the attraction at the Washington
theatre for two days beginning Fri
day at once suggests the gambling
story. Those who see the photoplay.
however, will discover that the gamb.
ling interest is by no means para
mount.
The story, written by Earl Mitchell,
has to do with the refinement in the
caldron of adversely of a youngster
born in unhappy environment in order
that he may become a big, strong,
outstanding character in the everyday
life of an average community.
Conway Tearle, star of "a Wide
Open Town." has always been greatly
admired by photoplay devotees for
the reason that he is rarely, if ever,
seen in the idyllic roles which are so
often entrusted to male screen stars.
In "A Wide-Open Town" the character
he portrays is none which will ap-
peal to every man and woman who
has learned from bitter experience
that expected perfection in human
nature scarcely ever materializes. 1t
is a typical Tearle characterization in
that the star stands out first and fore
most as an actor and not so much be-
cause a kind Providence has given
him comely face and figure and the

picture, starring Betty Compson, to
be seen at the Richmond theatre.
1t is by means OF this idea-playing
upon the superstition OF the guilty
woman-that Miss Compson, in the
role of the faithful wife OF the accused
man. succeeds In obtaining a confess
ion from a vampire. whom she con-
fronts with the gruesome reminders
of her crime. The picture shows the
danger of circumstantial evidence IN
homicidal cases.
No stronger play has been produced
than this. William T. Carleton plays
opposite the star and heads an unusu-
ally strong supporting cast.

MURRAY

Before his entrance into films John
ME Walker, who co-stars with Edna
Murphy in "Play Square" the Fox
production, which is playing at the
Murray theatre, was on the speaking
stage, and tells an amusing story
about an actor in one of the road
companies he travelled with who,
though an excellent actor, was more
or less addicted to the flowing bowl,
