 So saith Edward Everett Horton, start of the stage and screen, who con- tributes to the comedy moments in James Cruces amusing rural TO- nance, Marry Mel" coming tonight to the Liberty.
 Horton is himself living example of the efficacy of laughter.
 Yet, paradoxdoxical as it may sound, his part in Marry Me is that of a chronic crank, whose disposition and stomach have been soured because of impure food. In the course of his legal fight on the commission mer- chants who sold him cold storage eggs, he enlists the help of a pretty school teacher, and thereby gets him. self ito all sorts of romantic com plications.
 The story was adapted from "The Nest Egg" a famous Broadway stage success by Anne Caldwell. Florence Vidor has the leading feminine role opposite Horton, and the other fea- tured players include Helen Jerome Eddy and John Roche.
