Shirley Mason. Saturday.

NNE might believe when one sees the
title, ''rhe Final Close-Up," the
new Paramount picture starring
Shirley Mason which will be shown next
Saturday that the photoplay deals with
the adventures of a moving picture
actress in studio-but that is wrong
impression.
''The Final Closeup" is a story of the
adventures of little department store
girl clerk who had no money but lots of
pep and determination. On one of New
York's hottest days she gets vacation
by pretending to faint. She goes to sea-
side town and puts up at the best hotel.
stirring up all kinds of excitement among
the high society people who have quarters
there.
The hotel is robbed and when it is learn
ed that she is department store clerk,
she is suspected, but she places the blame
where it belongs by catching the rogues
herself, armed with nothing more than
an iron skillet.
Her sweetheart proposes to her and she
reminds the boy that in the movies they
have what they call 'the final close up"
He then takes her in his arms.
Saturdays program will also include a
Sunshine act comedy and Kilograms.
