TNEXT WEEK AT THE g HEATERS
. MURRAY. Forrest Crissey wrote "Bab's Candllate," a Vitagraph comedy-drama, with Corinne Griffith In the title role, which will be shown at the Murray theatre on Monday. "Bab's Candidate" tells a story which has its setting in a country town. Barbara, the charming daughter of a United States Senator, is fascinated by a young man who desired to become a leader in -politics. Her father is disgusted with the windja,mm,iig inclinations of . the young man and objects to his marriage to Barbara. However, the senator see3 in his daughters sweetheart, the possibilities of a splendid lawyer. With the coming of election time the senator supports a candidate for the state senate, and the young political aspirant takes a dislike to the senator's candidate and proves his record so Imperfect that the senator is forced to withdraw him from the race. The young man himself is placed in the race. The girl, though herself convinced that her father is correct in his opinion of her sweetheart's incompetency as a politician, still has much adoration for him. Realizing that if he is elected to the state senate he would become so entangled in politics that he could- not devote bis time toward the study of law, she resolves to defeat him. She places an old pauper in the field against herfeweet heart and when election is held the pauper is declared a winner. The atmosphere of Soviet Russia was accurately reproduced in California during the filming of the big Thomas H. Ince production, "Dangerous Hours," which closes at the Murray theatre Sunday. The picture tells a Ihrillingly dramatic story with the current labor unrest as the back, ground. The menace of Bolshevism is depicted in several spectacular Bcenes. In order that the audience may get the proper conception of this revolutionary movement, Mr. Ince determined to show accurately just how it works in Russia. Hundreds of extras were employed, whole streets and buildings at Petrograd were construct, td and a Bolshevik "reign of terror" was photographed on the Ince lot. A typical meeting of the Soviets with a Russian actor depicting tho role of
decree nationalizing women are two of the most striking features. Lloyd Hughes and Barbara Castlo ton are tho most prominent players in
"Dansrerous Hours." The picture wa3 .
directed by Fred Niblo and is a Para-1
mount-Artcraft. Thomas H. ince personally supervised tho screening. MURRETTE Nothing Is more interesting than a
peek at a woman before her mirror, ! while she is doing her darndest to look beautiful. Flanked by jars guaranteed to remove the telltale signs of , creeping age the facial wrinkles and powders concocted to bring to faded cheeks tl3 bloom of an 18-year-old flapper, the woman presents a: spectacle of vanity's grapple with age. But who has ever witnessed the beau-; tiful woman of swan-like throat, peach-bloom cheeks and beautiful figurein her attempt to look unbeauti-: ful and ungainly? But it has been: done. I Constance Talmadge in her latest First National Attraction, "The Ter-, Woman," which comes to the Mur- j rette theatre for three days, commenc-j ing Sunday, presents a highly humor-1 ous glimpse of a young lady in herj pretty little boudoir, distorting her, well-moulded chin Into the typej
known scientifically as proiruumK and vulgarly as "tough," dimming the entrancing gleam of her wonderful evea with a pair of tortoise shell
glasses, and hiding her beautiful figure under clothes that were mode In the year 1898 ah, but the pretty little Miss had designs, and quite unlike the perennial vamp who ensnares over sentimental males with black jet evening" gown cut raklshly nay, risQuely, and sachet, this little dear resorted to the unusual artifice of looking Intellectual, rather than inviting whatever the difference may be.
"The girl was standing on a flat slab of rock close to the edge of a pool. Behind her was a carpet of white sand and beyond that a rockcluttered gorge and the side of a mountain. - She was barefooted. Her feet were white against the dark rock. Her arms were bare to the elbows and shone with that same whiteness. She stood leaning a little forward on the rock slab, her dress only a little below her knees, and as she leaned thus, her eyes flashing and her Hps parted, the wind had tung a wonderful disarray of curls over her shoulder and breast. One hand seemed about to fling them back from her face. Her lips quivered, as if to speak. Against the savage background of mountain and gorge she stood out clear cut as a cameo, slender as a reed, wild, palpitating, beautiful. She was more than a picture. She was Life." This is Marge O'Doone, who will be seen in "The Courage or Marge O'Doone," Vitagraph's screen version of the famous novel by James Oliver Curwood, which will be seen for the last time at the Murrett theater, on Sunduy. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE. The following acts are scheduled to open at the Murray for the first three days: O. K. Legel, comedy and burlesque juggling, who bills himself as

This is only one theme of "Passers By", in which Herbert Rawllnson is starring at the Washington Theatre for 3 days commencing Sunday. J. Stuart Blackton is said to have made of C. Haddon Chambers' charming play, his masterpiece. It is released by Pathe. WASHINGTON. John Barrymore has added another to the list of remarkable dramatic por trayals that he has been offering on the stage and screen during recent years. The vehicle is the photoplay version of Robert ' Louis Stevenson's famous Btory, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." It is being shown at the Washington -theatre this week. The story, as is well known, has as its central character, a young. London physician. Dr. Jekyll. He discovers a fluid by which he can transform himself Into a grovelling, wicked creature,

Hyde the bad side of a roan's nature in a human body. The liquid also allows Jekyll to resume his normal form at will. But gradually Hyde gains the ascendency over Jekyll, and the unfortunate doctor, to save the innocent girl to whom he is betrothed, takes poison. The appearance of Mr. Barrymore in the picture, of course, recalls the late Richard Mansfield's success in the stage version of the classic. The films, with their ready and clever re-

sort to "double exposure," make the Btory more convincing, especially in the scenes showing the transition from Jekyll to Hyde. Mr. Barrymore's understanding of his role Is perfect. He imparts a sincerity, aB well as a keen sense of dramatic values to his portrayal that makes it unique in modern film literature.
