TARTAN OF THE APES"
Jungle Story Appears in Film Form
at the Palace Saturday.

"Tarzan of the Apes" which ex-
cited considerable interest among the
readers of popular-priced fiction
several years ago, will be shown at
the Palace Theatre Saturday in film
form. Being the story of a primeval
manor, rather, of a man brought
up among apes and endowed with
many of their abilities-it presents
not a few difficulties to the movie
maker. All of these have been over
come in the film at the Palace, and
apes swing realistically from bough
to bough in the jungle the while lions
and leopards seek their prey on the
ground below.
Intertwined with the jungle story
is domestic narrative which grows
tedious at times, and the expedient
of the cut-back is resorted to trifle
too freely. All of this is more than
compensated for, however, by the
stirring scenes of the jungle A
majority of these were photographed
in Brazil. and several hundred natives
appear before the camera. The
picture as whole, in addition to be-
ing interesting, also has touch of
educational value. An actor named
Elmo Lincoln meets the difficult re-
quirements of the hero satisfactorily.

CARD OF THANKS

We wish to take advantage through
The Maryville Times of thanking
neighbors Of Maryville Camp No.
1921 M, w. A. for their generosity
by the gift of beautiful bed, mat
tress and springs to take the place of
beds, which were burned with most
everything else in the house when it
burned and family had a narrow
escape. The bed was greatly ap-
preciated and we do heartily thank
you neighbors who are always so
ready and willing to help in distress.

MARGUERITE CLARK
IN SPLENDID FITCH
COMEDY FILM GIRLS
Sweetest Girl in Pictures Has De-
IiRhtfuI Role in New Production.

Beautiful little Marguerite Clark,
who has been called the sweetest girl
on the screen, will appear at the
Palace theatre next Friday in a
play is based upon a delightful
comedy by the late Clyde Fitch, a
picture entitled, "Girls." The photo
noted dramatist, and affords the
charming little star splendid We
hicle. The story is original in plot
and is considered to be one of Clyde
Fitch's best plays. 1t concerns the
attempts of young and beautiful
self styled man-hater to dodge
Cupid's darts, and her final surrender
to the god of love.
Having been forsaken by lover,
earlier in life, she loses faith in men
and avows an eternal hatred against
all of the tribe. Together with two
of her girl comanions she forms a
manhater's club. But her two
charter members gradually weaken
on their rigid policy and form secret
entangling alliances with Cupid
standing by and laughing in his
sleeve.
Thus, deserted by her comrades in
arms, and confronted by an ardent
sweetheart who didn't know the
meaning of the word "no" and whom
she couldn't help but admire, she is
forced to substitute for her vow of
hatred, the marriage vow, which
wasn't at all to her displeasure.
