In "Broken Hearts of Holly
wood" the Warner Bros epic of
Filmtown, directed by Lloyd Bacon,
which comes to the Palace thCater
tomorrow, all the comedy and trag-
edy of the Metropolis of Makc Be
licvc is pictured as never before.
The pathetic company of those who
fail; the small galaxy of those on
whom fortune is smiling; the have
bccns; the want-to-bces; the never
can-bcs; all are pictured as part of
an individual story Of tremendous
dramatic power.
- Broken Hearts of Hollywood, -
concerns film actress who marries
and becomes a mother. Then,
wearying of dull home life, she
leaves her husband and child to re-
turn to Hollywood. The few inter
vening wears have made her a has
been. No one will give her work
and she slips down into the depths,
through drink.
In the meantime her daughter,
grown to young womanhood, comes
to seek her fortune as star. Cir
cumstances place her in the position
of being suspected Of murder Then
comes the unknown mother s
chance to redeem her own soul and
save her daughter.
In the telling of the story such
stars as Patsy Ruth Miller, Louise
Dresser. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.,
Stuart Holmes, Jerry Milay, Bar
bara Worth, Sam lie Grassc and
Emile Chautard play important
roles. Adapted from the original
story written by Raymond Schrock
and Edward Clark, "'Broken Hearts
of Hollywood,' portrays the real
Hollywood, cverybody's Hollywood
city of dreams and of despair! Of
darkness and of light. And it is told
by it's own people-for the tears and
mirth of all people.
If YOU remember back to the
thrill YOU experienced when you
saw 1.-The Third Degree on the
stage, YOU will not want to miss
being thrilled anew by the screen
version of this we'll known melo-
drama, which opens tonight at the
Valley theatcr.
Adapted for Warner Bros. by
Graham Baker, this Charles Klein
mclodrama brings to Dolores Cos
tcllo. the star, the most dramatic
role of her highly successful career.
As Annie, the little trapczc per-
former of side show in COncy
Island, who marries Il young mil
lionaire and is estranged from him
by his proud father, she gives a
beautifully balanced emotional per
formance Miss Costello remains
the greatest " find y Of recent years
on the screen.
Louise Dresser, who is featured
in the supporting role Of Annie ;
mother, surpasscs her moving per
Torrance of the mother in Broken
Hearts of Hollywood. y The scene
where she "onfcsses to Dolores Cos
tcllo that she is her mother. as well
as the murderer Of the man who
had threatened her happiness, is
one of the most perfect in the pro
duction.
OF course, as the title suggests
there is the terrifying and grilling
"'third degree, with handsome
Jason Robards the innocent victim
accused of the murder of villainous
Rockliffe Fellowes, who had been
blackmailing his former sweetheart
now that she had married a man of
wealth.
Kate Price is delightful as a cir
Gus performer, and the remainder
of the east excellent.
THE Third Degree gives YOU
the highest degree of thrills and en-
tcrtainmcnt of any of the recent
films, because of story, acting and
the marvellous direction of Michael
Curti2, fresh from European sue
ccsscS.

when Uncle Wiggily looked in the

meath a big rock, and saw that the
floor, where the Bear was to sleep,
was covered with rough sticks and
dried leaves, the rabbit said:
THAT is no way to make a bed in

''Oh, isn't it!' asked the Bear.
''Of course it ism IT, said the
rabbit. "You will get very tired
lying on such rough bed so long.
What you want TO do is to take a
lot of soft cotton out of milkweed
pods and put that on your bed for

SO Uncle Wiggily showed the Bear
how to claw open the pods and pull
out the fluffy cotton stuff to make
soft bed.

So the bunny uncle helped the
Bear gather the milkweed cotton

big fellow stretched out on the new
mattress to try it, he said he never
had felt such a soft bed.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
BEARS BED

Once upon a time. as Uncle Wig
gily was hopping around in the mea-
dow near deep, dark, dismal
WOOD ds, the rabbit gentleman
saw, growing here and there, many
milkweed plants.
In summer the milkweed plants,
as you know, have broad, green
leaves and pretty, purple flowers in
cluster. And if you break off one
of the leaves there oozes from the
end of the stem white fluid, or
sap, like milk. That is why the
plant is called milkweed, though
the milk isn't good for boys or
girls, though some insects may eat it
for all | know.
of the milkweed plant begin to dry
up the same thing happens to the
clusters of flowers and they turn in
to a long pod, filled with seeds and
on each seed is a bunch of white
fluffy stuff that, when the pod
bursts open, helps the seed to fly to
distant place, when blown by the
Nilb. III IdCt iHt lIull STUN bh
the seed turns it into little airship
and it flies far and, falling to the
ground, so becomes planted and, in
the spring, turns into new plant.
But as yet the pods had not burst
open, though when Uncle Wiggily
cracked some with his paws and saw
the mass of fluffy, soft, cotton stuff
inside, the rabbit said:

Court Lenient
With Farley

Don Farley of Los Angeles, who
arrived i'll FL Centre Friday with
plans for turning El Centre into a
movie colony, made hurried exit
from the city this morning. He en-
tered plea of guilty to charge
of defrauding an innkeeper and was
given a suspended sentence of $50
fine or % days in Jail.
Farley had applied at local
hotel for reservations for a unit of
the Metro-G o-Goldwyn-M Mayer company
and after seeking to gain the conf
dence of the hotel proprietor sought
TO borrow some money. An invest
igation followed which resulted in
his being locked up on vagrancr
charge. He admitted freely after
mis- arrest that the motion picture
scheme was hoax.
The defendant agreed to get Odt
of town Immediately if given his re
lease and said that hc would square
up the amount due the iunkeepHr.
He said that his movie stunt was
the result of disordered miud.
