AMUSEMENTS

MURRAY Those who believe that the dance hall-gambling resorts of Alaska and the far north are all of rough hewn construction? entirely lackiug in the gorgeous and elaborate, 'will be sur prised when the truth is revealed in a mammoth casino setting built for Irvin Willat's new production for Paramount, "The Siren Call", featuring Dorothy Dalton, which is on view at the Murray theatre. 'Gore's Casino," as the place in known in the story, is a large interior, which occupied one-half of the largest enclosed studio stage at the Paramount studio. Adjoining the main casino is a hotel lobby setting. At the rear center of the casino is a stage, where the dancers and entertainers perform. At the left of the stage is a colossal stone fireplace, as wide at the side of an ordinary room. Next to the fireplace is the bar. On either side of the large hall are boxes, in the nature of private compartments, where the dancing girls and the fur-cloth habitues of tje place wine and dine and revel. Bizarre decorative gilded filigree work adds glamour to the general interior. It i3 in this casino that some of the most, colorful scenes of "The Siren Call' are enacted. Miss Dalton plays the role of Charlotte Woods, a dancehall girl, a type of role similar to the Yukon," the memorable picture by virtue of which she became a screenfavorite almost overnight. David principal male roles. WASHINGTON Wallace Reld. one of the leading plavers in '"Clarence," William de Mille's current production for Paramount, won't make any more experiments. Those acquainted "with the Hollywood studio of Famous Player 3Lasky are aware that a great number of cats torn cats, tabbies, pussy cats, kittens and countless other types aro constantly in evidence. They are also aware that Wally has a great inherent curiosity. He loves to experiment. Therefore, when an agent approached Wally recently and hinted that he had a new and excellent kind of makeup that was easy to put on and take off, Wally fell immediately. He applied the stuff and gave himself the up-and-down in a mirror. Altogether, he was much pleased. Then he start ed for the set. He passed a cat The feline suddenly lifted its nose and drew a deep breath. Immediately-it trailed Wally, meowing joyously. , A second cat joined the line of march and shortly a third took up the chase. When Wally. reached the set, he turned and saw no fewer than nine cats on his trail. When he walked they walked. When he sat down, they gathered nearby and lifted their voices in pleading chorus. After thinking for some reason for the cat convention, Wally lifted the new make-up box. Fretfully perusing the contents of the box he read the line: "Goose grease, from which this makeup is based, is easy to put on Richmond TODAY First National Presents DOROTHY PHILLIPS in a sensational 5-act romance "HURRICANE'S GAL" A story which starts in iew York and ends in the .mining camps of Alaska.

and remove, and does not injure the skin." However, the directions failed to state that goose grease has an odor all its own and that cats love goose grease even Krazy ates. Wally had'to ecrub for half an hour to take off the odor. And he won't experiment again. "Clarence," in which Wally is featured with -Agnes Ayres and May McAvoy is now showing at the Washington theatre. It is a delightful con-dy. . ' MURRETTE "It's never too late to learn!" That is what frienda of Constance Talmadge told her while she was trying to walk like a Chinese girl in "East Is West," the First National attraction now showing at the Murrette theatre here. But Constance was a pessimist and insisted that in the same class with poets and such who are- born not made the strenuous art of walking a la China girl must be inherited, not acquired. There not being any "can'ts" In the Talmadge family, however, Con stance made a start by ordering a dozen pair of Chinese shoes. This being done it was necessary to learn to use them, but she found it was one thing to be accustomed to wear the low sport heel on American shoes quite another matter to go absolutely heelless, and the last straw to be forced to take the mincing step of the Chinese girl. Slightly daunted but determined, she kept at it until the difficult feat was accomplished, under the approving eyes oi half a dozen Chinese ladies from the Washington Embassy, who commended her efforts highly. MURRAY VAUDEVILLE Replete with ,amusing features and well placed in the standard conception of modern vaudeville, the Murray s holiday bill this week takes rank among the foremost. Charles Rogers and company is one of the biggest laughing acts the Richmond public has had the opportunity to enjoy in many weeks.- The team of "ice-men" certainly take a position among vaudeville comedians that rivals the place of Ben Turpin and his cohorts cf the- screen. Many of the antics, too, recall the perplexities of the silver-sheet funsters, and are truely as comic. One of the team has the savage characteristics of Simon Legree, while his humble partner has the meek submissiveness, yet boisterous bravado, of the hero in "East Lynn, With Variations." They are aided by a young lady. One's respect for Darwin's theories are accelerated a degree by the performance of Norris' monkey builders. These little simians display an unusual mental state, despite the fact that PALACE TODAY HOOT ' GIBSON in a five-act western "SURE FIRE" Story by Eugene Manlove Rhodes.
