"TlN HATS" NOW
 SHOWING, PALACE

It is just such pictures as "Tin Hats" the M-G-M comedy which had it's first showings yesterday at the Palace Theatre, that will form the cogs in the peace wheel. This is picture of postwar days in Germany, and concerns chiefly three members of the American Army of Occupation and German girl of title. The subject is treat ed throughout in a humorous vein, yet there is an underlying spirit of truth and sound psychology running therein.
 Conrad Nagel plays one of the three doughboys. Jack Benson, in a manner that leaves nothing to be desired. The actor has ac quired a bravado and swagger in the part that is foreign to any thing he has ever done, and as the leader of the strange trio, has the whole audience cheering foi him.

 "CONNECTlCUT YANKEE" SHOWING AT COLISEUM

In "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" by Mark Twain, William Fox again pre-. sents on the screen the great lit erary classic. A large audience at the Coliseum Theatre, where this special production opened an en- gagement last night, showed keen appreciation of the work and an enthusiasm seldom witnessed in a picture house.
 Mark Twain never wrote any thing funnier than "A Connecti- cut Yankee" or anything more representative of the spirit of America. It is the challenge of the New World to the Old. The principal character, Martin Caven- dish, is typical Yankee with a long line of New England ances- tors. He has heard a good deal about the g1ories of the good old times," and when he is suddenly transplanted to King A Vur's Court he has an opportunity to find out the truth for himself He discovers not only that the plumbing of King Arthur's castle is bad and that it is awkward to live without telephones, railroads, automobiles and other useful things, but also that he is more than match for the Knights of the Round Table in personal cour- age and fighting ability.
 There are as many laughs in the film play as in the book. The most has been made of every sit uation.
 The sumptuous settings present ed by the director, Emmett J. Flynn, are marvels of beauty.
