WASHINGTON.


Dorothy Dalton, who is to appear at
the Washington Theatre, Wednesday
and Thursday in her new picture,
BLACK is White" recently astonished
the New York critics and public by
scoring an emphatic hit in the leading
roie in "Aphrodite," the big Egyptian
spectacle and sensation of the current
season. 1t was regarded as nothing
short OF marvellous that Miss Dalton,
whose experience on the speaking
stage is extremely limited, should
meet the exacting requirements Of
"Aphrodite" so admirably and gave a
performance that few legitimate stars
could equal. Outside of short engage
ments early in her career in stock and
vaudeville, the pretty actress has al
ways devoted herself exclusively to
pictures.
The idea that the stage is much
more rigid in his demands than motion
pictures is fallacious one" said Miss
Dalton recently. Acting before the
capnera, where there are no clever
lines to help you over difficult places,
where no friendly audience applauds
you. and where every gesture and
facial expression must be exaggerated
to Just the exact degree, is a difficult
task, I assure you. For instance, one
would go far before discovering

Vitagraph has provided Earle Will
liams with a splendid supporting cast
for Captain Swift" which will be
shown at the Murray theater the last
half of the week. While two of it's
members, Florence Dixon, the leading
woman, and Adelaide Prince, who has
an important role, are comparative
newcomers to the screen, the other
members are we'll known as capable
actors. Several are English, which Is
particularly appropriate, as the play is
typically British
Miss Dixon, who plays opposite Mr..
Williams, is prominent member of
the famous Ziegfeld Follies and, while
favorite on tho spoken stage, only
recently has taken up motion picture
work. That she has so quickly won
the distinction of leading lady evil
dences her ability. Miss Prince is
now playing leading role in Adam
and Eve" at the Longacre theater in
