 CHATTERTON IN
 SCANDAL LADY
Photoplay Founded d on London Stage Drama

 Dynamites Customs
 How she upsets tradition, dyna- mites hidebound customs, and fin- ally sacrifices her own happiness for that of another woman in the aristocratic set constitute the theme of the drama.
 The story is of the smart Eng fish drawing type centering about an actress who through un- expected circumstances becomes engaged to the son of a British peer. Parental opposition resolves itself into strategy and she is asked to remain in the home Of the aristocratic family in order that she may accustom herself to the ways of society Instead so- ciety accustoms itself to her.
 Variety of Characters
 The characters vary from mon- ocled lords and naughty dowagers to the droll cockney father of the actress.
 Elaborate replicas of British manor houses and other effective staging mark the production. The tennis match sequence is close copy of such an affair in England
 The supporting cast includes Ba- sil Rathbone, Nance ONeil, Fred Kerr and Mackenzie Ward, who played in the original London stage presentation; Fife Ellser, Ralph Forbes, who is Ruth Chatterton's husband, Cyril Chadwick, Moon Carroll, Edgar Norton and Robert Bolder.

wedding before the young bride
saw her future home. Washington
had just been elected to the House
of BurgesseS SO the young couple
remained in Williamsburg while
that Chamber remained in session
until May. When Washington did
return with his wife to his beau
tiful estate on the Potomac, the
place became home to both of
them for the remainder of their
lives.
Washington's marriage was
singularly happy one. In Martha
he found all those Womanly quail
tiles which we're needed to supple
ment those of his own character.
Who can measure the value of the
encouragement she must have CIV
en- him during the weary days of
the Revolution? Certainly she was
always a faithful and devoted wife,
and the Father of his Country
owed a great deal to her for the
measure of success he attained.
Among the anniversaries of the
many important dates in the life
of George Washington, this one of
his wedding holds an element of
human interest which no doubt is
appreciated by all his countrymen.

GEORGE WASHINCTOWS WEDDING
When the young Virgnian met and won
Martha Custis

the sun sank lower into the west,
and still Washington fingered. At
last in the warm dusk of the May
evening, the faithful Bishop re-
ceived orders to stable the horses
for the night and the journey was
postponed until the next day.
Budding Romance
There is something amusing in
this scene of budding romance, al
though it is no wonder that Wash
ington married. Martha Custis
was beautiful, attractive and ac-
complished. She has been describ-
ed as being short, slightly plump
and of engaging personality Ger
tainly the Colonel's interest in the
lady was matched by her own in
terest in the renowned young SOL
dier, and such mutual agreeable
ness was surely sufficient to crowd
prosaic business into the back
ground.
However, the Governor had to
be visited, so the next day found
Washington on his way to Will
liamsburg. But as soon as the busi-
ness which took him there was TAX
en- care of, the now fully smitten
Colonel proceeded to the White
House, the Custis home on the
Pamunkey, where it appears Mrs.
Custis expected him. When he left
there he must have been in high
spirits, for he took with him the
lady's promise to marry him as
soon as he should finish his mill
tary service on the Ohio.
Washington did not see his be-
trothed again for several months,
for it was December before he re-
turned from this expedition. His
duties fulfilled, the Colonel resign
ed from the army and fastened
plans for the wedding. It was dur
ing Washington's absence on the
frontier that he wrote the only let
ter to Martha which alone remains
of his prenuptial correspondence
with her. This dignified and
gravely tender note is dated Fort
Cumberland, July 20, 1883:
1--WE have begun our march to
the Ohio. A courier is starting for
williamsburg, and I embrace the
opportunity to send a few words
to one whose life is now INSOFAR
able from mine Since that happy
hour when we made our pledges to
each other, my thoughts have been
continually going to you as to an
other self. That All-powerful Pro-
vidence may keep us both in safe
ty, is the prayer of your faithful
and ever affectionate friend.
G.. Washington"
It still is uncertain whether the
marriage occurred in Saint Peters
Church or at the brides home, the
White House. At any rate, the
Reverend Mr.. MosSom, rector OF
Saint Peters, officiated at the
ceremony. Jared Sparks, one OF
Washingtons earliest biographers,
is the authority for the date of the
wedding which he established as
January 6. But no matter whether
the wedding took place at the
White House or in the Church, it
was a notable event and was at
tended by a great number of Vir-
ginia's prominent people. The Gov
ernor himself was there with civil
and military authorities, and many
of the socially elite. Only a tradi-

So much has been written on the
more spectacular phases of George
Washington's life that it is some
times difficult to appreciate the
really human qualities of the man
One of the finest stories ever told
of Washington is that of his court
ship of Martha Custis and their
subsequent marriage. In this story
are revealed some of the best and
most attractive qualities Of Amer
ica's greatest hero. The firm,
strong -willed leader of men who
unfinchingly would face death on
the battlefield found that he need
ed the companionship and help
full counsel of woman. Fortunate
~, he met the sort of woman he
wanted to preside in his home, and
they were married on January 6,
1859.
The story of George Washing
toms marriage to Martha Custis is
told by the Division of Information
and Publication of the George
Washington Bicentennial Commis-
sion, in statement intended to
call attention to the 172nd ami
versary of this notable event.
George Washington first met the
Widow Custis at the home of Maj
or Chamberlayne in May, 1853. The
lady had then been widow for
about year. She had married
Colonel Parke Custis when she was
seventeen years old, and was left
at his death eight years later, with
two small children and consider
able fortune. Although it is said
that Washington was formally pre-
sented to Mrs. Custis for the first
time by Chamberlayne, it is almost
certain that the famous soldier
and the charming widow had at
least heard of each other before
that time.
Fate must have taken hand in
the events of that day in May when
Colonel washington was detained
at Williams Ferry over the Pamun-
key by his friend, Major Chamber
Iayne, who earnestly pressed upon
the young man an invitation to
stay his journey and enjoy the hos
uitality of the plantation. But
Washington was Fastening to Will
hamsburg where he intended to
ask the Governor in person for
men and supplies for the frontier,
which previous urgent letters had
failed to obtain. Chamberlayne
was insistent, however, and when
it appeared that all his Emporium
tiles must fail to alter the plans
of the Colonel, he informed the
latter that he was then entertain
ing the charming Mrs. Custls. Thls
argument, apparently, was potent
enough to convince the young war
rior where all others had been
vain, and washington consented
to remain only long enough to par
take of the meal which was then
being prepared.
Bishop, the personal servant OF
Washington, who had served un-
der Braddock, was instructed to
hold the Colonel's horse in readl-
ness for a speedy departure as soon
as dinner was over. The old SOL
dier knew very well his masters
reputation for punctuality, ano
since the business at Williamsburg
was important, he fully expected
that this wait would be brle1
one. But the dinner hour passed
