MURRAY "Women Who Wait," the PlaygoersPathe feature that brings Marguerite Clayton, Creighton Hale and George MacQuarrie to the Murray theatre today, is a story of the sea the sea that is sometimes calm and peaceful, oftimes stormy and tempestuous, but always beautiful and cruel. A story of men who have fought the cruel sea men on whose faces the sea has stamped their characters; men whose natures have been tempered or softened by the stern life of fisher folk. A story of a woman who waits and keeps burning in her heart a love as steady and undying as the beacon in the lighthouse tower. The plot: the triangle of two brothers in love with one girl. The stronger one wins her by lies and tricks, but his treachery and jealousy work his own undoing and, in the end, the winners are the man who was true and the woman whose love waited. There is strong, virile drama in the conflict between the brothers. There is
potent, poignant love that knows sacri- j
nee, heartache, suffering and the joy I that follows sorrow. There is rare,'
delightful atmosphere in the Cape Cod seacoast locations, and the quaint, homely characters. There is melodrama as sweeping and mighty as a stormy sea in the thrilling, breathless climax. There is entertainment that lifts you out of yourself in every foot of this vibrant drama of life. RICHMOND. Subtitles of epigrammatic brilliance are taken for granted in a Cecil B. DeMille production following the high mark set by the subtitles in "Why
Change Your Wife?" "Something to Think About" and "Forbidden Fruit." However. "The Affairs of Anatol," latest production of the famous producer, which will be the feature at the Richmond theatre all this week is said to excel all previous efforts in this respect. Jeanie Macpherson, author of the story suggested by Arthur Schnitzler's play of the same name is responsible for these subtitles and to her proes the credit for their scintillating phraseology, thought and wit. "The Affairs of Anatol" is a searching analysis of the matrimonial and divorce problem handled with the mastery which is Cecil B. DeMille's chief distinction. He has developed a powerful storv that deals in real
truths, it is said, and to this he has added a sympathetic comedy note that serves to relieve the serious vein of the story without in anyway detracting from the power or vividness of the central theme. Wallace Reid and Gloria Swanson head an all-star cast in this picture. The effect of these subtitles is materially increased by the symbolic art work which decorates the subtitles. This art work is from the brush of Paul Iribe, the famous French artist and designer, who is now serving as art director for Cecil B. DeMille productions. His color on the screen is secured by the quadri-color process which is the exclusive property of Paramount pictures and which has been developed under the direction of
Loren Taylor. MURRETTE Genuine students of the motion picture and its future are from time to time expressing doubts as to its exact province and many hold to the opinion that in its present transitory state the destiny of the cinema art Is yet to be defined. Directors and producers are blamed by some for specializing in the new field, for making too much of the entertainment feature, dwelling at too much length on the spectacular, overreaching the bounds of the characterization and bringing forth in excessive measure the pathetic. In the latest and greatest -screen production, "Way Down East," to be seen for the first time in this city at the Murrette theatre all this week, D. W. Griffith has again shown his genius by avoiding any set form, with the result that he has convinced them all in what amounts to practically a departure in the art. Mr. Griffith has overlooked nothing. Rather he has made of his screen a mirror to reflect life in all its moods. This unusual presentation, made from a sterling stage drama, has given the wizard of the film great rein for his vision and imagination. That he has

as the most novel play which the! the receiving end of James Smith's
company has presented during its stay
in Richmond. The leading man, Herbert Duffy as James Smith ("rich Bible manufacturer, and leading lady, Miss Nell Redd, as Catherine Smith, hl3 wife; play exceptional roles in this presentation. Duffy handles the situation with unusual style. Miss Redd is a very neat, saving little wife in the household of the rich husband who later decides to spend her husband's money. Mr. and Mrs. Edward Early, played by Jay Collins and Lucille Husting, are friends of the Smiths. Mrs. Early is a spending wife, directly opposite from the make-up of Mrs. Smith, and she has kept her desperate husband bankrupt during most of their married career. .This pair adds to the humor of the play throughout and gains favor with the audience. Mariam Smock plays the part of Evan Johns, the niece of Mrs. Early, who is the little, spoiled girl who thinks that life is a dream. After toying with her sweetheart, Tom Trainor; played by Andrew Streng, during the early part of the play, she comes back to him to live the simple life. Lotta Ellis, plays the role of Hilda

made the most of all these opportunities is readily apparent to any student who witnesses a presentation of "Way Down East." With rollicking comedy types and scenes to. work with, a chance to contrast pastoral simplicity with city luxury and finally in a great climax of stirring scenes amid swirling blizzard and crashing ice floes it may be easily realized what scope has
been offered to him. However, the pinnacle of Griffith's art in this won-1 drous picturization lies probably in' greatest strength wherein he takes the love story of Anna Moore, adds to its charm and appeal and thus bares thei

Think of "Male and Female." Of "Why Change" Your Wife?" Of "Forbidden Fruit." Then try to imagine a story greater than any of these stronger, more unusual, more thrilling. Imagine scores of settings, every one of them more elaborate, more daring, more luxurious, than anything you have ever seen on the screen. " Now imagine twelve of the best known players in America,! working under the magic direction of De-Mille. If you can imagine one superlative picture with all this and more jou will ha"ve a slight idea of "The Affairs of Anatol." People have been talking about it a yCar in advance. They'll be talking for ten years after.
