WASHINGTON Out at the Thomas H. Ince studio they have a place that has been named the "kiddle koop." It's the "set" where, Douglas MacLean and Doris May make those delightful screen comedies, like "Twenty Three and a Half Hours' Leave" and "Let's Be
Fashionable." The reason for the nickname is, of course, the tender age of the two players, who are probably the youngest stars in fllmdom. Doris is just past eighteen, and Doug is about three years older. Doug and Doris are the life of the Ince "lot," Both seem to radiate the air of good-natured youth and they have made abject slaves of every property (man, veteran director, and electrician who comes into contact with them. They are continually "on the go," -whether whizzing ta the golf links in Doug's scarlet roadster for a brief round during lunch hour or frolicking through a scene in one of their pictures "Let's Be Fashionable," which is showing at the Washington theater Satutday, reflects their high spirts. It is the story of a pair of newlyweds who became enmeshed in all sorts of laug&able complications from trying to keep up with the wealthy crowd at a California summer resort. Thomas H. lace produced the picture for Para
mount Artcraft release. MURRETTE. It 0s a fascinating subject to conjecture upon as to what could be accomplished by the new branch of surgery in tratnsfering monkey glands. Marshall Nellan in his latest photoplay "Go and Get It," which closes at the Murette theater, on Saturday has chosen a probable development as the force in back of the dramatic story which, the pisture shows. A surgeon has arranged f&r the body of a murderer -who is to be hanged. He transfers the brain of the murderer to the skull of a living ape. The combination of the enormous strength causes a reaction that provides one of the most tfeffling mysteries ever conceived by an author, and unraveling of which gives opportunity for a dramatic love story filled with thrills and surprises.
In the opinion o surgeons the Idea is not beyond the bounds of what may be- expected. Means have already been discovered for treating and operating on the brain. Injections into the base of the brain are daily improving the status of imbecilic children and and even grown people. Removal of foreign matters from the brain are so common now as to excite no comment. More and more is being learned of the brain every day and the operation upon which the story of "Go and Get It" is based, may be a matter for accepted science within a few years. jMURRAY. When Mary Miles Minter is seen at the Murray theatre in "A Cumberland Romance." beginning Monday local
film lovers will see a bona fide case
of extreme content.
For such -is Martha Mattox, the
mountain mother of the picture.
"Don't you ever regret that you've
given your whole stage and screen life to character parts?" she was
"Not a bit of It," she replied.
enjoy interpreting a dificult, even an unattractive role, Just as much as other people like to . take the star
part. It is a real source of pride to me when I hear people in the theater
say, 'My, ain't she terrible' For I'm not really terrible at ail! And if I
make people think so, isn't that art?" Miss Mattox usually plays old maids
of sour and angular disposition. In "A Cumberland Romance," however,
she plays a typical slattern of a moun
tain cabin. Her characterization of the part is one of the most convincing
features of the production.
"A Cumberland Romance " - was adapted and directed by Charles Maigne from the book "A Mountain EuroDa." by John Fox, Jr. Other
characters seen in support of Miss Minter include Monte Blue, John Bowers and Guy Oliver. Faxon Dean is responsible for the photography. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE. Lovers of "Jazz" music with its attendant contortions will have their fill next week when Bob Sherwood and His Six Entertainers open an indefinite engagement at The Murrette,
and Ruth Curtis and Her Jaz Band of
Five Boys headline the new bill opening Monday matinee at The Murray

MURRETTE Settlnen of exceptional interest
were designed for the first Wanda
Hawley starring production ror .eaiart, to be. shown the first half at the Murrette theatre, beginning Sunday. It is entitled " Miss Hobbs." from the Jerome K. Jerome comedy scenarlzed by Elmer Harris. Miss Hobbs, the character taken by mii. TTwir 1b a suner-feminlstic
young woman who cares more for fads and futuristic art than love, babies, and the housewifely duties which take first place In the minds of most women. She is converted from her ideas, however, by but that would be telling the story. To carry out Miss Hobbs' artistic idea, the interiors shown are splendid examples of the Impressionist school. The colors are strongly contrasted and there Is excellent use of both curves and angles. White cockatoos with huge yellow crests form a color
ful touch in one scene, wane tne Hobbsian taste in servants reverts to
i Orientals and blacks attired in Dar-
baric costumes. Because of the strong futurist touch of the piece, really a satire on modern art fads, the settings are unusually original and form a distinct note of interest. To get results from your farm sale, advertise in The Palladium.
