WASHINGTON. Iu tho new Geraldino Farrar picture, "The World and Its Women." which Goldwny will present at the Washington theatre, beginning Thursday, two children play Important roles during the first part of the picture. They present the hero and heroine in the days of their childrood and show their intultlve attraction fr one another long before circumstances bring them together later In life. The boy who plays the young prince la handsome littlo Francis Marlon. Ho conveys In his BtifT and courteous bearing toward the little daughter of his father's chief engineer, -the training for aristocratic life which he Is destined to pursue. He bows like a

courtier upon meeting the little girl, but gradually unbends and plays at reading the story of Cinderella with her. Later when he Is called away, ,Tii3 haughty manner returns, and he again bows in his most princely manI nor. ! Traffic is tied up for fifteen minutes, one traffic cop is dropped in the J sewer, the Mayor and the Alderman . r.re tapped on the head with a twelvejj foot dry goods box and Charlie Chap- : lin is stuck in a pile. of hot tar in ; the opening scenes of "A Day's Pleas- ; ure," which will bo seen at the Washlngton theatre, commencing Thursday. This production marks Chaplin's fourth picture of the million dollar class, which he Is producing for distribution by First National Exhibitor's Circuit. Eastern critics who ; hare seen advance runs of the produoturn,, declare that it embodies the 1 hearty laughs of his previous First i National Successs. "Shoulder Arms," Dog's Life." and "Sunnyside," but hfls in itself the most unqualified laugh success he has yet produced. The famous comedian makes a decided departure from his previous picture, Intending to eschew the slapt etick for events that are likely to happen on a busy corner and on an ex- ' cursion boat.

The management, of the Washington theatre has had every assurance from

the United Artists Corporation that the next production made by Douglas Fairbanks, to be shown here Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Is

the most elaborate, costly and stupen

dous picture he has ever turned out

from his California studio.

When "Doug" began hi3 picture, Immediately after he had finished his first United Artists release, "His Maj

esty, the American," he called a con

ference of his associates at his studio In Hallywood, Calif., and told them his idea for the next ctory. Everyone

was astonished. "Doug" was absolutely determined that ho was going to do something daring, and with that he insisted that everything from beginning to end had to be of the most

elaborate order.

A location in the foothills of the

Cascade mountains, northern Calif ror

nla, about two square miles in area, furnished the site for the city. With the use of four massive electric pumps, more than one million gallons of water were drawn from the Sacramento river and Btored in a specially constructed reservoir at the highest point of the new city. Numerous scenes were filmed in the city, the final one being the spectacular destruction of the little settlement by the flood. Not only In these scenes alone was "Dougf granted opportunities galore to do some wonderfully clever stunts, but all through the picture he does new tricks that will give many thrills to those who glory In his red-blooded manner of working.

RICHMOND.

Chic, captivating Mae Murray, the

maid of many moods, Is the star at

traction at the Richmond Theatre for

Saturday, commencing today in "The A. B. C. of Love," a drama of love's beginning, with the X. Y. Z. of love a moment of delight and joy.

Adapted and directed by Leonce

Perret. from his own story, "The A. B. C. of Love" is full of spice, whimsicality and rare delight, with beautiful Mae Murray, a capricious country girl of naeve Innocence at the opening of the story, and a sadder and wiser young matron forced to match her wits with a worldly wise actress who heartlessly trifles with the girl's hus

band to satisfy her own selfish desires. There are few characters In the cast, but these have been chosen with skill and care by Mr. Perret. H. E. Herbert, popular leading man, Is a very human and likable hero. PALACE. "Sundown Trail," a Universal photodrama with Monroe Salisbury as the star which opened last night at the Palace Theatre, deals with life In the riotous Spanish Bar mining camp in its heyday, 1849. Salisbury depicts the role of "Quiet" Carter, the richest

claim-holder in camp and the leader

of the vigilantes. The miners, becoming restless, send one of their number East to recruit an army of wives for them. When the

women arrive there is among them a

Virginia widow who had ventured in

to the lawless country to ransom her

kidnapped baby from Velvet Eddy, a

Mississippi River gambler.

Forceful dramatic action, a unique plot and the colorful locale of the

Feather River district of California make "Sundown Trail" a photoplay

that will appeal to every lover of outdoor, red-blooded productions.

"Sundown Trail" was filmed on the

actual site of the old Spanish Bar camp in the Feather River country

of northern California.

when discovered, caused such a dense smoke in the basement of the building that it was impossible to enter the building to locate the blaze. Two returned soldiers who were assisting in the work, went to their homes and returned with their gas masks. Wearing the masks, the two men entered the cellar, located the fire, and easily extinguished It. In an effort to locate the source of the blaze, several holes were cut In the floor of the class room above and some damage was done to a gasoline stove in the basement. The opening of school may be delayed some time until the building is repaired. The building is valued at $60,000.
