District who enlisted in the great

armed conflicts. The Stanley Com
pany OF America and the Stanley.
Crandall Company of Washington
operating the Earle, have lent
every energy toward assembling a
program for this special benefit

able amusement value.
Despite the fact that the regu-
larly booked bill will be augmented
by special attractions both without

prices will not be advanced.

the memorial fund is being raised
pursuant to act of Congress and

temple will house public concerts
given by the military bands of the
nation, and on it's ceiling will be in
scribed the names of the 535 who
made the great sacrifice. and in
its cornerstone will repose the
names of the $4,000 who enlisted.

VARIETY
In GLORIA'S
NEW ONE

Spectacular and historic scenic
effects help make '"The Love of
Sunya" Gloria Swanson's first
United Artists picture, which is
being held over for a second
week at Loew's Columbia, start
ing tomorrow afternoon.
The scenes in 1.-THE Love of
Sunya" range from a poor mans
hut to a rich mans mansion.
There are reproductions Of the
famous, Opera Comique. a temple
in the Himalayan Mountains and
striking scenes from. Paris, New
York and a small suburban city.
This variety of scenes is re.
quired because Of the. five charac.
terizations Miss Swanson portrays
in the photoplay. Three Of these
are played in America, one in
France and the other in Egypt.
She Is seen in the incarnation of
an Egyptian girl. Centuries later
she visualizes a modern young
girl. Next she is found in the
characterization of the tempera-
mental opera singer who capti-
Yates Paris. Then she portrays
school teacher, and. finally, the
wife of a millionaire.
Perhaps, the most interesting
scenes to those who are familiar
with Paris are the reproductions
of the Opera Comique in the
French capital. Miss Swanson
desired to make motion pictures
of this historic structure. for use
in "The Love of Sunya," but OF.
ficials explained they could not
permit this. So the star had
photographs made from which

duced exact duplicates for the
