COMEDY FEATURE
 NOW AT PALACE

Are you the head of your fam fly or are you one of those abject mortals whose every move and rule of conduct is moderated by someone higher up? If you are one of the latter, and you would like to turn the tables, you might learn some thing tonight at the Palace, where "The Head of the Family Goth am Production, holds sway.
 The picture details the trials and tribulations of plumber who is hired by a wealthy, hen-pecked father, to manage his family dur ing his absence. That he succeeds is evidenced in the fact that he finally marries the wealthy mans daughter, puts his house in per- feet order, and calls it a day
 Winsome Virginia Lee Corbin is the daughter in the case; William Russell is the herman who is pro- noted from plumbing to family managing; and Mickey Bennett, Richard Walling, William Welsh, and Aggie Herring make up the rest of the cast. They very deftly and with much gusto contribute a riot of laughs to this entertaining farce. The story is by George Randolph Chester and ran in the Saturday Evening Post.
