WASHINGTON. Carlyle Blackwell and Evelyn Greeley, the famous World-Pictures stars, have splendid roles in the new World Picture. "Love in a Hury," which will be shown on Sunday only at the Washington theater. The picture has been filmed from a story called "A Huge, Black One-Eyed Man," which ran as a serial in the Saturday Evening Post and made a big impression in that magazine. The picture has been given a splendid setting, and the exterior scenes are notable for their beauty and interest. Director Dell Henderson picked out some great beauty spots for these exteriors, and they add greatly to the interest and pleasing character of the story. Mr. Blackwell appears in this picture in the role of Charles Conant. Miss Greeley is seen in the role of Lady Joan Templar. Others in the cast include George MacQuarrie, Isabel OT.ladigan, Kid Broad, Albert Hart and others. Magnetic, beautiful and charming as ever la Madge Kennedy in her newest Goldwyn Picture, "Day Dreams," written for her by Cosmo Hamilton. The star of "The Kingdom of Youth and "A Perfect Lady," productions that

have enthralled picture enthusiasts in every part of tho country, has given even more of her wondrous self and her unerring sense of comedy in the plcturization of the brilliant Cosmo Hamilton story. Madgo Kennedy's Joyous mood is given full expression in "Day DreamtJ." Never has the delightful artiste, with whom success has become a habit, been seen in a more lovable role than as Primrose. It held an appeal greater than any character f ho had previously been asked to portray and tho enthusiasm with which the entered work on the production prompted Goldwyn to announce that "Day Di earns" is certain to be the most reclaimed of all Madge Kennedy productions. That it will be none of her world of admirers will deny. Madge Kennedy has a store of surprises in "Day Dreams" that aro certain to delight the most exacting photoplay adherent

when Goldwyn presents this brilliant comedy drama at the Washington theater beginning Wednesday.

"Tho Lion nnd tho Mouse" the Vitagraph super-production, produced under the personal supervision of Albert E. Smith. Vitagraph's president, presents Alice Joyce in what promises to be another history-making role. The Dlcturo is adapted from the famous ttage success of the same name, written by the late Charles Klein, which created a sensation on Broadway several seasons ago and which today is running strong in stock houses all over the country. It is a thoroughly worth-while story, and, as put out by Vitagraph, under the direction of Tom Terriss, easily ranks among the most impelling and artistic photo-dramas in many a day. Miss Joyce, as might be expected, is beautiful, appealing and at all times convincing as the clever little Mouse who brings to his knees the financial Lion of the world and saves

her father from disgrace and her sweetheart to herself. She is naturalness personified in a play that is as human as it is powerfully dramatic, and her characterization of the role of Shirley Ror.smore easily takes place among her highest screen triumphs. She is supported by a well-balanced cast of exceptional merit, including Conrad Nagel, Anders Randolf, Henry Hallam, T. W. Carlton, Mona Kingsley, Jane Jennings. W. H. Burton, Templer Saxe, and Mary Carr. "The Lion and the Mouse" will be seen in the Washington Theater on Monday and Tuesday. Norma Talmadge will be seen at the Washington theater on Friday and Saturday, in her latest Select Picture "The Heart of Wetona," in which she is pre3ented in the role of a half Indian girl, by Joseph M. Schenck. The story is by George Scarborough. It was directed by Sidney A. Franklin. Wetona, the daughter of Quannah, chief of a tribe of the Comanches, is chosan to act as vestal virgin at a Corn Dance to be given in connection with some ancient rites that the tribe is contemplating holding. She refuses to accept the offer, saying that she is not fit to bring food to the Holy Spirit. She tells her father that no girl that has loved the way she has is worthy of nuch an honor. Her father is

amazed. For the first time he realizes tat his daughter is not tho kind of a girl she ought to be. Wetona's mother was a white woman and in accordance with her dying wish Wetona

has been brought up as a wnue gin. She tells her father that her lover is a white man but will not tell him his name. Quannah decides to find out who he Is and then kill him. Wetona goes to John Hardin, agent of the reservation, to beg him to 6ave the life of. her lover.

While they are talking, Quannah eners and thinks that Hardin is his daughter's lover. Hardin, who really

loves Wetona, but has never told her

so, decides to marry ner m oraer 10 save her. Later it is learned that Anthony Wells is the man that wronged Wetona. Wetona has since learned what kind of a man Ton really is and with her father's forgiveness and Hardin's love she Is again made happy. MURRAY. Douglas MacLean is again tho leading man for dainty Enid Bennett in "Happy Though Maried," her latest Paramount picture from the Thomas H. Ince ' studio which will be shown at the Murray theater next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Mr. MacLean combines the qualities of personal attractiveness and good acting with youth and good looks. He is, therefore, an ideal juvenile and ideally suited to play opposite Miss Bennett. He has appeared with her in several pictures and also has been seen

to advantage in "The Hun Within" and "Johanna Enlists," both Artcraft films, tho latter a Mary Pickford production. In this new picture he is cast as a young chap who is striving to wrest a fortune from a mine in South America. His love for Milly Lee (Miss Bennett) leads to marriage and a series of unfortunate situations which however come out as one would MURRETTE. No matter how weak a man's character or how mean he is, one can be reasonably assured that some day, sooner or later, the strong and good traits within him are going to overwhelm the evil. This is a strong point clearly conveyed by Wallace Keid in his portrayal of Larry Young in his latest Paramount photoplay, "Alias, 'Mike Moran." which will be shown at the Murrette theatre today. Larry Young is a man who turns yellow when he is drafted and bribes another man to take his place. Mike

Moran, who strikingly resembleB Larry, assumes Young's name and fights in nis stead, later dying a hero's death and glorifying Young's name. Young realizes what a sneak and a weakling he has been, and pulling himself together he joins the Canadian forces and is soon in the thick of the fight, and wounded. His sweetheart flnds him in a hospital and he satisfl33 his conscience by confessing all to her. In the production of Billio Burke's latest Paramount photoplay, "Good Gracious, Annabelle!" which will be presented at the Murrette theater next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, many stage sets of unusual Bplendor have been provided by George Melford, tho director, all of which contribute to make this picture production one of the most notable in which Miss Burke has been seen since sho became a motion picture star. Several of the scenes were photographed in Miss Burke's own home at Hasting-on-the-Hudson, in which Miss Burke's private library, containing hundreds of volumes, her real cut glass, silver and gold ornaments, and the other rich contents of her apartment, are shown with admirable effect. The story of "Good Gracious, Annabelle!" narrates the adventures of a young girl whose life is linked by fate with that of hermit miner who steps from poverty to riches over night. It is one of great attractiveness and affords Miss Burke an unexampled opportunity for the display of her talent as a comedienne. The story was written by Clare Kummer, author of a play of the same name, which created a sensation in New York during the theatrical season of 1917-18. Herbert Rawlinson is her leading man.

Wayne Women Respond

To Appeal for Garments

The women of Wayne county have responded with gratifying results to the appeal of the Red Cross last week

for a revival of war-time interest in making garments and hospital supplies. Thirty-five hundred garments due for shipment on May 10 have been given out in quotas to the various organizations of the county and city, and no body of women has refused to do the work assigned to it. The women of the First English Lutheran church started on their quota of "400 garments by May 1" last Thursday. At St. John's Lutheran, St. Paul's Lutheran and the Grace Methodist Episcopal churches, the women will start today or early next week. Other churches have planned to do their shares later in the month. Great interest has been shown by the West Richmond unit which has been sewing on refugee garments for months. This unit will undertake a quota of another hundred garments for April. Throughout the county the women

are not only willing to do what has been asked them, according to Miss Margaret Starr, director of women's work for the Wayne county chapter of the Red Cross, but one group of county workers wrote this week: "We will gladly accept our auota.

and we may be able to do more."

"Liberte, Egalite, Fratemite" Liberty, Equality, Fraternity" were the three watchwords of the FrpnHi rpvn.

lution of 1789. The original cry was for liberty, and the othpr two ivnrn q

were gradually and separately added. ,

LABOR BUREAUS TO BE CONTINUED

INDIANAPOLIS, March 29. In order to maintain a "barometer" o changing labor conditions, the United States employment service has announced that the service of community labor boards would be continued indefinitely. A demand for information as to the unemployment situation the country over, it is said, Influenced

he decision to continue weekly bulletins from the service to large employers, public officials and others interested. Reports for the week ending March 25, indicate a slight improvement in the number of unemployed, although the area of unemployment remains practically unchanged. Of 122 citie3 reporting, only 7.3 per cent show a shortage of labor, 68 per cent A surplus of labor and 24.7 report the supply and demand about equal. In the reports from the middle west seven Indiana cities show a large surplus, which is less in Indianapolis than for the preceding week, but greater in Evansville and Gary, with South Bend, Terre Haute and Hammond about stationary. Reports from over the state indicate a general improvement in the status of discharged soldiers, sailors and marines. There appear to De fewer registrations for employment and a more general application on the part of employers to take their organization men with military records. There are still many unplaced men, however, and the activity of the bureau is in nowise slackened.

Shortage of silver is affecting the general trade situation in China.

Have them looked after now. "A stitch in time" saves nine and possibly that many dollars or the price of a new tire.

INNER TUBES CAREFULLY TESTED The smallest invisible tube defect is carefully looked after here and all tubes thoroughly

tested before leaving our hands, kind of a tube blowout is made perfectly

and safe for all kinds of road service.

Rubber Eoots and Overshoes With holes and leaks in any part are made waterproof at a nominal cost. We also vulcanize on extra tough wearing rubber soles and heels making them leak proof, and far better than when new.
