STANLEY ADDRESSES FOREIGN WORK MEN . OF "Y" ON CHINA

Rupert Stanley, for five years a Y. M. C. A. secretary in Kaifeng, China, addressed the banquet meeting of the Foreign Work committee, of the local association, Thursday night, on Christianity and Its many purposes. Mr. Stanley said in part: "The- enviable- position America obtained during the -war has been largely torn down. The bearing ' of the United- States toward the League of .Nations has direct Influence .from the standpoint of ' Christians, upon other ' countries. In Asiatic countries a man Is not considered his brother's keeper, and I have witnessed a man bleeding

on the roadside, having been hit by a train, and no one would take care of him for the reason that if the man should die while in your hands,' -you' would be liable for damages. . Christ makes It plain that you are your brother's keeper. A great responsibility rests with us as a nation." , He also told of the progress made by the Chinese, stating that they had, by popular subscription, raised $500,000 for the carrying on ot religious education. . The local Y. M. C. A. contributed $1,292.50 for foreign work In 1919, : which - was three times the' amount ever contributed during a preceding ring. - A letter received by Lester W. Carlander,, general secretary from C. W. Pettjt, former general secretary of the LaPorte association, but now stationed at Quinsan , .Gardens, Shanghai was read. H. R, Robinson, chairman of the loc;l foreign work committee, presided at the meeting, which was attended by about 30 persons.

The Theatres

WASHINGTON Steel blue eyes and a firmly set mouth, a calmness not assumed and a poise which is the result of years of athletic training and vigorous outdoor life, belie the oft Impeachment that Eugene O'Brien, Selznick's romantic star, is merely a "perfect lover" a sentimentalist a moonlit hero of scented notes and cloudy visions. Naturally he has a talent for making love he wouldn't be Irish if he hadn't. He does like women he admits it and he ioes believe in love. But his views i screen love-making are typical of the man, and are-Interesting to compare with the popular ideas concerning creen heroes by the picture loving public. "The technique of screen love-making," says the erudite Eugene, in a practical tone of voice, "differs greatly from the stage variety. The camera calls for greater delicacy, a more reserved manner, a slower tempo. Facial grimaces, mild gestures, too many words, spoil all. Moreover, the posing must be infinitely more subtle. On the stage, the audience gets a dozen angles some of them - are bound to be satisfactory. On the screen, there Is only one angle, and it must be perfect. A kiss may be very interesting, or very stupid, because of some angle at which the camera catches it. In this respect much depends upon the camera man and the director." "Love-making on the screen Is, then, a mere art and nothing more? he was asked. "Love-making on the screen," corrected Mr. O'Brien, "sinjply Is an exact science nothing more or nothing

less if it is to be done with the de-J

sirea eriect. Mr. O'Brien, who is one of the screen's most popular stars, will be the feature attraction at the Washington Theatre next week, when he presents his newest Selznick picture, "The Broken Melody," a lyrical romance of love and adventure which. It Is said, is the most pleasing role the star has had. WASHINGTON. "The Girl From the Outside," a Goldwyn Picture by Rex Beach, which shows at the Washington, is a real tale of that northwest, which its author knows so well. It deals with the adventures of a young girl whose father dies on the trip to Nome, Alaska, where he is going to recuperate, he hopes, his shattered fortunes. June, his daughter, land an orphan in a land which "knows only one type of woman" a hard-living, hard-fighting, an orphan in a land which land, in which innocence and honesty is an exotic flower. From the outset of her entrance Into the town her destiny is shaped by the friendship of "The Curly Kid." a young crook, and four scalawag friends, and the enmity of Denton, a gambler. Later she meets Harry Hope, a local capitalist, and her romance begins. Her friend "the kid" lends her the money to open a hotel, which Hope also helps to finance. June is utterly ignorant of the real character of one of her partners but eventually he confesses and she sets him and 'his four chums (all of whom have fallen In love with her) on the path called straight. Meanwhile Hope's happiness Is seriously threatened by Denton's possession of an option to which the gambler has forged a codicil lengthening Its term. June's lover has foolishly gambled away money which he honestly believed he would be able to restore but which Denton's chicanery prevents his doing. When affairs have leached a climax In which June and Hope are helplessly involved, "the Curly Kid" comes to the rescue and, at the, cost of his own life destroys ihe paper which prevents the consummation of the romance. Denton kills him but the kid's Chinese cook revenges his dread master. And 'The Girl From Outside" is accepted as a member of the community as the wife of Hope. WASHINGTON Critics, clergymen, school teachers and other thousands of picture-goers the world over have clamored for better pictures and for stories that are clean, wholesome and simple. In Goldwyn's new Mabel Normand production "Jinx," their wishes have been fulfilled.

This wonderful story of a poor little circus waif who escapes and marries a boy lover or here, cornea to the Washington theater, starting Friday, and it will give you a chanoe to bring the kiddles and the old folks, knowing full well that yon will leave the theater, after seeing delightful Mabel Normand, with the conviction that you

have seen the most simple, yet highly

entetralnig and interesting picture or the season. In this admirable Goldwyn Picture, which was directed by Victor L. Schertclnger, there are kiddies, dogs, cats, a dear old aunt with a love affair of the days gone, and a million bits of detailed action. The circus Is there with its one ragged, dilapidated tent, mangy lions, hook-worm leopards, scrawny camels, and two deaf elephants. MURRAY "Billy Hart and His Circus Girls," who headline the bill at the Murray next Monday,- Tuesday and Wednesday are a whole show In themselves, combining as they do, all the elements that go to make rip-roaring, laughing entertainment. The offering is a novel comedy act consisting of singing, dancing,, talking and burlesque mind reading, so arranged and constructed as to make it one of the most amusing funny acts in vaudeville. ' Billy Hart's reputation as a comedian and fun maker was established years ago, for this clever artist has been before the public as an entertainer in practically every line of amusement. The "Gircus Girls" who Sid and abet Billy in his hits of cihcus and vaudeville, are four beautiful

youn women of more than attractive . , , mW

aypuaraxice, wno Bing gloriously ana dance divinely, besides furnishing abundant opportunities for the many funny situations and clever comedy bits offered by Billy Hart. In this day of Jazz and syncopation

we will find surcease on this bill In the act of two young girls who present the "Days of Sixty-One," singing songs

and wearing gowns which were popular during that period. Johnson and Crane, clever man and woman team, are also billed to present their comedy skit entitled 'Copped." Peggy Hylsnd comes to the screen in her latest picture, "Faith," a five-reel Fox production. Bounding acts are very popular with local fans, so Thursday they will have the pleasure of seeing The Herbert Trio, three men who carry a bounding net, and who have one of the best comedy acrobatic acts in vaudeville. They are the headline feature for the last half. Steel and Edson, r.ho scored a hit at the Lyric, Indianapolis last week, are also billed to appear in their scenic skit termed "Fly Stuff," a satire upon aviation. Another clever team is Bunte and Lillette in "Vaudeville as You Like It," comprising songs, dances and beautiful gowns. The screen attraction will be H. B. Warner in his latest and strongest role, "The Grey Wolf's Ghost," a five-reel production. Lcttle Mayer and her diving girls underlined to open Feb. 5.
