f"P NEXT WEEK AT THE
HEATER
MURRETTE. It la an appealing bit of girl-psychology that Marguerite Clark unfolds In her new picture, "A Girl Named Mary," which will be shown at the Murrette Theatre during the first part of the week. She has the role of a stenographer living in a humble flat with a woman whom she has always called mother. A rich widow has been nearchlng for fifteen years for her daughter who was carried away, in
volved In a train wreck, and never1 heard from again. The widow suddenly discovers that Mary, the stenographer, is the long sought-for girl and she pours out her heart to her, offering her ease and luxury instead of her humble life of toil. Mary's heart is torn with conflicting emotions. She hardly knows her real mother and she has learned to love her foster-mother dearly. At first she rebels at the elegance and lofty tastes of the widow's household and runs away. But finally a ertaln young man, the sweetheart of fcer less prosperous days, clears up, the difficulty by asking her hand in marriage. George Walsh works so fast in "Sink or Swim," the Fox production which was shown for the first time here yesterday at the Murrette Theatre, that several titled conspirators never eeemed to be able to get their plots Bgalnst a princess well under way. "Sink or Swim" Is a whirlwind play imd Walsh keeps the action going so fast that before his big audiences were finished laughing at one Incident they were howling at another. Walsh, as Dick Mason, is the son of a rich man and therefore shrs work; but his father believes if he sends Dick to Europe to take care of a cattle -.concession, the youngster will come Oback a 'Vegular" man. Well, George does come back a regular man and in addition a married one; for he finds a princess in distress and how he wades into her enemies!
