burke of the U-Bar-U." which comes to the Washington theatre for today only. MURRAY. "Three Faces East" comes to the Murray theatre March 19. Motion picture stars are reported receiving some lofty salaries. Be they real or fabulous, it is becoming evident these screen favorites are to have no monoply in separating photo-play producers from the bulk of their invested or earned capital. The scenarios writer, it appears, is coming into his own. There are about half a dozen makers of original scripts, free lances, , most of whom are reported to be collecting from $25,000 to $30,000 a year each from products of their own pens. Among these are said to be Francis Marion, Anita Loos, Maibelle Heikes Justice, C. Gardiner Sullivan, and last, but by no mans least, Anthony Paul Kelly, probably the most prolific of

them all. Mr. Kelly, by the way, is 1 the author of one of the most successful spoken dramas of the war, "Three Faces East," which had its premiere in this city. .There is a. ptory concerning Mr. Kelly and his satteen plays and its truth is vouched for on good authority that indicates the correctness of the statement relative to large incomes of top-notch scenairo writers. This film-play maker has stated over his own signature that he hardly ever spends more than a week on a manuscrip for screen production. ' The life of a soldier is tempered with smart femininity in the delightful English comedy, "Billeted," which Margaret Anglin and her original New York company will present here on Saturday, March 22, at the Murray theatre. This delightful plaj;, which comes here after extended " engage-

JOST LOOK DAUHTER HAs PICKED OUT THE 41RL HERE TO TM.K menta la New York and Chicago, teaches a lesson which all women would like an excuse to follow, namely, that extravagance is more economical than economy. That is the paradoxical epigram spoken by Miss AngHn as the charming hostess in the comedy. Her argument is that if she had not already had a wonderful collection of frocks-how could she have managed In war time. "Blllited" is one of the few big comedy successes of many seasons, tersely expressed in the New York World as "a delightful play, delightfully acted," The "two-gun" man of the bad, bad west must take a tack seat, because the "three-gun" man has marie his appearance. In the old shooting days any man, outlaw or otherwise, who could operate two six-shooters simultaneously was regarded with considerable respect, and he lived longer than the fellow who could shoot accurately only with one hand. Tom Mix, the William Fox film star, was a two-gun man when he was a TexaB ranger and cowboy, and his ability to shoot with both hands got him out of some very tight holes. It was this ability, too, which helped him to wipe out the Shonts gang of outlaws on the Pecos river in New Mexico a few years ago. Now Mix, who for some time has been engaged In thrilling motion picture audiences by his daring horsemanship and athletic feats, has developed into a "tnree-gun" man. In "Hell Roarin Reform," a William Fox production, which will be presented at the Murray theatre Thursday, Mix routs a band of outlaws by operating two six shooters and a rifle simultaneously. This is the first time, it is declared, that this remarkable feat has been accomplished. WITH THOSE IN ARMY AND NAVY This column, containing news of Richmond and Wayne county sot dlers and sailors,, will appear daily In the Palladium. Contribution will be welcomed. William Harrison of a motor mechanics' corps has arrived in New York from overseas. Peter Sands of Cambridge City, has his honorable discharge and has arrived at his home.

Chick cholera or white diarrhoea is the trouble. The U. S. Government states that over half the chicks hatched die from this cause. An Avicol tablet, placed in the drinking water, will positively 6ave your little chicks from all such diseases. Inside of 48 hours the sick ones will be as lively as crickets. Avicol will keep them healthy and make them grow and develop more rapidly. Mrs. Vannie Thackery, R. F. D. 3, St Paris, O., writes: "I had 90 chicks and they all died but 32. Then I commenced on Avicol and haven't lost any since. They have grown wonderfully." It costs nothing to try Avicol. If you don't find that it prevents and promptly cures white diarrhoea and all other bowel diseases of poultry, tell us and your money will be refunded by return mail. Avicol is sold by most druggists and poultry remedy dealers, or you can send 23c or 50c today for a package by mall postpaid. Burrell-Dugger Co., 168 Columbia Bldg., Indianapolis, Ind. Adv.
