 With the typical Griffith touch which means with an excellence sell dom reached by any other director "A Romance of Happy Valley" unfolds beautiful love story. Its bacSg round is the peaceful country, where the quiet and orderly lives of those who till the soil is invaded to gather the material which lends the charm so prevalent in the story.
 It is primarily a love story-just a country girl and country boy-but the wholesomeness of their affection. their heartache at parting as the youth goes to the city to make his way in the world-and finally the wonderful strength of the love of the girl for the boy of her heart-a love which is sore ly tried by the adventures which befell the boy-and finally the happiness as sured by the pleasing end of the story have all been incorporated by the wizard of the screen in this drama which he has styles "a page from the book of life.''

Doug Fairbanks at Columbia

Douglas Fairbanks has always been a big favorite on the screen when 1t came to the real red -blooded, tsyo- listed manhood type of acting and those who saw him yesterday at the Columbia theater in his latest pro duction for United Artists, When The Clouds Roll By" decided for once and all that no one will be able to take his place, for he accomplished some thing which was essentially impossible in the minds of the majority of the audience.
 The theme of the picture, supersti tion, is an unusual one. cleverly handled and in which Doug mas many new stunts to do, which one would believe is impossible. since he has done, nearly everything under the sun. The pro- duction is d stupendous one with one unusually enormous exterior set, :, town which is flooded. something that has never been accomplished be- fore.
 This is che second inde ependently produced picture that Doug" has turned out for the United Artists cor poration an1 if all his bigger and better pictures are to be like this, fans are assured the unusual from the independent field.
 When the Clouds Roll By will be repeated at the Columbia today. A special jazz musical program, d Gau- mont News reel and & Strand comedy round out the program to perfection.

At The American

Dancing at the American proved so delightful last night for one party of popular Phoenix people who came in there after the theater that Mrs. Toft. urGer whose management the pretty home hhU dance hail is now conducted, was begged 10 allow the orchestra to continue for another hour. Of course, she was rleased, but at the same time very firm when she answered. No, it can't be done, you know the city ordinan King Brady closed the piano with 6 cnck exactly on the hour of 12. That is exactly the stand ard that Mir. and Mrs. Toft, who are in attendance at the hall at all times, are going to maintain.
 New ideas are to be developed from time to time, also. For example. the dansant of this afternoon has been arranged especially for the younger set of the city. Careful chaperonage will be maintained and particular at tention given to encourage only the patronage of those who really appre ci2te dancing of the best sort. Parents of some of the best known young people of tha city already appreciate this fact for the American this week has been the scene of several private parties who have found dancing there enjoyable in every respect.

Samaroff-Lankow Recital.

The enthusiasm displayed last even
ing at the joint recital of Olga Sama-
rolf, pianist, and Edward Lankow,
basso. given at Masonic Temple audi
torium, under the auspices of Miss
Laura Harlan. was sufficient to con-
vince even the most pessimiStic that
the evening concert is here to stay.
Although brilliant evening concerts
should always have place in the
capital of a great nation. for many rea-
sons they have been denied Washing
ton. Miss Harlan, the pioneer in this
direction, is therefore to be doubly
congratulated, first in undertaking
such a venture, and. secondly. heca"ee
of the largely increasing popularity
of the enterprise
Nine Samaroff needs no introduction
to a Washington audience. She is a
pianist of the first rank. Her playing
last evening was delightful and
brought forth enthusiasm such as is
seldom witnessed at concert. Her
manner was also pleasing. which was
a great asset to her art. Although re-
called so many times. the same smile
was evident at each recall as she
graciously responded with another
number. Her portion of the program
included: ''Ballade. A Flat" 'Nocturne.
F Sharp Major" 'Etude G. Flat Major"
Chopin Rhapsody No. 12," Liszt
Novelette,, d. Major" Schumann
iilCi hioANo, u iot, oi aims, NC
fiets dams TEau," Debussy: "Humo-
resque," Tschaikowsky; Ride of the
Valkyries," Wagner-Hutcheson.
Added for encoreS were Beethoven
Ruins of Athens" Busonis' Inter
mezZo,' "Etincelles." by Moszkowski
Hungarian Rhapsody of Liszt, No. Is, u
and the we'll known ID Flat Ealse" of
Chopin's.
Edward LaHkow is a newcomer to
Washington, but he lost little time in
singing himself into a place with the
capital. If the term bel canto' can
be used in the description of bass
voice, it will give the clearest concep-
tion of his mellow legato tones, sc
beautiful yet so rare in a deep bass
voice. Mr.. Lankow also has an un-
usually long range, twice singing a low
d with ease and once reaching a
piannissimo high F. His portion OF
the program included: aria, La
Juive." Hallevy; Deuce Dame Jolie.
Guillaume de Machault; "Jenues Fill.
lettes." J. B. Weckerlin; Sad Leaves,
Mussorgsky; The Bells of Novgorod.
THE Volga Song" old Russian foil
songs. while he added for encores
Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes,
old Kentucky Home and another
short "darkey" song.
George II. Wilson. the popular or
ganist of Foundry Church, this city
played MIR. Lankow'S Accompaniment
in most artistic manner, giving the
singer adequate support at all times.

Happiness

When all the nations. mad and
scrappy, were plying sword and
welding gun. we thought we
would be blithe and happy If
ever that fierce war were done.
We'd all get busy at our knit
ting, with quiet minds and
hearts serene. and when arrived
the time for quitting. we'd burn
d little gasoline. To old-time
ways in peace returning we'd
soon forget the fields OF gore.
and by the lamp. at evening
burning. we'd delve again in
helpful lore. 50 far our hopes
have all been broken. and ire has
reigned where love should
dwell; the words of hatred still
are spoken. and still the crazed
disturbers yell. But now, me-
thinks. the clouds are breaking,
this new year bids us hope again,
and pretty soon We'll all be wax
ing to peace on earth, good will
to men. We've had enough OF
wild emotions. that shook and
Jared us to the soul. of elo-
quence in frothing oceans, that
bore us to no useful goal. 50
let us one and all determine to
be as happy as we can, avoid
vain strife, forget the German,
