"The Silent Lie." supported by a superb cast of Fox players which ncludes Charles Clary, Monroe Salis bury and Howard Davies. A gripping story, exceptional hits of photography and a worthy cast are a few of the most notable features in R. A. Walsh's production, "The Silent Lie." For the scenes in and about he gambling saloon, located in the jreat Northwest, the director has -ickod some of the most lurid char TCter types and actions of the lowest forms of humanity from the book of life and has presented itiem in a typi cal R. A. Walsh style, with no at tempt to conceal anything. FrcM an artistic sense this point is a notable one, although it will undoubtedly have the effect of a shudder upon those not acquainted with this particular mode of living or for those who find no pleasure of contrast with tne more -rhio and enlightening sale of life.

In 1911 he was appointed judge ad vocate, general, which is regarded as one of -the highest honors in military circles. Soon after his appointment he was snt on a special mission to Chili.
