' WA8HINQT0N Warren Kerrigan Is always pleasing. In whatever story and characterliatlon we mar see htm. But In "The Lord - Lores the - Irish," hie newest Robert Brunton picture, released by Hodktnson, which comes to the Washlngton Theatre Wednesday, we hare the star In an exceptionally pleasing vehicle. Remember those lovable "Terence O'Rourke" stories in which we used to see him? This is not another of the O'Rourke stories, but It Is an Irish characterization fully as pleasing and as admirably fitted to the big star's acclaimed talents. As usual, Mr. Kerrigan's acting Is excellent, with its strong appeal to
the romantic and wholesomely humorous. The story .takes him up as a
country lad in Glengarry. Ireland, ano
carries him to New York, where he proves amid adventure and intrigue the ability of the-Irish to make good
In America.' The .'efforts of a master
counterfeiter and his accomplices to
replace the . currency of the Celtic
Trust and -. Savings Bank furnishes
plot thrills and suspense without end
And Fritzle Brunette, .one of the screen's most popular young leading
ladies, plays the woman's role in the
charming love story. The photography Is good at all times, and in parts exceptionally beautiful In point, of softness, depth, lighting effects and composition. The picture shows careful direction, with a
masterly handling of those little humorous and pathetic touches that make the spectator- personally acquainted with the players, and in thorough sympathy with them. The background and "sets'' are exceptionally fine, especially those representing an Irish farm and a village street on the Green Isle. All in all, admirers of J. Warren Kerrigan will be thrilled and enthralled by "The Lord Loves the Irish." .- WASHINGTON. The most unusual court trial in the history of the world is shown in "Heart O'tbe Hills," adapted from the story by John Fox, Jr., Mary Pickford's third First National release from her own Kludios .and which will be seen at the Washington Theatre commencing Sunday. -'- : This production shows Mary as she had never been seen before.

The picture is cram-full of Plckfordisms and just the son of story the thousands of Pickterd 4 tans like to seo Mary in. WASHINGTON. Barle Williams, Vltagraph star., surprised many of his professional friends recently on the occasion of his appearance In the role of a rough, uncouth character. Mr. Williams previously has been regarded, as distinctly a drawing room gentleman type, though at times he has more vigorous roles. - In "The Wolf." his latest picture, which will be shown at the Washington, theater the last times today, Mr. Williams Is cast as Jules Deaublen, a rugged French-Canadian trapper. He plays the part with a realism and fidelity to type that is said to have amazed the film authorities. "The Wolf" is an adaptation of the famous stage play by Eugene Walter.
It tells a story of the great northwest. Its scenes are laid in the pictur
esque surroundings of Lake Tahoe, Cal. MURRAY Edgar Franklin, who wrote the story
of the William Fox production, "The Web of Chance," showing today at the Murray theatre, with Peggy Hyland as the star, is gaining an enviable reputation in connection with the
screen. He long nas occupied a nign
place as a writer of fiction. Many of his clever stories have appeared in the Saturday Evening Post and other popular publications. It was the Post that published the series of stories afterward turned into the famous play, "Keep Her Smiling." Although bis stories had won for him fame as a comedy drama writer, Mr. Franklin did not come into prom
inence as a screen writer until there arose the great popular demand , tor comedy during the nervous tension of
the war. His stories always nave unusual plots, excellently . adapted for the screen. At present there Is a greater demand for his work than he can meet. ' . "The Web of .Chance" was adapted from the serial story which -was entitled "Right After Brown" in Its magaslne career. . MURRETTE . An Intensely Interesting story of animal life Is "Back to God's County," by James Oliver Curwood, . celebrated
writer of animal stories. This story
is an Adaptation from "Wapt, the Walrus." It will be seen at the Murrette theatre, commencing today.'
HOW WORDS COME TO PICTURE IDEAS Sometimes words are borrowed bodily from another language. Sometimes a root-word is borrowed, oftenest from the Latin or Greek, and an English ending given it. Again, we take two old words. Join them together and
make a new one. ax. nrei we separate them by a hyphen, but after a while that is left out. and the two are mingled as a single wofd. Then, we
take a prefix, or a suffix, from some other tongue, and add It, after or before, and we have another new word. Or .when a word . " Is too . long, we shorten it because we English-speaking people are great for saving time. Thousands of new words are defined In The New Universities Dictionary which we are now offering- almost free to our readers. It ought to be in every home, office, workshop and study.
