MOTHER! "California Syrup of Figs" Child's Best Laxative

WASHINGTON The principal attraction at the Washington Theatre is "Heliotrope", a new Cosmopolitan Production. Like its popular predecessor, "Humoresque," this is a stirring story of a parent's love .for a child. But while mother love is the primal' motif in "Humoresque," it is the sacrifice made by a father to insure his daughter's happiness that makes the chief appeal in ' Heliotrope." The story, written by Richard Washburn Child, centers around a convict, who is known to his pals as Heliotrope Harry, due to his fondness for that plant and its perfume. Heliotrope's lovely daughter, Alice, has never known her father and mother. The latter is an unscrupuluos woman with a greed for gold. When Alice becomes engaged to a rich young man, brother of her school chum, her mother plans a blackmail game that threatens the girl's future. But before she can carry out her evil design, Heliotrope secures his release from prison and, after several dramatic developments, gives up his life to prevent Alice from coming to harm. MURRAY Carmel Myers is a queer combination of the old-fashioned and the ultramodern. There are times when she suggests a daguerrotype of one's great grandmother at sixteen, and on other occasions she gives one the impression of having been born a generation or two ahead of time. For one scene In a photodrama she will design a gown that would have been

quite the thing at a Dolly Madison reception, and for another scene she will Introduce a creation that looks

like a 1930 hint from Paris. And the

strange part of it all is that she looks

equally stunning in both frocks. When Miss Myers left Universal City a year and a half ago to go on the Broadway stage the reviewers received her as a quaint personality. She reminded them of a Priscilla or an Evangeline. Then she began startling Broadway with new innovations. She introduced a few advanced notes in her stage and street costumes which were widely copied. Just when she had become a Broadway favorite and her position on the stage seemed secure, she decided that she liked the

motion pictures best, after all. She returned to Universal City. Since the arrival of Miss Myers at the film capital she has appeared in three elaborate photoplays. The first was "In Folly's Trail," a story of New York's Bohemian set The next was "The Gilded Dream," a' tale of a' smalltown girl who cherishes visions " of wealth and happiness, and her latest picture, to be 6hown at the Murray theater on Monday, is called "Beautifully Trimmed." and is said to show Miss Myers at her very best. The picture is adapted from "The Orchid", a story by Marguerite C. Storrs. It was directed by Marcel de Sano.

THERE are people in the world though we believe that they are greatly in the "minority who still consider that smallness is a merit, that greatness is a shame, that mediocrity is commendable, and that commercial success is a crime. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) believes that without great commercial enterprises a nation is a dead nation; that great commercial enterprises must be efficient in service to be successful, and that this efficiency means more to the nation than the success means to the organizers of the enterprise. The Standard Oil Company believes that a great commercial enterprise, to be successful under existing conditions, must contribute to (1) Greater efficiency in the production of wealth ; (2) Greater justice in the distribution of wealth ; (3) Greater wisdom in the consumption of wealth. (1) Greater efficiency in production: Among other notable improvements in the refining of petroleum, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has contributed the Burton process. This process greatly increases the percentage of gasoline derivable from crude oil. (2 ) Greater justice in the distribution of wealth: The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) cites the organization of its Company, its liberal policy toward employes including its annuity system benefitting retired workers; its fairness to competitors in maintaining open prices and never deviating from them ; to customers by bringing necessary petroleum products to them with the utmost economy. (S) Greater wisdom in consumption of wealth: The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) not only recognizes its obligation to conserve petroleum and petroleum products to the end that no waste occur, but it maintains a staff of experts, ever at the service of its patrons, to instruct them in the efficient and economical use of the products manufactured by the Company. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is committed to a policy of creative leadership, and because of its loyalty to the ideals outlined above, it is today of signal service to hundreds of thousands of people in ten very important Middle Western States.
