Smiles are Big Asset Says Marie Fleming If it is true that "a miss is as good as her smile," then these charming and talented young ladies known in musical circles as The Fleming Sisters Trio must be very "good" indeed. "Learning to smile correctly," says Miss Marie, acting as spokesman for the Trio, which is to appear in a Joint recital with Miss Amy Ellerman, the noted soprano, at the Washington on Wednesday evening, "is a mighty big asset." "But no smile is worth while unless it is genuine unless it really comes from the heart. The proper smile the expression that shows genuine Interest is of as much value in busines life as it is upon the concert stage. "it means more sales, more customers, more satisfied customers, and an increase in the financial worth of the saleswoman or salesman."

"Rolling Along," a nautical miniature musical comedy splashed with pretty girls, songs and dances featuring Wood. (I Like a Ford) Young and Phillips, direct from headline honors at the Lyric theatre, Indianapolis, will top the new bill opening at the Murray today. Charles Wood, of the above trio, is a great favorite here as a comedian, and he has some real laughts ready to dispense to his friends. Melroy Sisters, a pretty sister team, who sing and dance, and Dave Roth, who plays the piano, violin, and sings as well as dances, will complete the vaudeville 1)111. Albert Ray in his new comedy, "Words and Music By" will be seen upon the screen. This is a "request" bill sent into the booking office, and asked for by Manager Frank Holland, so his patrons may expect a real vaudeville treat.
The Rev. O. E. Hamilton, an evangelist made an airplane flight of 130 miles at a cost of $100, from Mineral Walls, Tex., to Whitewright, Tex., where he began evangelistic services.
MURRETTE. A heated argument which all but resulted in blows took place during the screeing of "Her Kingdom of Dreams," starring Anita Stewart, when time came for the "shooting" of the scene in which Tom Langley returns home to find his mother dead. Son Embraces Dead Mother. Among the visitors at the Anita Stewart studios were two ministers, one of whom objected seriously to a scene in which a heartbroken son removed his dead mother from her bed and folded her in his arms. He contended that such an act was likely to affect motherless men and women of all ages. However, the other minister maintained that such a scene was entirely probable and that it represennted life, and that is the highest mission of the motion picture. He complimented Marshall Neilan, director, on the scene. This scene, which ahs received wide comment throughout the nation, will be seen in this city when "Her Kingdom of Dreams" will be shown at the Murrette theatre tonight and tomorrow.
MURRAY. Some of the most successful song3 have been written by colored men. Cole and Johnson were the authors of "Under the Bamboo Tree," and "All Coons Look Alike to Me," was written by Ernest Hogan, once a deck hand on a Lake Erie steamer. His success paralleled that of the white hero of
the William Fox photoplay, "Words and Musio By ," which will be shown at the Murray theatre this week. COLISEUM One hears much talk on all sides of the terrible times we have come to since peace has been declared. Everywhere there is unrest, revolutions and upheaval. The conservative souls raise their hands in holy horror, and words fail them. There can, of course, be no denying that were such conditions to extend over a considerable period of time the results would be most disastrous, certainly. Is it not an admitted fact that unrest makes for progress? Surely some great good must come of it all eventually. According to Nance O'Neil. who, beside being a great actress is a keen 6tudent of philosophy, these things were to have been expected. "To ever rightly constituted person," said Miss O'Neil, recently, "the war has brought a spiritual upheaval. This great spiritual upheaval is all that we have to compensate us for the great human sacrifice demanded by the war, and it is showing itself in various ways. In England, for instance, it takes the form of a great revival in spiritualism. Even the church is beginning to recognize and admit certain truths in this regard, and a number of eminent scientists have written on the subject." Revival of Music In America, however, it is taking the form of a great revival and deepening of interest in the arts particularly music. At last the long anticipated American Renaissance is here. Only a couple of years ago New York, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia and San Francisco were considered about the only places in the United States where a person could hear good music all the year around. And even in those cities, the price demanded before one could hear such music was only with
in the means of the well-to-do. Now almost every town of any size has a regular concert course, while many
can boast a season of opera each year in addition, at prices within the reach of the poorest. It is most satisfactory to be able to record that in this respect our city has been decidedly in the van with the foremost, and that musical appreciation in this city is growing apace. The artists who have visited us in the past have spoken in glowing terms of the receptions that have been accorded them in this city, and of the enthusiasm with which their offerings have been received. The coming season promises to be more brilliant than ever, and it is to be hoped that the public generally will take advantage of the excellent opportunities it offers. The most interesting announcement thus far made is that of the All-Star Popular Concert Series, which is of special interest. for a number of reasons. The artists are all favorites with the New York public. First there is Oscar Seagle, the American baritone, who absolutely won distinction over night. There are very few musical artists of either sex who have so completely won over the New York critics a3 Oscar Seagle.

Barbara Maurel, mezzo-soprano, comes from Alsace-Lorraine, which, to every one's delight, has lately come into its own again, of French parents.
Miss Maurel is neither the wife, sister, mother, aunt or any other relation of Victor Maurel, and even if she were she wouldn't have to mention it to obtain public favor, as she is a very young and very lovely girl, with, a most beautiful voice, which, one must admit, is rather a rare combination. Usually a "popular" series is made up of one or two stars and the rest could be most kindly described as persons with aspirations, but in this instance the best has not yet been said. Surely no one could be more welcome than Sascha Jacobsen, the youthful violinist who made such a sensation at his New York debut that even H. E. Krehbiel, .New York's oldest and most fussy critic, who loves to take a slam out of the young artists whenever there is the smallest excuse for it; threw up his hands and completely surrendered. Young Jacobsen has been in the public eye ever since, and he will be certain to rereive a hearty welcome when he comes hereThen there is Amparito Farrar, the young and charming American soprano who has just returned to her native country after having sung to the men in the front line trenches for a year. Then comes the young American tenor, Charles Harrison. He is an out-and-out American tenor, having been born here and received his training here, but when he sings the famous aria from "Pagliacci" Caruso himself couldn't make it seem more truly Italian. The songs of yesterday, the simple, touching songs, which have again come Into their own since the war, make up the numbers which the Columbia Stellar Male Quartet, consisting of foist tenor, second tenor, first bass and second bass, sing together. "My Lassie,,' "Sing Me to Sleep", and "Carry Me Back to Ole Virglnny" are some of the old favorites which 'they sing with so much feeling. The dates of the concerts are as follows: October 27, December 2, March 9, April 16, at the Coliseum.
WASHINGTON It takes a far more versatile person to be happy in a tenement district than it does on Riverside Drive. Amy Burke, played by Mary Pickford, discovers this in "The Hoodlum," her second picture produced in her own studios, released by First National Exhibitors' Circuit and which is showing
row. As Amy Burke, Miss Pickford is the granddaughter of a financial powef, a victim of all the ills of rich children and the recipient of all luxuries within the power of purchase. But all of Amy's relatives are not as

successful in matters of finance as her grandfather. Her father, for instance, is a sociological writer and lecturer, of whom she has not heard for years. Her life of luxury Is suddenly ended when her father returns, penniless, and she decides to forsake her grandfather and live with her father in the East Side districts where she "shoots craps" with the street ruffians, dances to the music of the hurdy-gurdies and engages in numerous pranfcs with the most reckless of her associates. Amy makes several close friends in her life among the poor, among them being an artist whom she finds out was sent up for a term in the penitentiary on account of a crooked deal perpetrated by her own grandfather. She
determines to aid the man she lovej and whom her grandfather-has caused to suffer. Her plan leads her Into what apptars to police to be a criminal act.' Then comes the big surprise enjoyable to the audience although rather difficult for the star.
