Again Douglas Fairbanks has tri.
nmphed. In his latest film, THE Three
Musketeers," which opened yesterday
at the Gayety theater for fOur-day

own, Based on Alexander Dumas
World-famOus novel which deals with
tive history of France in the early
seventeenth century, the photOplay
cmbOdies all of the romantic adver.
ture injected into that stirring tale
by the celebrated French author, and
it also accentuates the high points,
stamping them with an indelibe i'm
print on the memory.
Douglas Fairbanks In the part Of
ID Artagnan, greatest swordsman in AL
france. gives an Interpretation that
forever establishes him as one of the
greatest screen actors Of all time
While he does many hazardous stunts
in this picture, he is by no means
merely a housekeeping, hOuse-Climbing
Jumping jack. His duaal with Berna
jCuS, the cardinals greatest swords
man. is one of the most thrilling and
intense pieces of action ever shown on
Inc screen.
