QUALIFIED LINGUIST i (By Associated Prss) s ROME, Dec. 20. Benito ' Mussolini, the youthful legal dictator , of Italy,' Is an accomplished linguist. Besides his mother tongue, Italian, ne possesses, in the order named; knowledge of French, German and English. He learned French at an early , age and he speaks it "without the slightest accent. - For Borne - years before the war he was a professor of French literature in the University of Milan. While an editor on a newspaper pub- ' iished in Trento and owned by Cesare Batisti, the Italian patriot executed by

the Austrians during the.war, he studied German, and-while his pronunciation is not on a par with his French, he has a profound knowledge of Goethe's tongue.-"

Seriously wounded during the war, he remained two months in a hospital. There, during his convalence, he took - up the study of English.

"I hardly think I could qualify to make a speech in the American congress," he said to a friend recently, "but," he added with a touch of pride. I read the English newspapers my self."

AMUSEMENTS

MURRAY j Allan Dwan's newest comedy drama, j "A Broken Doll," which comes to the Murray theatre on Thursday, is replete with thrills and attractive bits of excitement. ? The action takes place ia j one night and particularly, beautiful night effects of a rain storm carry out the mood of the story. The story-concerns a chap who sets out to buy a new doll for a little girl who toy he haplessly broke. He is mistaken for an ex-convict and find. himself in all sorts of difficulties but as one trouble piles en top of another his only thought and desire is to get a new doll. It is full of charm and drollery and contains no end of fun. Romance, excitement, pathos and humor are some of the ingredients which Allan Dwan has mixed in his most skillful manner. Some of the thrill3 show the hero throwing a wild steer just as it charges down upon a tiny child; a leap from a cliff onto a horss and rider who are passing below; and a dash off of a -bridge by a horse and its rider. " The story is such a clean, refreshing and amusins type that 'it will please all ages and send th?m away with a smile. It is likely to send them away with eyes which have been washed with tears, too. MURRETTE Ralph Ince's latest Selznick Produc tion, "Red Foam," is announced for the first presentation in Richmond at the Murrette theatre on Thursday. Back of this statement, which will no dotrbt be received with much pleasure by those who delight in following the screen and Its people, are many facts which should go to prove that "Red Foam" is quite cut of' the ordinary. The story by William H. Hamby, created a great popuisrity for the au thor when it appeared in the Saturday Evening Post, and ii its transfer to the screen it is said to have lost nona of its original dramatic power an3 intensity.

NEW HIT 7 mm Lord. of a typical small Missouri town. Its characters are all true to life and not caricatures. Harry Tighe, in the role of a philandering traveling salesman, is said to have created a part that will stand for a long time as one of the most original and true-of-life portrayals seen on the screen. The story derives its title from the attitude of the people in the story whose blood boils up and the red foam of passion comes to the surface owing te a series of most dramatic incidents which culminate in a climax of whirlwind ferocity. WASHINGTON Bert I.ytell's afraid they'll never let him attend another American Legion meeting. For dadgum it, a busy scenario writer made it obligatory upon Bert, -a mere "private in the ranks" of Hollywood (Calif.) Post America l Legion, to maul, man-handle and muss up no less a dignitary than the Post Commander, one WTalter Long. Of course, it's all ia the motion picture, "To Have and To Hold," in which Lytell plays a dashing hero and Long a murderous pirate but even at that the stunt savors aln.ost of "lese ma jeste!" "To Have and To Hold," which Is doing a tremendous business at tha Washington theatre this week, is a George Fitzmaurice, Paramount pic ture with Betty Compson and Bert Lytell featured and Theodore Kosloff and W. J. Ferguson in strong roles. Wallace Reid has a fine comedy role in "Clarence," a William de Mille Par amount production which- will be shown at the Washington theatre next Sunday. The etory deals with th' efforts of Clarence- Smith, a rookie, to bring peace to tne members of a wrangling family , where even the piano is out of tune. How he accomplishes this difficult task with the aid of a saxophone, is sa:d to be provoca tive of much laughter. This is the first screen comedy in which Mr. Reid has been seen in several, months. Agnes Ayres and May McAvoy are featured in the cast. , and Mrs. U. S.
