MIR ERETTE

The internal disturbances of certain
romantic and ebullient South Amer
lean republics, which have for years
furnished the American press and
humorous writer's with material for ex-
citing dispatches or clever, humorous
discussions, were placed in the hall OF
fame by the plays of the late Richard
Harding Davis, who was virtually their
literary spokesman.
THE Dictator" which comes to the
Murrette theatre Sunday as a Para
mount offering with Wallace Reid in
the star role, is one of this type by
This author 1t is the play which VIII
lie Collier made famous on the stage
and one in which Mr.. Davis paints an
exciting picture of volcanic life in the
Latin-American continent.
Walter Woods, an experienced see
narist, translated the play to screen
terms, which meant modifying it some
what, bringing certain incidents down
to date and generally applying the
modern brush to the canvas, which IS,
however, still fresh and alluring.
Lila Lee, leading woman, has the
role of Juanita, dainty daughter of DR..
Riyas, a self-styled 'liberator," played
by Theodore Kosloff. Mr.. Reid, as
Brooke Travers, falls in love with her
and then the trouble begins. From
Los Angeles the scene shifts to tiny
I.atin-American republic where a bit
ter war between rebels and regulars
is waged. James Cruze, a veteran
Paramount director, handled the mega
phone.
Movie acting is certainly a soft job!
F'r instance, all Rodolph Valentino
had to do for a solid month was to get
out in front of a mean bull and wave
a red cape in his face. Easy - sure,
- but Mr. Valentino wasn't bothered
with a tremendous lot of company dur
ing the time required for these warm
and interesting scenes.

MURRAY


Jules Verne's fascinating novel,
Matthias Sandorf," has been translat-
ed from the French into the universal
language of the motion picture. 1t is
called "The Isle of Zorda" and will be
shown Sunday at the Murray theatre.
It's story of adventure, mystery and
romance is told against a shifting pan
Drama of beautiful European scenery
Monte Carlo-the magnificence of its
Casino, its tropical gardens, its won
derful sea view, are striking con-
trast to the slave market in Northern
Africa and the Oriental dancing ba-
zaar and harem. Exceedingly pic
turesque is the village with its quaint,
narrow streets; the rugged seacoast;
the fishing village; the prison on the
mountainside.
Southern France and Northern At
rica provided the scenery for THE
Isle of Zorda,' a French production
for Pathe by Louis Nalpas. 1t Is en-
acted by splendid cast of European
stars.

MURRAY VAUDEVILLE

The Four Volunteers male comedy /
quartet which has found favor on the
Keith circuit for. years will be the
headline feature of the new bill open
ing at the Murray tomorrow, matinee
for the first half The old saying of
1T never rains but it pours" is also
applicable to the present day desire
of vaudeville artists to get into the
Surprise act" band wagon which by
the way grows in volume at the insist
ant demand of the theatre-going pub
lie.
The latest acquisition to this de-
cisive popular victory won by the
vaudeville fans in a recent boni-fide
contest is "The Volunteers" a musical
novelty offering from the pens of
George Botsford and Jean Harvez, two
exceptionally well known and remark
ably clever writer's of fiction and auth
ors of many successful vaudeville play
let's. Heretofore the offerings created
by this duo of playwrights have al
ways favored the so-called weaker sex
inasmuch as the dominant character
was female. IN "The Volunteers"
they have completely ignored the wom-
an part and builded an act in which
all Of the four parts are assayed by
males.
Another interesting feature booked
Is the act of Bell and Carron, dance
exponents who have been featured for
the past two seasons in all the prom
inent Revues in New York city. Cap
man and Capman are also on this bill
with their laughing absurdity entitled
ION A Sea of Fun" also Heron and
Ornsman in a blackface skit called
ION And Off"
Maxmillion and Martini billed as
THE Worlds Worst Magicians" will
be one OF the features opening Thurs
day. They have a burlesque magic act
which fairly teens with laughs. Faber
and Bernet have a skit termed ION
And Off The Stage" which gives the
audience an insight of what happens
Back Stage" Joe Regan comes with
singing sketch entitled Irish Mo-
ments," in which he sings the songs
of "auld Erin" The dancing portion
will be taken care of by Bernice Kim
ball and Ray Conan, in their act "The
Dance Xentrique," with a few saxo-
phone means interpolated.
Quite naturally an audience invar-
iably looks forward to seeing pretty
costumes in an act of this character,
they most certainly will not be dis
appointed in this necessary essential
for Miss Kimball might be termed par
ticularly fussy as regards this detail.
Their winning personalities, smart,
snappy dances and perfect presenta-
tion of "The Act Ventrique" makes the
offering one of the real bright spots
on any bill besides furnishing COM
plete enjoyment and delightful enter
tainment to their audience.

INTERNATIONAL PAPER
WILL SUPPLY POWER
Some Mills in u. S. Likely to
Be Abandoned.

The International Paper Company is
planning to enter new field, the
production of hydro-electric energy for
public sale. This will probably mean
the elimination of several paper mills
in this country as the water power sites
will be needed. Construction work on
the first of the hydro-electric plants
has been under way for more than a
year.
The first plant, that .at Sherman
Island. near the source Of the Hudson
River, should be in operation In the
early part OF 1923, with an initial in
stallment Of 10000 horsepower. Origin
ally it was intended that the plant
should furnish power to adjacent mills
but 1t was decided later to increase
the capacity and sell additional power.
Contracts have been made already for
the sale of electric energy from this
plant. which will cost more than $500
OO0
The company win not reduce it's
paper tonnage. but as paper can be
manufactured cheaper in Canada the
mills there will be operated.

Wiping Out Our Vast War Loans

While the European governments are vainly
casting about for methods to reduce their war
loans and to put their economic households in or.
der, the United States has steadily kept on retir-
ing obligations until today, within little more
than three years after the signing of the armis-
tice it has outstanding only $17,000,0 100000, as
compared with S25, 1926, 297, OO0
The United States government advanced
about $11,500,0 100000, counting principal and
accrued interest, to the allied governments Set
ting this sum, which must be applied to the re-
duction of our own debt against the remain
ing $4,000 100000, we have only about
$5,50O000,000 to be raised by taxation to wipe
out our entire war debt.
All the Liberty loan issues and the Victory
bonds were drawn so that they would be retired
within 1928 and 1947, on the theory that the
nation would be able to liquidate the debt within
% years, or at the rate of about $1,000000,00O
annually, exclusive of the repayment of loans by
the allied governments.
Financial observers say that the government
has been able to retire the war obligations at a
faster rate than first participated The govern
