& VIRGINIA THEATRE, Washington, D. C.

The outside of the Virginia Theater is composed of bevel imported

mirrors. To gather the idea of this great undertaking it is

necessary to state that the building was started on the 11th of this

June and was not fully completed when opened on the

10th of December. The entire house is composed of steel and

concrete, no wood being used throughout the entire

building. The stairs are of white marble and the trimmings

Italian marble. The theatre has a capacity of 400.

Four shows nightly of vaudeville and during day moving pictures

is the policy of the house. The theatre is owned and

operated by Mr. John J. Noonan, of Cincinnati, Ohio, who at

one time owned and operated the Lagoon and

Woodsdale Island at Cincinnati.

& Fight Talk Makes Serial Good Again

      The coming fight between Carpentier and Dempsey

is bringing back to life the Dempsey serial,

Daredevil Jack, handled by Pathe. The Virginia Theatre,

Washington, D. C., smeared the lithograph all

over the front, used a cutout and a floor mat, posted the odds

and asked ,Why Wait Until July 2.‘ Bill Hart was

on the same bill, but for once he went to second place.

& „The Home of Charlie.“

      Washington, D. C. – The Virginia theater, on Ninth street,

has practically been renamed the Chaplin Photoplay

House, at least it has come to be known as „ The Home of Charlie,“

for John J. Noonan, proprietor of the theater, is a great

admirer of the popular comedian and insists upon a daily showing

of Chaplin films.
