EMPIRE.

Irwin Wfllat, who dircted Lila Lee in "A Daughter of the Wolf" her latest picture at the Empire theatre today, is one of the best known di- rectors of today. Before he took up the megaphone he was a camera ex- pert and his remarkable knowledge of the camera, lighting effects, etc., is a valuable aid to him in his direct orial work.
 Mir. Wnlat also directed Miss Lee in her last production, "Rustling q Bride" Perhaps his most notable work was the Paramount-Artcraft Sy yecial, False Faces" which was Erected by MT. Willat under the su- pervision of Thomas H. Ince, and starred Henry Walthall.

BUILD PETROGRAD 4r FOR FIEAa

Goldwyn erected a duplicate of the Russian City, Petrograd, as fast as the BoIsheviks destroyed the real thing The production for which this city was built will be an elaborate one and stars Geraldine Farrar and Lou Tellegen.
 The first ink1ing that is given as to the nature of the new Farrar pie ture Is in communication from Culver City which says that one of the main settings of the production will be a. street scene in PetroErad, and this street is being built at the Goldwyn studios. It is perhaps the most ambitious setting yet designed by Hugo Ballin, Goldwyn's art direc- tor. The approximate cost of rnak- ing the buildings for the scene is something over S35,00O
 Not only from standpoint of lux ury in properties are exhibitors promised an unusual production in the new Farrar picture. For indeed this photoplay will be the result Of cooperation among the biggest minds; in the Goldwyn organization. Also 1t will have an unusual interest because of the first joint appearance of Ger a1dine F'arrar and Lou TeIIegen. Frank Lloyd, the man who has been accustomed to making such preten- tious screen plays as Les Miserabres-. and "The Tale of Two Cities" has di- rected the production.
 Miss Farrar herself has said that she believes that her new picture will be the masterpiece of her screen ca reer and those on the ground at Gull yer City agree that her opportunities in the coming production will be of unusual proportions

Tn '"The Microbe" starring Viola Dana, there ts q dream scene calling for forbidden Door of Despair"
 Tho "sct' for this scene was the despair of the technical department at Metros Hollywood studios until Director Henry Otto hit upon the novel idoa of having D. Anthony TIuszky of the art department paint tho entire seting-virtually q huge ba ckground-in oils
 This Tauszky did, fmparting to it all the exotic poster effects he could m -Ster.
 By double exposure the actors play their parts before this picturesque background, and the result is an eff feet that visualizes the phantasna- g8ria of a dream.
