Washington to Be Shown
Broadway Film Triumph
Fox Production of 'Over the Hill" Begins Car
rick Run Tonight.

In September. 1890, William Fox.
motion picture producer. engaged
a New York theater for one weeks
time to present a new feature pic
ture on which he and his army OF
assistants had been working indus
triously for the preceding four
months.
The engagement on Broadway was
something in the way Of pro-
ducing experiment; for while Mr..
Fox knew that he had in his sub
ject something that from the stand
point Of power and beauty could
hold its own with any similar pic
ture subject ever devised. it's pres
enation at a time when Broadway
the worlds chief theatrical mart
was surfeited with gorgeous and
magnificent theatrical productions,
did not augur very well for marked
success of a production which. de-
void of all lavish scenic investiture
and artificiality, rested its claim to
greatness solely on. the simplicity
and human interest of its story.
1t is one of the most striking
incidents of New York's theatrical
history that the unpretentious pro-
duction of Mr.. Fox. whose faith In
1t alone Oas marked him since as
a very shrewd analyst of what will
win the public. brought his produc-
tion into Broadway unheralded and
unsung-and there II still is, at this
late date. turning people away daily
and nightly.
The picture which has made this
extraordinary record is "Over the
HILL" and 1t was made at the in
sistence Of Mr.. Fox who had never
forgotten the great enjoyment he
derived as a boy when reading the
Farm Ballads' of Will Carleton,
on which the picture Is based.
The picture, since II started its
memorable career on Broadway.
has delighted so many hundreds Of
thousands of people from every
walk of life, and has earned so
many iattering encomiums from
magazine and newspaper writer's
that 1t may have earned the right
to be considered as the long-await-
ed great American play. Judging
solely from the legion of admirers
that it has won in New York City
alone, the photoplay 10 certainly to
be stamped as great.
It, is now for people residing
elsewhere than in New York City
and its environs to, pass Judgment
and decide for themselves. The op-
portunity will be afforded local
theatergoers tonight when "over
the Hill' win be presented at, the
Shubert-Garrick Theater. As II Is
the intention Of the producer that
this picture shall not be confined
to motion picture theaters but will
take its place on the leading
stages of the biggest cities as
among the greatest theatrical at
fractions. this will be your only
opportunity to witness over the
