BROADWAY" AT CAPITOL

It IS seldom indeed that q spec tacular super-featurc comes to the screen able 10 justify all the prom ises which have preceded it. Su- perlalycS are so common and eX- ceptionally meritorious pictures so rare. That is why Broadway" the Universal special which is at the Capitol thcatcr today and Tuesday, Was found so completely satisfac- tory For Broadway" not only justiiics but exceeds every anticipa- ton.
 Naturally it was assumed that "BroadwaN' would have to be an exceptionally good picture, if only because of the obvious excellence of the play from which the story is taken, which ran in New York for almost two years. But hesidcs showing 10 greatest advantage everything responsible for the suc- cess of the play, the all-sound pie iure achieves dramatic and spec tacular effects patcntly impossible on any stage.
 The most elaborate of all of these are the sequences which occur in the gorgeous dancing and dining hall of the Paradise Night Club. which, although merely referred to in the play, are shown with indc- scribable beauty in the film. A huge, SIrikingly executed example of cubistic art is presented in all its dazzling colorings, the while il top-prico rcVu", in marvellous cos- tunes, features many clcvcrly staged song-and-dance numbers
 On Wednesday the Capitol will offer Iupc Nrlcz with Grant With CTS. and Monte Blue in Tiger Rose an all talking hit and the co-fcature will present Little John nic Jones" with Eddie Buzzell, an all talking racing story.

AT THI, PALACE,

To many local citizens "Bvhind the German Lines" official pictures taken by the German government during the war. will perhaps be of more than passing interest. For the first time local men and women who participated actively in the war will have the opportunity 10 see just what was going on behind the lines of the enemy they were facing.
 The pictures show what took place from the very first day of the war in 1914, 10 the Armistice four years later. Every important battle every important military figure and even the military secrets of the high command are revealed.
 "BohinI the German Lines" is everything that the title implies, with its showing of what took place in German cities and towns while the mon of the nation were on Vari- Ous fronts carrying on the grim business of war. Never before has the American public had the oppor- tunity to sec actual pictures of Ger man life when the impreguable Eng fish navy cut off the I'atherland from all sources of importation of food stuffs and other life sustaining neccs- sities.
 Despite Germany's submarine pol icy during the war. the women suf- fered greatly at home from lack of food. Long bread lines, with half starved people waiting long hours for their daily rations, are shown. likewise their grim determination to fight the battle at home is easily discerncd from their faces.
