V WASHINGTON. Nazlmora, supreme star of stage.

has achieved air added triumph in her

latest screen production, "Out of the

Fog," which -will be shown at the Washington theatre on Sunday for a threeday engagement This play is

an &.ittion for the screen from her

rest dc&ge success, " 'Ception Shoals'

play vhich created great comment

are and abroad and which was iotd for the intensity of its dramatic

situations.

Madame Nazimova is an actress of murine and original talent. She is

kncn as the woman of a thousand moods and her art is as great in light

fantastic or whimsical moments as it Is in the heavy emotional drama for

which she is internationally famed

She ws born in the Russian Crimea, in a little town on the shores of the Black sea, but was educated in Geneva where she decided on the career

of a violinist and studied accordingly.

She made her first public appearance

t the age of twelve at a concert is

her native town, but it was not long after this that she gave up music for the drama. She studied under the great Stanlslawsky, who considered her an artist of great ability even at an early age. As leading woman in a Russian stock company, she played

more than two bundredparts.

Hale Hamilton, the clever star of

"That's Good," the latest Metro com

edy drama which will be featured at the Washington theatre on Friday for a two-day engagement, has achieved unusual distinction both on the stage

and screen.

Mr. Hamilton rose to fame on the

hoards through his clever delineation of virile, dynamic roles in such pro

ductions as "Get-Rich-Quick Walling

ford," by George Randolph Chester, a play which made him internationally famous, "The Fortune Hunter," "The

Ne'er Do Well," and "A Pair of Sixes

His stage success naturally led the f oung actor to the screen and he made bis picture debut with Metro as the leading man for May Allison in "The Winning of Beatrice." His work was such that he was at once made a star and it was a coincidence that his first picture should have been "Five Thousand an Hour," written especially for him by George Randolph Chester, the author of his greatest stage success. Another Metro production in which he gained distinction was "Johnny on the Spot,"a daphing comedy-drama. Mr. Hamilton is also a playwright and numbers among other plays, "The Return, of Mary," which he wrote especially for May Allison. He was born in Chicago and educated at the Shattuck Military Academy, where he was noted for his skill in athletics.

YOUTHFUL MUSICIANS SHOW GREAT ABILITY IN MAY FESTIVAL PROGRAM

A star like Tom Moore usually has a clearly defined idea of what he does best and what sort of character he therefore likes to assume. In his career on the screen before he became a star in Goldwyn Pictures, Moore has played over three hundred roles. 'On the stage he played fully one hundred, most of them with stock companies .presenting Broadway successes. Tom Moore is frank in saying that the part of Harry Lathrop in "A Man and His Money" which comes to the Washington theatre, beginning Wednesday, holds especial appeal for him. Temperate in his opinions, he does not announce with the customary enthusiasm of the actor that there never was a role like that. He realizes that his characterization of a society spendthrift in "A Man and His Money" in its fundamentals is not unlike the other parts he has assumed. He doe3 pay, however, that the part is more human than he has ever been able to make such a fellow in previous photoplays.

"It is my belief," says Moore, "that

people nowadays want to see them

selves reflected on the screen, not

impossible heroes who surmount ter

rific obstacles, escape fearful dangers and generally crowd the adventures

of a dozen D'Artagnans Into a single hour's life in the cinema. There is a vast difference between being life

like and beinff dull. In my early days

before the camera it was thought that j

action was the only worth while element in producing photoplays. Characterization was given no thought. People had to move rapidly and constantly. - It didn't matter if they forgot to think. It is different, inspiringly different nowadays.

The violin demonstration given by the small children of the public schools, at the first concert in the seventh annual May Festival series, Friday evening in the high school auditorium, displayed the musical proclivities of such young children, their intelligence and confidence. The children taking part in the violin demonstration have been taught by Frederick Hicks, violin instructor. The lessons began the first of the year and beiore that time none of them had ever handled an instrument. In the ensembles they played with ease and in harmony. These numbers were "Melody," by Hayden, "Meditation,? by Gruenwald, "Gay Companions," by Giuliani, and "Lightly Row," by Mitchell. The soloists played without their scores and with a great deal of confidence. They were not over nine years old and were applauded again and again. The soloists were Richard Campfield who played "Dream Waltz" by Vogt, Margaret Bowmer, played "Easter Lilies" by Greenwald, Anna Carson. "Evening Song" by Vogt. George Healey, "How So Fair" and Elizabeth Mote, who played , "Innocence" by Vogt. The second part of the program was given by the Garfield orchestra and young soloists from the orchestra. The solo work was done well and the young people received much applause.

William Hornaday, violinist, who is the youngest member of the orchestra, played a "Gavotte" and a number from

La Sonampula," both of which he

gave'Twith good musical tone and excellent Interpretation of the compositions. Ruth Otte, a very young girl, displayed all the Qualities of an artist in a piano number, "Spinning Song."

by Bolin. William Marshall gave an admirable and notable performance in a clarinet number "Killarney Transcription," by Brooks. His tones, phrasing and breath control were all that one could expect from an artist of long experience. He was applauded with enthusiasm. The numbers of the Garfield orchestra under the direction of Miss Edna Marlatt, assistant supervisor of music

in the public schools, were Interest-, ing and well done. Miss Marlatt, at the close of the program, was presented with a huge bouquet of roses from the members of the orchestra. The numbers were two marches, "Averterf ," by Grosse, and "The Soldier Boy," "The Brownies Story," and the "Gavotte" from "Miriam." The third and last part of the concert was a cantata, "The Gypsy Queen," given by the girls chorus of the Garfield Junior High school under the direction of Miss Marlatt. The interpretation of the young singers was intelligent and their training made it possible for them to give a harmo

nious selection. Special numbers were given by groups of young girls and were enjoyable and artistic. Margaret Bowmer, Emeline Land, Juanita- Longfellow, and Elizabeth Price sang, "See, The Day is Dawning." Carolyn Bartel, Lucile Loofburrow, Mary Minnick and

Helen Dille sang. "Tis Sweet to

Wake." Mary Alice Collins and Naomi Dietz sang, "Legend of the Gypsy Queen."

The second concert of the series will be given Monday night by the vocational classes and the High school

sextette. The program for this con

cert is as follows:

1. Overture, 'Queen of Autumn," Biggs Sextette. 2. Violin, "Concerto in D," Seita; a. Allegro moderato; b. Adagio. Margaret Wissler. 3.

ASSESSED VALUATION IN WAYNE COUNTY TVVICETHAT OF 191S

The assessed valuation of Wayne county will be about $90,000,000 this year against $42,000,000 last year If this country's rise in valuation due to the new tax law keeps pace with that

of the state.

Strange N. Cragun, state tax. commissioner, has estimated that the state's valuation would be about $5,000,000,000 this year, against $2,250,000,000 last year. Figuring this out for Wayne, the county's wealth would be about $90,000,000, or a little more. Cragun said the total assessed valuation would be more than doubled and It might be almost tripled. The great increase will increase the margin of bonded indebtedness under the constitution, which is 2 percent of valuation, but Fred A. Sims, chairman of that state tax board, made It plain that the board would not countenance the use of this greater margin and would not be disposed to approve of bond issues for Improvements that could well be postponed.

jrom, the stage success by H Austin, Adams "CEPTION SHOALSAn unconventional, unprecedented picture, blazing with life and love, as dominant among motion pictures as the great flare of the lonely lighthouse over the window lamps of the fishing town of Gloucester, where the picture was made. As "Eve Coffin," granddaughter of the half-crazed old lighthouse keeper, a lovely and fantastic girl who has never seen women or man other than her lunatic guardian, Nazimova's strange power of creating the vibrant, the electric and unforgettable in art is at its best. And through the strange and stormy story of the girl's awakening to love, of her pain and ecstasy in the ceaseless clash between her mad grandfather and her hero, the beloved intruder, who has come out of the fog, Nazimova is more than ever "The Star of a Thousand Moods."

The Actress Pluperfect

For sheer beauty and dramatic appeal, nothing can compare with the staging of the incomparable scenes where Nazimova, as the elf-woman, fleeing from the loneliness of the rock-bound lighthouse to the jagged and tumbling cliffs over Gloucester, loosens her stormy spirit in the morning sun and dances with the

sea.
