Raonl A. Walsh from the famous novel by Peter B. Kyne, widen, is playing at the Murrette theatre. Miriam Cooper, the leading woman, plays tthe role of "Nan, of the Saw-d-ist Pile," while Ralph Graves takes the role of Donald McKaye, son of Hector McKaye, the owner of an extensive saw mill on Puget Sound, and who is known far and wide as "The Laird." The "Sawdust Pile" was the common name for new land along the sound, which had been made by the accumulation of sawdust and other refuse from the milL Nan and her father made their home in a disreputable shack in "The Pile, and they were about to be evicted through the treachery of an employee of the saw mill when Donald interfered. It was his first meeting with Nan, and he immediately fell in love with her, but before they found real happiness their romance was threatened several times with disruption. MURRAY Thurston Hall, who plays the part of Caesar Maruffi in the Rex Beach, production of "Fair Lady," made for United Artists' Corporation, now at the Murray theatre, had an exciting time in the last few hours of his work in the picture before leaving for Montreal, Canada, where he was booked to appear in a new stage play, The "rough-stuff" that he was called upon to do caused "him to leave for his theatrical engagement with torn clothes and braised body. In the final scenes of the picture, Mr. Hall is" the central figure in a mob battle fought on the fourth floor of a tenement house, and the climax of the fight comes when he falls down the well of the stairway. The fall was an actual one and it had to be retaken six times before the director was satiefled with the action. By this time Mr. Hall was badly used up and bis clothing so torn that he had to bo rushed in a closed car to the station to catch his train, where all his baggage bad preceded him.

the more dignified national selections. Their attractiveness is partially due to the costume worn. From the first throw of the dice, to the shuffle off, the two blackface comedians, Lloyd and Go ode, have the interest of the Jolly and the "number" of the glum. Perhaps their best bits are those brief spells when they Tise their feet. Frances and Scott furnish a contrast over the usual dainty little maid demurely presenting her "piece. Singing is the product of the team, and the scale reached by the two varies somewhere between the bass and the treble cleff. Aerial antics often have few redeeming features but Althea Lucas has a marvelously entertaining act because of her unusual athletic ability and the setting surrounding her performance. The act is accomplished with the aid of a partner and la a good opening offering. "Fair Lady Is the film attraction, MARVIN.
