WASHINGTON. "Daddy'Long Legs," in which Mary Pickford has the most appealing role of her career, and which will be presented at the Washington last time today, is one of the most celebrated stories of the past decade. It first appeared in the Ladies' Home Journal, where it was hailed as the most humanly interesting serial in the history of that publication. It soon followed in book form, and was read in every city of the English speaking world. One million copies were sold, so that Jean Webster, a young woman not long out of college, made a fortune from this single work. Of course the stage claimed it, and under Klaw and Erlanger management, it "cleaned up," making hundreds of thousand! of dollars for the producers. The pajt of Judy Abbott, the orphan girl, is one exactly suited to Mary Pickford. For a long time Miss Pickford has been anticipating the part, for it was inevitable that she should play it, once the theatrical producers were willing to turn over film rights. These M.ss Pickford purchased recently for $40,000. Now o the screen, "Daddy Long Legs" wil be seen by more people than ever. The millions who read the book or saw the play will ee it on the screen, too. for none of them have forgotten this appealing story which romes like a ray of sunshine into the troubles of everyday life. Marslal Neilan, one of the new wondert of the motion picture world, who is known as "The Mark Twain of the Sreen," not only directed the pictur which foretells its humorous merits but acts a part in it. Two score of kiddies aid Miss Pickford in th scenes at the John Grier Orphanage which takes up the first half of the picture.

"prune strike," and then when driven away from the table for their insurgency, find their prayers for food answered in the form of a jug of hard cider. ,Judy, the little boy, and the dog all feel the effects of their "jag," and express themselves by doing the things they had always wished to do. The acting in this scene is especially well done, and the boy who supports Miss Pickford shows "grown-up" ability.' A kind-hearted trustee, whom Judy knows as Daddy-Long-Legs sends her away to college, and then follows a pretty romance touched with enough humor to keep it from being oversentimental. Settings in the college scenes are carefully selected, and add to the effect of the story. Mahlon Hamilton is handsome and appealing as Daddy-Long-Legs who fears to realize his dream of love because he is "too old." Marshal Neil

an, who directs me piay, appears as Jimmy McBride, an unsuccessful suitor for Judy.

MURRAY VAUDEVILLE A capacity house greeted the opening of the new bill at the Murray yesterday evening and applauded vociferously a very clever young lady who performs graceful feats upon a trapeze. She is part of the act known as Ladoro and Beckman and they offer something new and different in aerial work. Willison and Sherwood, who have been featured with Al G. Field's Minstrels for several seasons, are also on the bill singing ballads and yodeling in a manner which pleased the audience. Larose and Lane have a very pleasing act in which they introduce same exclusive song numbers.

MURRETTE. "Press agents are more or less salesmen." writes Bennie Zeidman, Doiglas Fairbank's publicity represen-tafjre.-"It Is principally their duty ta sell the outside public the reason why their respective stars appear to greater advantage in their new picttres, and why the latest production i.o greater than ever befof e attempted, because right down in their hearts tacy believe it. They have to believe If the salesman didn't have any faith in his own product, you could hardly expect anyone else to accept it enthusiastically. That is perhaps the. reason why the bulk of movie press stuff is regarded as bromidlc. This is probably all true and good, but what the writer is leading up to is simply that occasionally something impciril rnmpn ftlonsr and the nress

agent comes to a stone wall for ad-

jectives." All this, according to the aforesaid Fairbanks representative, is directly applicable to Doug's new Artcraft production, "The Knickerbocker Buckaroo ," which is shown at the Murrette theater today. - It is stated by Business manager John Fairbanks that the new production cost over $200,000. A trick flugor ring with a secret chamber for hiding some small but precious article mny well bo said to be the inspiration for the dramatic climax in "Tho Law of Men," the latest Thomas H. Inco photoplay starring Enid Bennett Bhows at the Murray theater today. The story was written by John Lynch, who in connection with his literary work has been a globe trotter

and a constant collector of curios and antiques. It wa3 during a visit to Cairo, Egypt, several years ago that he found the curious ring at a weird little shop conducted by an old Egyptian. He assured the American collector that it was an exact copy of the ring won by ancient Egyptian rulers that the might commit suicide when they were in danger of falling into the hands of .in enemy. An organization that has traveled over 400,000 miles during the nineteen years of its existence must be of superior quality or they would not be in such demand. This is true of the famous "Kilties," Canada's greatest concert organization, under the able leadership of Murdock J. MacDonald, and If Andrew Carnegie was giving medals "to the most traveled musical organization, the "Kilties" would undoubtedly wear them. The "Kilties" is a unique organization and is quite different from all other band attractions. The programs are bright and novel and full of surprises. During the concert, Scottish dances and bag pipe soloists are introduced and a noted singer appears. They are all dressed in full regimentals. The "Kilties" will appear here at the Murray

Daddy Long Legs" Draws Crowds To Washington

This is the last night in which to see Mary Pickford in "Daddy Long Legs," which is attracting record crowds to the Washington theatre. The charming little actress is at her best In the play, adapted from the popular book of the same name by Jean Webster. She is supported by an attractive, mischieveous group of youngsters, ranging from two years or so upward. The scenes in the orphanage where Judy Abbott (Miss Pickford) spends her childhood, combine comedy with pathos in a clever manner. There is a hilarious scene in which Judy and her youthful adherent declare a

Hair ia by far tho most conspicuous thing about us and ia probably the most easily damaged by bad or careless treatment. If we aro very careful in hair wanning, we will have virtually no hair troubles. An especially fine Bhampoo for this weather, one that brings out all tho natural boauty of the hair, that dissolves and entirely removes nil dandruff, excess oil and dirt, can easily be used at trifling expense by simply dissolving, a teaspoonful of canthrox (which you can get at any druggist's) in a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. This chemically dissolves all impurities and creates a soothing, cgoling lather. Rinsing leaves the scalp spotlessly clean, soft and pliant, while the hair takes on the glossy richness of natural color, also a fluffiness which makes it seem much heavier than it is. After canthrox Bhampoo, arranging the hair is a pleasure. Adv.
