New National Theater. That the play { has not loat any of its popularity w ! demonstrated last night. when a large ! nudience was on hand to witness the opening show. The story deals with three couples realding uncomfortably In an apart- ment house. ¢ne of the couples. in fact, newly-wods, bring the others into m friendly &roup. through the young wife's entertaining. The hus- band. however, desires peace and quiet In his household. Beveral mquabbles ensue between the yvoung couple, but | they make up before the young bride |starts to pack and “go home to mother.” A note from the landlord to {each couple tells of his openihg of a {new apartment in another section. De- | siring to be the firat in, each couple| takes quarters there. There 1s much amusement when the several people learn of the presence of the cthers in the new quarters. The introduction of twin beds by the young ‘bride furnishes the comedy | climax. The husband of one of tho other women getting into the bed- chamber of the young bride, while intoxicated, and, in fact, into her hus- band's bed. The audience had many laughs over the complications which { followed. The cast is headed by Mabelle telle. Others in the cast are Virgin “uirtax, June Floodas, Georgla Bur- Auguste Aramini, Godfrey Mat- s and Willlam Weston. I thew The Strand.

Photoplay Features. “Man—Woman—Marriage.” “Man—Woman—Marriage,” given its Washington premiere at the Metropoli- tan and Knickerbocker theaters yeste: day, is a decided screen innovation. It is two plays in one. acted with a single set of principals. It is both instructive land interesting and, while dealing with a sex problem, is so skillfully handled as to suggest no need of cen- soring. The story. which is from the peu of Allen Holubar, deals with the age-long protest of women against the discriminations imposed upon her by man. Modern in its main theme, the plot is built against a background of excursions into history which show that woman's struggle for freedom hxau not ceased since the beginning of time. Through the portrayal of thesa his- torical events, such as the battle of the Amazons, the picture assumes the proportions of an extravaganza. In | cssaying the roles of women of the {middle ages and delineating the part of a devoted wife and mother dealing with problems of the modern home Dorothy Phillips makes the most of a {complex of characters. Her work jdemonstrates a versatility only sel- jdom called for in the such a wide scale. y {frage and carries a subtle suggestion that the grantin of the ballot to woman will lead to legislation for better protection of woman, for child welfare and safer home environments. “Without Limit.” “Without Limit," the attraction this week at Loew's Palace Theater, is an entertaining, well produced picture. Anna Q. Nilsson heads the cast. The story, based ou Calvin Johnston's “Temple Dawn,” deals with Ember Fi ., as played by M girl n a moment of revelry, marries a j weakling of a man. She soon discovers ‘he ix a gambler and forger. The girl % to the depths of poverty, but is a gambler, who protects her all harm and helps her until her i husband returns from war and is brought to realize the error of his old {life. " He takes the right road to happi- ness, with his wife. Pathe News pictures, Literary Digest topics and an excellent musical program | complete the program. “Reputation.” Priscilla Dean's vivac v, charm,| THE EVENING in_which this boy, like a knight of | 0ld. fought the good fight for a “painted lady's” daughter, who was fown, STAR, of the same name by Sir James M.
