titled Everyday" which Mary H.

thrilled by the entrance of girl-a
seeming idealist, whose ideas seem
impractical for the living of every
day life. Her father is strong man
whose notion of success Is as defi-
mite as hers-but her mother. who has
seldom said anything. for herself:

daughter is merely living out the
principles she was taught as child,
and in the end helps to free the girl
from another everyday existence.
The cast includes Tallulah Bank
-head, Minnie Dupree, Lucille Watson,
Frank Sheridan, Mary .Donnelly, VIM

A SPANISH FALSTAFF.

4 CHARACTER in the play Spanish
- Love" that at once engages the
eve and presently captures also the
keen interest is Pepuso, the buster
ing, boastful, arrogant native son" Of
the proyince of Murcia, who displays
his patriotism by wearing the old pic
turesaue costume of the land: swear
ing both by it's traditions. and by word
of mouth, and defying its laws.
In the phrase of the day. Pepuso
might be called 100 per cent Muir
cian." 1t is a we'll drawn character,
of a type that has always been pop
.,lar on the stage and belongs to that
gallant company Of witty blusterers
of which Falstaf will always remain
the leading figure.
Pepuso. of whatever nationality he
may be, is a great lover of maxims
and proverbs. The Spanish have been
phrases, through all their history, that
the dramatist had ut'1ittle difficulty
in finding proyerb to fit almost any
idea that might come into Pepuso's s
mind. And most of the proverbs of
Spain have "a vigor and thrust not
pOSSesseQ Wy the pioNeFoS VI oIhet

When an Englishman says, "a man
is known by the company he keeps.
the Spaniard says: He that lies down
with dogs gets up with fleas," or "he
that does with wolves learns to howl" "
The Spanish counterpart. of out of
the frying pan into the fre,S is HE
ran from the bull and fell into the
river" Where we say of a hypo-
critical man that butter would not
melt in his mouth the Spaniard says:
"The cat is friendly. but scratches" or
"The devil turks behind the cross"
So numerous and various are the
nroyerbs Of Spain, indeed, that for
many Of them we have, in n<English, no
corresponding proverb. Here. for In
stance, are a few Spanish sayings that
are hard to match exactly in our
tongue: Man is fire, woman tow and
the devil comes and blows; "A guest

ONE of the breeziest. brightest and
most laughable of the big-time
vaudeville acts of the season is the
moving picture satire called "Loca-
tion," which will be shown here this
week by the Leon Kimberly-Helen
Page Company. 1t presents. in an
amusing way, some of the difficulties
in making screen productions. and
shows why, often, the director is a
smaller creature in their creation than
the star. who likes to have things her
way. 1t is, supposed to show how a
picture feature is made, and travesties
all the thrills Of "rescuing the wound
ed hero" and the happy ending" 1t
comes to Washington heralded with a
veritable flood of praise from the
vaudeville theaters where it has been
