Three," the new Thomas H. Ince-Para-mount picture, in which Enid Bennett v, ill , appear at the Murray theatre next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednes

day. Much of the action transpires

in the Great American desert and this affords some exceptionally effective opportunities for fine scenic effects in the exterior shots. Fred Niblo directed and CasBon Ferguson is the leading male support. The story opens In a cabaret on the Great White Way, and here Miss Bennett is seen as an entertainer a new role for the demure little ' star.

She weds a westerner to escape the life she leads, and which is repellant. But she finds she has only jumped from the frying pan into the Are. Her husband proves to be a dissolute brute. From there on, the real drama follows, and for sheer tenseness and thrill this picture has seldom been excelled. The ending is happy, but the heroine experiences many vicissitudes ere that time comes. The support is artistic. MURRETTE Rupert Hughes and Frances Marion there's a combination to be reckoned with. And Mary Pickford's latest Artcraft. picture, "Johanna Enlists," which will be shown at the Murrette theatre next Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, was picturized by Frances Marion from Mr. Hughes' story, "The Mobilizing of Johanna." To tell Mr. Hughes' fictional activities would be to name a dozen of the most popular books of recent years. It may be remarked incidentally, that he wrote "We Can't Have Everything," which Cecil B. DeMille recently produced for Artcraft. His short stories, novels and novelettes, which appear in the leading magazines and in book form, are read wherever English is spoken, and seem to contain the American characteristics in a startling degree. Frances Marion has written many pictures for "America's Sweetheart" and is known far and wide in film circles as one of the most cultured of photoplay wrights, with Imagination and a peculiar ability to invest her screen stories with a whimsical charm that makes them ideally suited to the star. At the same time she is capable of entirely different pictures such as "The City of Dim Faces," which Paramount released, with Sessue Hayakawa in the star part. She has had much experience as a newspaper writer as well as in screen authorship and her varied activities in this direction

have brought her into' close contact

with life in all its phases. Her sense of humor has been sharpened against

the whetstone of life, and she feels what she writes. Story of "Pettigrew's Girl," at the Murrette Friday and Saturday. William Pettigrew is stationed in an embarkation camp near New York,

and he Is extremely lonely as he has no one to write him letters. Passing a shop window one day he sees the picture of Daisy Heath, a popular chorus girl. Struck with admiration he buys the picture. Later he sees her , In the comedy in which she is appearing, and waits outside to tell her how he admires her. She is the recipient of warm attentions from Hugh Varick. a millionaire, who wants to marry her. She has considered him a good catch, for she longs for a leisurely life, but her meeting with Pettigrew sets her to thinking of other values. When she sees the soldier again, she becomes fonder of him and later on breaks Beveral engagements with Varick in order to be with

Pettigrew. On the day before Petti

grew sails for France he comes to see her, and tells her how he loves her. This decides her against Varick, in spite of his money. When she sees him again she tells him that she has never loved him, but has considered him merely for his money, and does not intend to sell herself into slavery. Then she waits patiently until Pettl-

i grew returns victorious from France.

Elsie Ferguson, star of "Heart of the Wilds," her latest Artcraft vehicle which will be shown for the first time in this city at, the Murrette theatre next Wednesday and Thursday, was hostess to two hundred or more cowboys at a barbecue given in their honor by Director Marshall Neilan, during the filming of that photoplay at Cody, Wyo., and vicinity recently. The appearance of the famous star caused a sensation among the residents, and she was accorded a. big popular ovation. Mr. Neilan gave a barbecue at which Miss Ferguson was hostes. Speeches were called for and Miss Ferguson made an address in which she exhorted her hearers to stand firm for world democracy. At a given signal, every cowpuncher in the party fired a salute by way, of appreciation of her patriotic sentiments. One of the cowboys, a dare-devil, rode into the hall on his pony. Prince, and performed many marvelous stunts which Impressed Miss Ferguson so favorably that she purchased Prince at a fancy price and shipped the pony to New York where the popular actress will exercise the animal during her leisure hours. Miss Ferguson is a daring and expert horsewoman with few equals in this country.
