.COHENS AND KELLYS
 IN LYCEUM FEATURE
Seasons Greatest Film Comedy
 Opens Sunday Evening

The funniest picture Of the year, the lllm with t,0Q0 laughs. a photo. play that still is drawing capacity houses at the Colony thcatcr in New York opens for four days at the Ly- ceum tomorrow night. "Thc Cohens and the Kollys," with Georgr Sidney, Charley Murray and Vera Gordon is the picture and if there ever was a real knockout, this is it, The com panion picture also is e top notchcr presenting Huntloy Gordon and Helene Chadwick in "The Golden Cocoon" story of a timid moth whom love changed to q gorgeous butterfly.
 "The Cohons and the Kellys' di- rccted hy Harry Pollard, is from the play 1.-TWO Blocks Away" and its To- calc is New Yorks east side. The story is q comedy drama of quick richness and the relations between Jewish and an Irish family.
 Tho Jewish family inherits mil ! lion dollars after having lived from 1 mcagre profits of a little clothing shop and it Is upon this incident that the comedy is woven. Natural ly tho Jewish daughter and the Irish 1 son fall in love with each other and marry secretly becaus" each is afraid of their parents. Then comes the , inheritance and the Jewish family at once moves into Park avenue and gives q big party. Back in the slums the Irish family rosonts not being in- vited. so dressed in what they think is style they attend anyway This gives some very funny sccn"s which shortly change to pathos when tho Jewish daughter is driven from home on the birth of her child. Sh' goes to her husbands home and thf Irish family take her in, Suhs"- 0ucnt events show q uucor legal tan. gle and the million after all was th' property of the kc,lys. The money is shared and the Cohcns and tho Kcllys live happily probably forever after.
 Everybody who has read Rutf Cross The Golden Cocoon know! what fine picture this will make rt is a novel of life in Texas al tho lime of the oil boom, shows the cvi'' of gossip. the danger of circumStan tial evidence, the beautiful devotion of woman for the man she low" and the fascinating game Of politics
