MURRAY. Do you remember the funny man-about-town who appeared with Norman Kerry in support of Mary Pickford in "Amarilly of Clothes-line Alley?" That was Fred Goodwins. Goodwins is an Englishman and he has brought a new type of comedy to the screen. His excellent work with Douglas Fairbanks in "Mr. Fixit" will also be remembered. Now, in "The Way of a Man With a Maid," the new Paramount Picture in which Bryant Washburn is starred, which is shown at the Murray theater
ioaay, air. uooawms again comes into his own with a charmingly conceived screen portrait cf one Bick Olsen, a clerk, and the friend of Arthur McArney, played by Bryant Washburn. Bick was one of these get-there boys and he instilled something of his pep into McArney. With Wanda Hawley, and the other members of a splendid company, Mr. Goodwins gives Washburn splendid support in this new Paramount Picture.
WASHINGTON. She was a cafe girl just one of a number of girls whose lives were bounded by the four walls of the notorious Domino Cafe. She hadn't adopted this mode of life from choice; she had been thrown into it when a child and knew no other. She was the
prettiest of the giijls and was known to the patrons of the cafe as Jo. "The Probation Vife," Norma Tal- . madge's latest Selfcct Picture, in which she is presented by Joseph M. Schenck Is the story qf Jo Mowbray, the cafe girl who became a member of society's "400." No picture ever afforded Miss Talmadge such a wonderful opportunity to protray the remarkable versatility for which she has become famous as "The Probation Wife." Miss Talmadge gives an' excellent interpretation of the cafe girl who
knows by instinct that the life she is leading is not the sort of life she would chose if she had her. choice. The cafe is raided and Jo is sentenced to three years in the reformatory with the rest of the cabaret girls. Here we see a different Jo a different Norma Talmadge. As an inmate of the reformatory she is made to scrub floors and perform all the duties of slavery. No longer does she wear attractive clothes, a beauty patch and curled hair. Her hair is constantly mussy and she wears a gingham apron dress. At the end of two years she escapes. She marries a handsome society man who furnishes her with all the the luxuries of life. Another Jo! As rich socletv matron, in the eorcreous
creations which Miss Talmadge knows so well how to wear, she is beautiful and charming. From a cafe girl, to a Rlftvev. to a. ladv Miss Talmadere cer
tainly has an opportunity to display her versatility, and she does it well! "The Probation Wife" can be seen
on today and tomorrow at the Wash ington theater. Famous New Orleans Bars

She wanted to be a lady, wanted refinement and love, but the mistress of a low dive forced her to entertain the guests, and then something happe ned that changed the whole world for Joe of the Domino.
From dance hall dive to jail. After two years in jail, escape, and then but it isn't the answer you expected.

council.
She is alone. Her only friend is the service star above her head. The 'phone rings and a hearty voice offers "life," wine, the dance, "bright lights" the life of which she had lived no other until the day on which she hung up that solitary star. Did she go? What did she say? Was the lonely service star even more lonely because of that call?

We don't have to tell you who NORMA TALMADGE is. Yon already know and love her. But it might be well to remind you of her two recent smashing successes, "THE FORBIDDEN CITY" and "THE HEART OF WETONA" You liked her as the Chinese girl in "THE FORBIDDEN CITY" and as the little Indian maid in "THE HEART OF WETONA" she broke all bounds. In "THE PROBATION WTFE" you will see her as an American girl. The Norma : Talmadge of the screen will be the Norma Tallmadge of everyday life and it is a role in which her beauty and personal appeal are more charming than ever.

an and Woman Should Read this Letter
My
Darling
Sister :
How can I write it? But if you never know what "became of mama and. me,, you would suffer too horribly.. We were in the convent at Do If nay; when they came. We saw them drive the peasants "before them with hayonets--We were so frightened of their "bestial ways. Then THEY came! God, how can I tell you? Afterwards, when we were so ill, we were herded into cattle cars. Your crushed little sister ALICE After reading this letter la It any wonder that the elder sister risked life and honor even death to mete out just punishment for those -who committed "The Unpardonable Sin?" Come to the Murretta Theatre July 2, 3, 4, 5 and see how that popular and very talented actress, Blanche Sweet, handles thia powerfully dramatic situation In the wonderful film version of MaJ. Rupert Hughes' astounding story, "The Unpardonable Sin." You must see this photoplay masterpiece.
