The production is a new type of domestic picture, be cause it differs radically from the class of pictures that have dealt with the home* and its problems in the past. The picture is declared to- be finely directed and staged, releases a fine tone of atmosphere and pul sates with human emotions. Con flict is rife throughout—and the storm of emotion which surges through the story compels the strictest attention. “Temporary Marriage” has an all star cast including Kenneth Har lan, Mildred Davis, Myrtle Sted man, Tully Marshall, Maude George and Stuart Holmes. On the same program is being shown a comedy, “Dogs of War.” Today’s attraction at the Rylan der is Wesley Barry’s latest fea ture production, “George Washing ton, Jr., adapted from Geo. M. Cohan’s farce success of the same I name.
