coming elections, both primary and gen.

man and woman qualified to register
should not fail to do so and see to it
that his or her name is correctly en-

is desire on the part of the masses,
regardless of party affiliations, to vote
for "Amerca First" and her institu-

by illustrations of extremely radical

Charlie Chaplin in New
Version of Carmen"

A new edition OF Charlie Chaplin's 5
most famous travesty, his BUR
leque on Carmen" opened what prom
ised to be a record weeks run at
Crandalps Theater yesterday after
noon before capacity audiences.
The "Burlesque On Carmen" is one
OF the most pretentious pictures in
which Chaplin has ever been presented
as the individual star, and the only
one in which he has ever abandoned
his celebrated Gargantuan footgear
and funny little derby hat. In this
more colorful type OF screen satire,
he dons the bizarre uniform OF a
captain in the Spanish Omelette Bri-
gade, under the name of Darn Hos
iery, in palpable burlesque of the fa-
miliar role of Don Jose. In this gro
tesque makeup the million-dollar
comedian is given exceptional oppor-
tunity to display his whole bag OF
tricks. He introduces, among innum-
cradle other laughable things, a
most extraordinary series OF drill
maneuvers and an entirely new stand
ard of military etiquette.

"A Mormon Maid"
Featuring Mae Murray

"a Mormon Maid" with Mae Muir

n weeks engagement at Moore's
Strand Theater, starting yesterday, Is
one or the best photodramatic orer-
ings given in Washington In many
months, capsldered purely from the
viewpoint OF dramatic development,
atmosphere and stirring, convincing
action. IL has a great additional ad-
vantage in that IL is a bold statement
OF alleged conditions in the Mormon
church In years gone by.
The story concerns u daughter or
a settler whose party Is rescued by
Mormons when attacked by Indians.
After living in the Mormon city for
two years her father was, brought
before the council and told that he
would have 10 take another wife.
Threatened with having his daughter
married to a Mormon unless he con-
sented, the father yields, with the
daughter, Mae Murray, unknown to
her father, agreeing to become a
Mormons wife in order TO save him.
When the father arrives with his
second wife the girls mother kills
herself. A leader, who has been
planning to marry the girl, forces
her TO the altar, where she. by a
lie compels her release. Following
her escape from the ceremony the
