One of the most delicious comedies
which 1t has ever been our pleasure
to see is on view this week at the

featuring Colleen Moore, the little
star who created a sensation through

on Richard ConnelPs Golfers Week

with the adventures of a boy and a
girl who are entranced by the visions
of "high life" afforded them by the
residents living on the Sother side of
the tracks" in their town, and who
deliberately set out to gain admis-

To reveal the outcome OF this
faux pas or the plot of the story
would do you an injustice, for 1t
