AMUSEMENTS

WASHINGTON Not the least interesting scenes in Emory Johnson's great firemen's mel odrama "The Third Alarm," now at the Washington theatre are those which open the door to the fire houses and reveal just what goes on within. The fire Bcenes in "The Third Alarm" are of such magnitude and dramatic power that it was necessary to press into service more than a dozen companies, including engines, hook and ladder, hose carriages, chemicals and other units that go to make up the tremendous turn-out of apparatus in the big episodes. The scenes that show how the fire men live, how they leap to their posts when the gong clangs, how they care for the horses and later when the departments are motorized how they keep the apparatus in tip top condition ready for action at an instant's notice. While these episodes are of the utmost interest to adults, they have tremendous appeal to children, to whom the land beyond the doors of the fire house is. one of enchantment. . RICHMOND Phyllis Haver, who plays the leading feminine role in Mack Sennett's newest five-reel super-comedy, "Mar ried Life," playing Thursday and Fri-j day at the Richmond theatre, came to the screen after making her. first public appearances in a motion picture playhouse. It happened at a residential photo-play house In Los Angeles, where the orchestra consisted of Phyllis. She was the pianist and her weekly (or, as she spelled it, just coming out from under high school influences, "w-e-a-k-1 y"), stipend was twenty dollars. It was her engrossing duty to follow the action of the plot upon the screen and supply the "atmospheric" music, mostly rag-time and popular songs of the day. She says she held her job till her repertoire gave out. She only knew about twenty compositions of the desired kind and when the boss himself became acquainted with them, he asked her for variety. Whereupon, aiming to please, the immature Phyllis played the sad music in the merry places and the merry music in the sad places, but somehow, this didn't please the manager who fired her. Meanwhile the "screen" had entered the life of Phyllis who had no difficulty in securing a "test" at the Mack Colds spread After Exposure Take Hills HEN colds are going the rounds and la grippe and pneumonia are prevalent, you must exercise precaution.

She passed the test with great and contoured glory and became a Sennett Bathing Girl. Native gifts in acting added to her natural gifts of grace and beauty promoted her to small roles and thence to large ones until now Miss Phyllis liaver contemplates starship without so much as a blink of her pretty grey eyes.

Dempster three act play, will mark the return to the speaking stage of Eugene O'Brien and will be presented at the Murray theatre Feb. 5th by George M. Gatts.

Mrs. Thomas Whiffen as his principal sup port and surrounded by a cast such as Vivia Ogden, Helen Weir, Ann Winston, Peggy Whiffee, Duncan Penwarden, Homer Barton, Frank Herbert and others, it is not strange the play has met with such record breaking croTras everywhere.

Reservations for the opening week can be made at the box office and seats will be placed on sale Friday morning. MURRETTE Insurance agents may be in the same class as book agents, but there are at least two people in the world who would welcome the sight of the insurance agent prepared to write a reasonable policy on the most valuable piece of property they ever possessed. They are Miss Jane Murfin of Los Angeles, Calif., and Laurence Trimble, of Santa Monica,, also California. This property they would like to insure is a dog. Rather a famous dog, too, for he is strongheart, the police dog. who gained a place as one of the most famous stars in the world in his first motion picture production. "The Silent Call." Since, then his value has been greatly increased by 'Brawn of the North," a First National attraction, which is being shown at the Murrette theatre. Potentially this dog's starring capacity runs close to $1,000,000 a year. Figuring his starring career conservatively he will be able to earn that breathe yomei Ml It kills catarrh germs.

amount for at least, five years, whicli gives him a value of at least $5,000,000. With this earning ability practically assured. If he lives, neither Miss Murfin, his owner, of Mr. Trimble, his mentor and director, are looking for insurance for anywhere near this amount. A policy which would cover onlv a part of the loss If this dog star should die of be incapacitated during the course of a production would be welcome say one for $150,000 or even $100,000. But there are numerous bars to a policy that would be insurance against such a loss. In the first place, there are very few people who really know anything about dogs. Their chances of. life and sickness and accidents have never been studied in a way the same risks in regard to human being3 have been. For that reason there is no basis for computing a premium rate. . Young oysters enjoy only 48 hours life as moving creatures; then they settle down lor life.
