They are aided in their comedy
by fantastic plot that leads them
into various ridiculous and. at
times. perilous situations. Many
OF the scenes are in the air and
these sequences are not without
thrills.
Yet the outstanding feature Of
this production is it's sheer comedy.
From time to time these two inno-
cents are quite involuntarily
caught in the stream Of events.
things begin to happen on both
sides of the fighting lines. in
France. Alsace, in the air and on
the sea. It's WOW for action.
Berry, one of the finest actors
that ever graced the screen. in the

his best in the present opus. Hat

There are two feminine roles.
and as these roles are twin sisters.
Louise Brooks plays both in an

Eddie Green makes good in
comedy and song. Andy McCann

are heard and seen often and
each of their repeated visits to
the footlights is good for some
thing fine.
The programe is all cluttered up
with bright musical numbers and

The numbers especially fetching
are "The Story of the Drums"
and Dancing the Curtain Down"
The production carries some

MONT SEC, France-Pompeii, with
its famous murals, has nothing on
Mont Sec.
In the basement of Louis Warm are
wall paintings which record with de-
tail and humor the life of the German
army. They are the work OF A.
Nursatsek, a Ca-a.1o-l cartoonist. and
were done while the basement was oc-
cupied by German officers.
A fire which RACED almost every
thing in the region of Mont Sec swept
away the upper part of M. Varin's
house. But the basement and its frieze
remains much as it was when the SOL
diers occupied it.
When the Americans took Mont
Sec. doughboys took over the quarters
of the German officers. But they did
not efface the work of the German
artist, which depicted scenes from a
soldiers life, with which they were
familiar. Hundreds Of Americans
scratched their initials on the walls
around the cartoon.
The basement is an unofficial mu.
scum. 1t will be mecca for many
doughboys who return with the Amer
