MURRETTE. - ' The heart appeal of "Jane Goes a-

Wooing." the new Paramount picture starring Vivian Martin which will be shown at the Murrette -theatre today, is certain to make it popular with lilm fans, according to reports. ' It has decidedly more dramatic Interest than most of the recent Martin stotries, and In addition presents a likeable and happy story of a courageous little stenographer In his uncle's house. This girl, Jane O'Neil. is loved by two men, one of them Mickey Donovan, owner and manager of the "White House" lunch cart, and the other, Monty Lyman, a rich young man, whom Jane meets when she takes a Iob aa stenographer in his uncle's touse. : ; Vivian Martin is said to be at her best In the role of Jane, and Edith

Kennedy, who wrote the scenario for

the picture, is reported to have done

an excellent niece of work. Casson

Ferguson appears as Mickey Donovan

and Niles Welch is at his best as Monty Lyman. These young men are both well known Juveniles and their appearing together opposite Miss Martin asures additional popularity for the picture. Two other distinguished members of the cast are Spottiswoode Aitken and Herbert Standing. Helen Dunbar. Byrdine Zuber, Clyde Benson and the McKenzle twins round out the .. cast. Mias Anita Stewart in "Mary Regan" which will be shown at the Mur

wife, in order to, as ne says, escape the contempt bred by too close an association!" A thousand and one unusual things can quite easily happen to a couple who decide to live out a matrimonial existence based upon such premises, and It Is not difficult to believe that the pace becomes fast and furions in a very short time. Complications galore occur, some of which resolve themselves Into not only complicated

but compromising situations of the most ludicrous type, which while being absolutely innocent, appear on the surface to be Quite the reverse. "All Wrong" is presented by the famous house of Pathe as one of their

series of Extra Selected star rnotoplays. The story was written by Mildred Considne and scenarlolxed by Jack Cunningham. William WOrthington and Raymond B. West directed via nrnrfitction. which was tiroduced

at the studios of Anderson-Brunton J

company In Los Angeles. Motion picture lans who enjoy a hearty laugh should certainly not miss the hour of full which is provided In "All WTrong," at the Murray theatre.

"The Read Called Straight," Louis Bennlson's newest Betzwood production, which comes to the Washington

theatre, Thursday only, bids fair to eclipse In popularity his previous screen successes, "Oh, Johnny! " "Sandy Burke of the U-Bar-U." and "Speedy Meade." Once more the

smiling cowboy Is surrounded by a brilliant cast, including Orml Hawley and Henry Mortimer. The breezy westerner with the infectious smile has the role of Al Boyd, a wealthy rancher, whose holdings are

coveted by an eastern syndicate, head'

ed by-Robert Swiftmore. The latter visits Boyd with a scheme to take over Boyd's property. Swiftmore Is

accompanied by ' his daughter, Betty, and her fiance, Harrison Stevens. The

poses marriage. She spurns him, but her father, learning of Boyd's affection for Betty, -succeeds in Inveigling Boyd in his scheme, and gets a threemonths' option on Boyd's vest properties. Later misfortune overtakes Swiftmore, who persuades his daughter to accept Boyd. She dismisses Stevens and telegraphs the rancher to come east and marry her. Shortly after the wedding Stevens induces Betty to accompany him to his lodge

It Includes Charlie Murray, Ben Turpln, JPord Sterling, Marie Prevost, Phyllis Haver, Chester Conklln, Eva Thatcher, Bert Roach, the famous bunch of California rosebuds, the Sennett bathing beauties, and (especially engaged) Botawell Browne, noted stage impersonator of female characters, who is the pivotal Dolnt of the fun.

Browne, as an American aviator infemale disguise, "vamps" Wilhelm, the safety-first Clown Prince, Hindenburg and other court figures, gets "the papers" and returns safely to America.

Dainty Shirley Mason, who is costarred with Ernest Truex in "Goodbye, Bill!" the new satirical comedy. A JohnEmerson-Anita Loos production for Paramount, which will be shown at the Murray theatre next Thursday, Friday and Saturday, has a delightful role which she portrays in her usually winsome manner. - Miss Mason is the true little American girl whose father, a German, who has lived in America for years, is

false to his adopted land. Not so his daughter. Sh.e is carried off to Berlin by her father before America gets Into the war and an effort Is made to marry her off to a Prussian. She
