and it is easily the equal of, if not superior to Mr. Mansfield's performance. MURRAY. Thomas H. Ince ran into unexpected complications when he attempted to make scenes for his latest production, "Dangerous Hours," which is coming to the Murray theatre the last half of the week. To secure the utmost realism for the picture, Mr. Ince and his company journeyed to the silk mill district of Patterson, N. J. The underlying theme of the film is the current radical unrest and the producer planned a big Bcene in front of a factory, in which an actor playing the role of a Russian agitator harrftngues the crowd. Mr. Ince had no trouble securing "extras' for the scent. It was "shot" during the noon hour, and the hundreds of workmen who crowded around made It difficult to use the camera. They shouted, gesticulated, and waved their arm while the movie Bolshevik spoke in empassloned language to them. Mr. Ince grew uneasy. When they started surging toward the

factory entrance in an angry mob, his fears were realized they had taken the speecch for the real thing. He ordered the camera to stop clicking at once and called off the orator, then with considerable difficulty dispersed the audience. "Never again." said the producer, afterward. "Next time 1 will make my mob shots in the peaceful confines of Los Angeles." MURRETTE "The Courage of Marge OTtoone," Vitagraph's splendid screen version of

the powerful novel by James Oliver j

Curwood, which will be seen at the Murrette theatre the last half of the week, Is a veritable "Call of the North." And a clarion call It Is that this splendid, vigorous story of the frozen Northland sends out from the screen after being plcturlzed and made into a superb, big special photodrama production. The magic of the motion picture turns warm and glowing pages of masterly story into a pulsing, living drama whose sheer charm and realism carries one away to that vast white coun

try "up there," north of the fifty-third, with all Its grim glory and grandeur. It breathes the breath of life into the stanch and sturdy men and the courageous and beautiful women of this story. And in the deep rich colors and splendid hues that the painted world could never find it has painted a backgound for the romance and tragedy the villainy and valor, the stirring mystery and the startling surprise.

The Theatres

WASHINGTON. The appearance of John Barrymore in the screen version of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," which will be shown for three days, commencing Thursday next at the Washington Theatre, has

proven an event in the dramatic;

world as momentous as was -the performance of Richard Mansfield in the stage play adapted from Stevenson's famous story. Mr. Mansfield created a sensation in the theatrical world with the dual character In 1887. At the invitation of Sir Henry Irving, he took the production to London and there duplicated the success he had scored in America. Mr. Mansfield continued to appear in frequent revivals of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" until the time of his death. The esteemed actor's portrayal was a masterpiece, but the very character of the story made the transition from "." to "Hyde", which must be ,i. .., i..,fr,T-.- eyes of the audiences, a rather difficult and theatrical piece oi ou. j.icss. It is done more smoothly by Mr. Barrymore, since motion pictures can make use of the simple and effective device of "double exposure." Mr. Barrymore's characterization of the young physician is a most remarkable and subtle piece of work. It is as good as anything this talented star, hailed by many as the greatest actor on the American stage, has ever done.

If you like strong, vigorous, red-blooded fighting stories, where blows and blood, hatred and murder show themselves, together with the great wild wastes of the frozen North, grizzly bears, fierce male mutes, primitive rofen and tender and beautiful women, you will like 'The Courage of Marge O'Doone.
