WASHINGTON

Perhaps the most remarkable storm
scene ever pictured on the screen. is
that which spreads terror in, and prac-
tically destroys an entire village erect
ed for ''The Old Homestead" a new
Paramount picture directed with sig
nal success by James Cruze. Twenty
powerful wind machines, aided by a
fire engine, were employed In this ex-
ceptionally realistic elemental disturb
ance.
The storm that wrecks the town of
Ganzey is a humdinger. The village
was a good sized one Of 40 or more
houses and all were erected for de
struction by the hurricane and deluge.
Their roofs are blown of, their shut
tiers torn away, and their chimneys
fall. But the old homestead stands
like rock, symbolic of the indestruc.
liability of the greatest institution o.
civilization, the home!
Twenty wind machines and a four
inch pipe line with fire engine pump
| ing the water from a nearby river
over the distance of three quarters
of a mile, formed part of the equip
ment for producing the greatest storm
| scene that has ever been filmed. Ac
cording to experts, this Paramount pic
ture which comes to the Washington
theatre Sunday, entailed a create,

RICHMOND

William 8. Harris latest Paramount
picture, Three Word Brand" which
will be shown at the Richmond theatre
Sunday is notable in many ways, one
of the most interesting features be-
ing that Jane Novak is leading woman.
Miss Novak has appeared opposite
the western star before, but never to
better advantage than in this instance.
Her appeal, beauty and furnaces,
coupled with her womanly sweetness
serve to render her a particularly eff
fective figure in the wild scenes that
ensue as a result OF the efforts of a
band OF cattle rustlers to ruin a firm
of ranchers in Utah. The offenders are
WORKING hand in glove with cse-tain
political powers, and only after several
thrilling contests are the rufxians
worsted.
Another feature of interest iEs the
fact that Mr.. Hart plays three Distinct
roles in the picture. AS father ca twin
boys he is trapped by Indians in a pro-
logue to the story and kills himself
rather than submit to capturtA after
Having sent the two boys safely away.
Later he appears as Three Word
brand, part owner OF great cattle
ranch-one OF the twins-and then as
the Governor Of the state, the other
twin. Double exposure OF peri et,t quail
ity makes the illusion remarkably eff
fective.

A romance OF the orange groves Of
southern California viii be shown on
the screen of the Murray theatre next
week It's title is "Smudge," with
Charles Ray in the starring role 1t
is released by First National.
AS Stephen Stanton, young and
poppy college graduate, Ray has a
peculiarly appropriate role, and the
picture is one of the best in which
the star has ever appeared. The story
was written by Rob Wagner, famous
for his motion picture articles in the
Saturday Evening Post, and the cast
includes Ora Carew, Charles. K.
French, Florence Oberfe, ]. P. Lock
ney. Blanche Rose, Lloyd Bacon and
Ralph Mccullough.
Miss Carew plays opposite Ray, this
being the first time that she has ap'
peared as his leading woman.
The scenes are laid in the little
town of Citrona, which is located il
southern California, and which is the
center of the orange and lemon indus
try. The camera has caught vast Wis
tas of orange groves giving the pro
duction a pictorial background o.
great beauty.
Upon returning home from collegt

New Chairman

Richmond, Va, May 29.-tSpeeiaD
Announcement was made today by
Governor f. Lee Trinkle that Henry

now of Maryland, had accepted ap-
pointment at mis- hands as chairman
of the Virginia State Highway Com
mission with a salary of $12,500 a

fective July /: Mr.. Shirley is now
roads and sanitary engineer for
Baltimore County, with headquarters
at TOwson, Maryland. He is regard
ed by highway experts as probably
the leading road. builder and high
way engineer in the United States.
Governor Trinkle, who is frankly
gratified at the acceptance of his
appointment, said today: 81 think
unqustionably Shirley is the biggest
road man in this country. From
the standpoint of an executive IN
road building he appears to be as
good. if not better than the best. |
do not speak at random, but have
reached this conclusion after mi
mute and exhaustive study of road
work all over the United States, be-
ginning at the Pacific coast and
coming East ! feel that Virginia is
to be congratulated o' er its good
fortune in securing the services of
an engineer, who, as a road builder,
enjoys a national reputation"
Under provisions of that act Of
the recent General Assembly re-
organizing the Virginia State High
way De partment the chair
man of the State Highway Com
mission will, in reality, be the state
highway commissioner, the actual
head and governing director of the
entire highway department. As
such, his Importance to the State
will probably be second to that of
no one employee of the Common
wealth. Governor Trinkle believes
that Mr.. Shirley will demonstrate al
most Immediately the wisdom of his
choice.
So important did the General AS
sembly regard the selection of the
state road head for Virginia that
the question of salary was left open,
the Governor to exercise his own dis
erection in this matter, absolutely
unhampered The salary settled
upon by the Executive and accepted
by Mr.. Shirley is said to be less than
that now enjoyed by the engineer,
who was doubtless actuated in his
acceptance by the dignity of the new
office, the fact that ne is himself
Virginian, and the opportunity for
