BREED THEATRE

The strenuous Fairbanks, whose surname is Doug" has pulled an- other thrifers in producing E. sec ond Independently produced ploture for United Artists, When Clouds Roll By" which crowded to its utmost capacity yesterday the Breed theatre
 Doug" has had q habit of doing unusual things but he exceeded ex- pectations this time, despite the fact that we were told ths.t this was his best production. 5uperfgous phrases which preceded his coming, in taking about the film, were more than lived up to, and we say without lear of contrad.c .ction that this $ one of the few pictures ever produced that fans really want to see over and over again.
 The most unusual feature about the picture is the subject treated-Super- sttions. It's a touchy theme to say the least because of the millions of people in the country who really be- lieve that thy won't be married for seven years of they break a mirror, that they'll have bad luck if a black cat crosses their path or that they will have a quarrel if they spill salt and all the other hundred and,2ne sup perstitious jinxs. But they way | Doug handles the material is just to the liking of everyone who crowded the theatre, and moreover he comes through his terrible doings with the optimistic smile and good will ex pression that he always does smashing to smithereens all the old hoax stuff
 People who miss this production are missing the greatest Fairbanks treat of their lives. This is the sec ond independent picture 'Doug" has made for United Artists, and it goes now without argument that he has ac- complshed more in his last two pie lures as an independent producer than he did in any of all his previous ones.
 When the Clouds Roll By" Is a capital comedy ali the way through, full of lively action, and amusing sit nations, clean as a hounds tooth and without single trace of dullness to mar it's entertaining qualities. When 1 a comedy can travel a six-reel limit with never a slackening of speed or interest it can fairly be said to have a super attraction and this is exactly what ''When Clouds Roll By has suc- | ceedPd in doing.
 E When the Clouds Fol By" will be shown again today and tomorrow and other pictudes on the bill include Al
