Fort Armstrong to
Have EAST Lynne"
First Half of Week

The tremendous agitation now
going over a great many Of our
states to place rigid censorship on
the motion picture would be entire
ly unnecessary-even now it is
greatly exaggerated-if we saw
more productions like that Of East
Lynne. This recreation of the
famous story has been produced by
Hugo BALM. as a Hadkinson re-
lease and will be seen at the Fort
Armstrong theater for four days
starting tomorrow.
In East Lynne" we have a tale
that has kept its popularity for 60
years among the millions who read
it as a book and saw it as a play.
1t has survived not only for its
dramatic strength, its sympathy and
the great names of the stage that
have been associated with it, but
primarily because Of it's wholesome
ness. Only what is Straightforward
and clean can stand the test of time
especially in this country where
the lurid and the lewd is but a
matter of the moment.
In addition to East Lynne" will
be the Peterson Sisters, de luxe
singers, late of the Winter Garden
