MAKERS OF SCOTT'S EMULSION

OSCAR SEAGLE DEVOTES HIS ENTIRE TIME TO THE IMPROVEMENT OF HIS ART

Just why it is that so often many successful concert sineers cherish

the hope of getting into the Metropoll-1 tan Opera there is no knowing, any '

more than there is any knowing why the Metropolitan artists want to get into conceit work on the vaudeville stage. When one speaks of American baritones, there are only three that come to mind Henri Scott, Reginald Werrenrath, and Oscar Seagle. There is nothing equal to doing one thing well and sticking to it, which Is precisely what Seagle is doing. He

Griffiths Discusses His "Movie Methods'' The popularity of D. W. Griffith's "'Broken Blosdenis," which is creating a well-recognized furore throughout the country will be shared by local patrons ,when this superb creation is shown at the Washington theatre beginning next Monday. The explanation of his methods, whereby he is able to accomplish such wonders, was given by Mr. Griffith to a New York Interviewer. "In the first, place, I think that a motion picture should have a big idea. In 'The Birth of a Nation' the big idea was patriotism, the silent, hidden, fierce loyalty to America which lurks in the heart of 'ho most commonplace, the most selfish of her citizens. In 'Intolerance' the idea is the passion lor personal, individual liberty, the natural lmpulr.e to resist oppression. That same feeling is what is getting so many races teething today. It is alive and lively everywhere. "In the motion picture beauty is the second great essential. The thing that Is the matter with th lives of people is not acute suffering, but colorless monotony. Incidentally, that is what is the matter with many screen productions, too. People who lead dull lives, and t.hr-y are. in the. great majori; ', !o-. c to imagine themselves

created a great sensation last year in New York, and has had all sorts of offers since then, for the opera, comic opera, to say nothing of musical comedy, vaudeville and the movies, but none of these things tempt Mr. Seagle in the slightest. Mr. Seagle Is far too ambitious for that. In the first place, Mr Seagle Is constantly studying to improvl his art, and to learn new things to add to his programs. His latest addition to his repertoire has been the songs of the south and negro spirituals, which he sings in a manner that is perfectly enchanting. Listening to Mr. Seagle sing one of these songs, you need only close your eyes to get a very clear mental picture of the whole thing. Another way in which Mr. Seagle improves his art is by teaching what he has already acquired to others. He is very much sought after as a teacher, but it is, of course, impossible for him to devote much time to teaching while the musical season is on. However, with the coming of summer Mr. and Mrs. Seagle adjourn to their lovely home on Schroon Lake, where they are joined by a number of exceptionally gifted pupils whom Mr. Seagle consents to instruct during their sojourn there. In this way Mr. Seagle is constantly reviewing his own studies, and feels that he benefits a great deal from it. Barbara Maurel, the young soprano from Alsace-Lorraine, who will appear here jointly with Mr. Seagle in the All-Star Popular Concert series on October 27, is now working with him at Schroon Lake on the program they will present jointly this season. Seats for the entire concert series are on sale at Weisbrod's music store, North Ninth street.

The Theatres

that is showing at the Washington theatre the last times today, Is a beautiful story beautifully told. The theme is one that Is as old as the world and as universal as man, carrying a message of love, pathos and human emotion that makes the production one of absorbing human interest. Paul Perry, son of a money-mad father, married the lovely daughter of a minister of the orthodox religion. When his wife died in child birth Paul lost faith in the "God to Whom the will of man should meekly bow," as he had been taught, and became a wanderer. He went in quest of the true God, but sank to the depths of degradation in his search. After many years of unavailing search he returned to his old home to learn from the lips of his own child the truths the world could not teach him. Into the story is woven the selfsacrifice and unfailing love of a girl his dead wife's sister who had devoted her life to the care of his little boy and taught him that "God is love." Little Bob. his son, by his child-like faith, melted the money-hardened heart of old Perry, incidentally saving his life from a gang of workmen who had been driven to desperation by his iron-fisted domination. "The Turn in the Road" Is a production of artistic beauty, and the realism Is accentuated by a vivid storm scene during a big dramatic climax.

MURRAY. A real jazz band furnished music for the dance scene in Thomas H. Ince's latest photoplay, "The Homebreaker, at the Murray theatre today. The players were among the best jazz musicians that could be secured in Los Angeles and their playing was under the direction of Victor L.Schertziner, who previous to becoming a

Firuct s:uh ,ok?. That is why they ere admired on 'bo vcrer-n. "At the risk of contradiction, I will Fay- that people like to see tragedy. I don't believe they go to the theatre mainlv to laugh. The reception of most of my pictures testifies that. But finally, as the great desideratum, there must be perfect acting. Let me F.tate that, the most gigantic spectacular scenes I have produced have not given me as much work as the requiring of members of my cast to act naturally. Naturalness in acting forms t'ie human touch, without which the photoplay is worth nothing more than a scenic display. Recently we worked hours trying to get a girl to smile naturally. We wanted just a simple, human smile, and yet, no matter what we did it seemed to elude us. I have ivu yet succeeded in these human tcndits to my satisfaction, but 1 am hopeful at the progress made."

MURRAY. Those who see Julian Hall, the featured comedian of "Snap Shots of 1919," the big girl act which opened yesterday at the Murray for three days, will not wonder why he was featured on the Century Roof, New York City, for one whole season. His versalitility appears unlimited, while his work is thoroughly refined and genteel and has that appeal which is so necessary before Broadway offers its stamp of approval. This talented performer dances, sings, plays the trombone, saxaphone and does a Chaplin imitation which is "a riot." The whole act is the classiest girl act seen at the Murray theatre under the present management, the scenery and wardrobes resembling The Follies in miniature, while the girls are extremely good to look at and wear their clothes as though they were used to it. Another stupendous hit is Hibbett and Malley, two boys who have

Lloyd and Whitehouse have a "nut" act which is highly amusing, with the lady displaying a very good voice.
