LOEW'S PALACE
"EOOlish MatrOnS"

Foolish Matrons," the latest Maur
ice Tourneur photoplay production,
based on the novel by Dom Byrne and
featuring a brilliant cast that includes
Hobart Bosworth, Doris May, Mildred
Manning, Wallace Macdonald. Betty
Schade, Kathleen Kirkham and many
others, will be presented at Loew's
Palace Theater this afternoon for the
full week as the featured attraction Of
an exceptional program.
Foolish Matrons" is a brilliant and
unusual screen revelation of an cpl
sode in the career Of three modern
society matrons by which is revealed,
through the powerful and unmistak-
able genius Of Mr.. Tourneur, the ef-
feet on three familiar types of modern
woman of the great modern Babylon
New York. Aside from the absorbing
and profound drama Of the produc-
ton, II is marked by settings of ex-
tremely luxurious and gorgeous va
riety and It is remarkable, further
more, for the introduction OF Hobart
Bosworth in a role OF an altogether
unusual type for this noted player.
In developing this vivid and extraor-
binary drama of modern existence, Mr..
Tourneur has conceived the great
American metropolis as mighty
alembic into which he losses, as II
were, three familiar types of modern
womanhood-one extremely selfish
one supremely pleasure-loving, and
one self -sacrificial.
In amazing and enthralling fashion,
he reveals how the great city, with its
mental, moral and physical stresses,
reduces humanity to its essential ele-
ments and strips away, in the process,
the sham and pretense that SO fire.
quently camouflages human existence
1t is an intense and altogether diff
ferent character study and IL reveals
Mr.. Bosworth. heretofore an actor Of
rugged, outdoor roles, in the part Of a
New York physician who passes
through a strange moral metamor-
phosis that refines and glorifies his
nature.
In keeping with the exceptional ma
ture of the production, the program
will be supplemented by an eXcep-
tional array of added screen and mu-
steal features that will make it one
of the most distinctive showings of
the week in Washington.
Director Cannon, of the Palace SYM
phony Orchestra, will contribute a
splendid overture selection under his
personal direction.

and topical subjects.
"Over the Wire" depicts in wildly

LOEW'S COLUMBIA
"The Lost Romance"

1.-The Lost Romance" William De
Miles vivid and soul-stirring pictur-
ization of Edward Knoblock's compel
ling study of the romantic equation IN
modern matrimony, In which Lois
Wilson, Conrad Nagel and Jack Holt
are prominently featured, will begin
weeks engagement at Loew's Co
lumbia Theater this afternoon. The
supporting cast includes, additionally,
Fontaine lie Rue, Maym Kelso, Lib
liam Leighton, Clarence Gsldart, Clar-
ence Burton and many others.
In this production Edward Knob,
lock, author of such great stage sue
cesses as "Kismet," Marie Odile.
Tiger, Tiger" "Milestones" and
"One," propounds the dramatic query.
What is romance? In The Lost Ro-
nance" he reveals the trutsm that
dreaming youth holds one idea of ro
nance, but that more mature human
development finds romance in the
dramatic development Of life in all
things.
Producer DeMille has given the pic
ture an extraordinarily vivid develop
ment in a setting OF rare and opulent
beauty. Miss Lois Wilson is cast In
the role of young matron who finds
matrimony, even when blessed with
children, woefully unromantic at best
To her, the word romance is sum
med up in the person of a young but
fa'>1us explorer, unprecedented by
Jack Holt, who offers her not only
his name, his love. but the dreamy
fantasy that she regards as the true
romance.
A clear-thinking relative Of the girl
is introduced as the elderly goddess
from the machine who. by n mere
trick, leads the disillusioned young
matron to believe that her one child
has been lost or kidnapped.
One night of agony as n bereaved
mother is sufficient to reveal to the
young matron that for all her prior
beliefs, the real romance Of her hfs
Is conferred about that little child and
its father, her husband, portrayed by
Conrad Nagel.
Although this powerful and unusual
DeMille-Knoblock master.p picture con
stitutes the featured offering Of the
program at the Columbia today and
all week, there are number Of sup
Elemental short-length screen and mu
steal attractions OF the same brilliant
standard that lend color and variety
to one Of the best bills this playhouse
has offered its patrons this summer.

Three-quarters of the audience II
every motion.picture theater is made
up of sophisticated photoplay fans
who see from two to six pictures
every week.
The average "fan" is wise to all the
time -honored tricks of the screen. He
knows most of the situations by heart.
1t grows increasingly hard to occasion
him a thrill or laugh with the meth.
DDS that were successful even year
ago. The fans want something NEW.
They want stars that act like regu-
lar human beings, plots that retain
some of the illusions of reality, titles
that tickle the imagination, charac-
tiers that do not move about like
wooden marionettes manipulated by
an unseen finger.
VIII Rogers has grinned his way
into the hearts of millions of men and
women who make up this "nard-boil-
