EMBASSY THEATER

Packed with thrills" is a phrase that used to be applied to many of the old western pictures but it is admirably suited to Good Inten- tions," with Edmund Lowe that opens at the Embassy tomorrow.
 Directed by William K. Howard, from his own original story, the mar raeive deals with the romance of an international crook. who tries to go straight because of a society girls love. Played against the grim back ground of the modern underworld, the action maintains unusual inten- sity and ample suspense from the opening scene to it's rapid fire climax.
 Edmund Lowe, who abandoned his famous sergeant of marine at tire for that of a bootlegger in his recent Born Reckless" demon strates his versatility by giving a re- markable impersonation Of the suave and polished gentleman crook in this offering. Marguerite Churchill gives the finest perform ance of her Fox movietone career as the Society girl heroine. Regis Too mey, Owen Davis, Jr. Hale Hamil- ton, Earle Foxe. Eddie Gribbon, Henry Kolker, J. Carol Naish and Pat Somerset are other players who skillfully interpret their respective roles

AT THE STRAND

For those who are tired of sym bolic studies. futuristic angles and other examples of the newest in novations in screen art. the simple little picture of home life which Metro -Goldwyn-M Mayer presented last night at the Strand theater for three days with five acts of select vaudeville. under he title of The Richest Man in the World" comes as a decide relief.
 This picture tells a story of real people and real occurrences. Its chief character IS an old German barber who settles in a midwestern American town and raises a brood of children And what a time he has. Tragedy and comedy play their hand and each youngster turns out differently.
 The old German and his wife struggle through all the difficulties and live to see their grown up children on the way to successful careers with the cycle being re- stunned again in the third genera ton.

Gatchett and Hooper The Manoeu- vers" The Three Westergards in "Equilbrists De Luxe" Symbols of Arte With Denis and Nina Claire.
