picture starring Ann Harding, is now
playing at the Indiana theater. On
the stage Charlie Davis and his
band are presenting Honeymoon

Paris Bound" comes heraIded by
American critics as one Of the best
pictures of the year. 1t is modern
story of romance, beginning where

His story is taken from Philip
Barry's play, directed by Edward
Griffith, and is a frank treatise OF
modern life, which created a furore
of interest during its stage run.

March play the two whose story, as
related begins, instead of ends with
