water in two cisterns was pumped out and poured on the blaze. The fire was first discovgered by Walter Fulghum, who was working on his farm near the house. He telephoned an alarm and went at once to the house but was unable to force an entrance or stop the spread of the flames.

MURRETTE One of the remarkable characteris tics in "The Masquerader." the Rich ard Walton Tully production starring Guy Bates Post, now at the Murrette theatre, is the unusual double exposure photography. Even to audiences that have witnessed a great deal of this trick work in recent films and that have been initiated into Its mys teries, the double exposure scenes in The Masquerader" are a revelation. Of necessity, eince the two leading roles of Chilcote and Loder are both played by the star, much of the action transpires between these two men. Accordingly there are several squences of scenes in which one of the charact ers played by Post crosses the other. bands him a cigaret and a light, gives him his clothes and even pushes him out of the roomIt will be recalled that Tully is a practical theatrical inventor, having secured patents for several stage de vices which he has employed in his various theatrical productions. With this experience and the assistance ol such experts as Director James Young, Art Director Wilwfred Buckland and Cinematographer Georges Benoit, it is was to be expected that the unusual double exposure photography would be seen in this film.

Placed in ridlcu lous positions, he is pathetically car ried along by the actions of others, and all the time is in deadly fear of his companions. Mr. Hatton's is a remark able piece of farce-comedy acting, played with the utmost seriousness and delightfully humorous. In the supporting cast. Virginia Val li, Virginia Madison, Will Walling. Gordon Russell, W. H. Balnrldge and sev eral otners. lend the leading man ex celent support. The picture was well directed by Rowland V. Lee, and the interior scenes designed by Cedric Gibbons. When Steve Stanton arrived iii Citrona, Calif., to become owner and editor of the Daily Citizen, he found that all the women were wearing black question marks on their cheeks.
