WASHINGTON Playgoers who believe that the limit bias been reached In photoplay realism are due for an awakening when they ., witness "The Great Air Robbery," the wonderful ynlversal feature starring Lieutenant O. L. Locklear, who changes from plane to plane in mid-air

which will be shown at the Washing

ton Theatre Friday and Saturday.

The story of "The Great Air Rob

bery is not, only up-to-. the minute,

but a few years in advance; for it concerns Larry Cassidy, crack pilot of the

American transcontinental mall service, and his fearless, dare-devil feats

In bringing to an end the exploits of

a band of air pirates and winning the

girl he loves. The mastery of the

air by men and women of iron nerve and hlstronlc skill has made possible

the filming of this- thrilling narrative which, while It has yet had no parallel In real life, is quite within the scope of modern achievement. Aside from its amazing scenes 5.000 . feet In mid-air, "The Great Air Robbery" tells a dramatic story with a punch in every scene;,: The story was written and directed by Jacques Jaccard, and assisting are Lieut. Locklear and Francella Billington, Allan - m. J-l T1UI11IK.

essary to put the Marimba Band, playing this week at the Murrette theater, on for the first act. The loss of the headllner weakened the bill noticeably, but It was hoped to have the act on Friday. Craig and Catto, in "A Hodge Podge of Nonsense," seemed to please the audience more than did the act following, which dosed the bilL- Although their act is similar to many seen, filled with snatches of song, and some very good rapid-fire questions and answers of a humorous nature, they held the

In "The Whisper Market," the Vitagraph special screen production starring Corlnne Griffith, irritation led to the brink of disaster for Basil North, vice-consul at Rio de Janeiro, and Erxninie North, his wife, and social leader of the American colony. North 'was irritated, in the first ner of a fashionable modiste's. His irritation increased when she inter

ceded on behalf of a man he had rea

son to suspect as a smuggler.

But North could not tell her of his

suspicions, and his unreasoning attl

tude nettled lier in turn. When North

neglected his wife because of official business her pique got the better of

her. She stepped right into the trap

laid for her by a band of international crooks, and for a time it seemed that she could not escape without the most

serious consequences. "The Whisper Market" will be

shown at the Murray theatre on

Friday.
