Shines in Little Women,
Beautiful Story, at Keith's

Dear Mr.. and Mrs. Washing
ton do please take yourselves
and your children, and if you
have no children of your own
take the neighbors' children,
down to R. K. O.-Keith's and
learn of sweetness and whole
some living from the March
girls and their charming mother,
and the likeable Laurence boy,
next door.
You'll find the play opening
as the book does with Marmee
doing her bit at the commits
sary, 10 reading to Aunt March,
Meg as a governess, Amy being
punished at school, and dear,
gentle Beth with her kittens
and her meager music.
Its Christmas Eve and the
youngsters are hurrying through
their tasks to get home early
to greet Marmee, and when the
mother opens the door to find
her four lively girls waiting
with open arms, Hannah sing
ing in the kitchen, a cherry fire
glowing on the hearth, the
favorite story of youthful Amer
lea gets off to q beautiful start
which will hold you enthralled
for moro than o hundred min
uteS.
Following closely Louisa Al
colts word-picture Of the
March family, the Screen-play
takes us through all the de-
nghtful pranks played by hoy
den 10, the generous Laurie
and his rejuvenated grand
father, the marriage Of Meg
and John Brooke, the illness
of Beth, JOS flight to New
York and her wildly magma
tive stories which helped to
keep the big, bad wolf from
the threshold, Amy'S romance,
and that day when all the
Marches were together again
and JOS professor walks in.
FlawIess Cast
Played expertly by an almost
flawless cast. Little Women"
is surely the film industry'S
gift to q world becoming sane
again.
The lovable 10 lives again in
the sometimes very ugly, some
times very beautiful Katharine
Hepburn, whose work has
taken giant strides since her
first screening and yet who re-
tains that understanding Of
characterization which is so
rare. Frances Dee is Meg: Jean
Parker the gentle Beth and
the loveliest Of the Benefits
Goan). is Amy. Spring Bying-
tone who plays Marmee, de-
serves equal billing with the
featured players. Edna Mae
Oliver plays the redoubtable
Aunt March; Henry Stephen
son, the wealthy Mr.. Laurence
and Douglas Montgomery the
grandson, Laurie.
You'll love it; you can't
help it; its given to you so
splendidly, and, as II the fea-
ture were not enough for one
evenings entertainment, there
are those little boastful pigs
again, disporting themselves to
the tune Of what threatens to
become the new national an
them.
There is q newsreel, too,

tear-dimmed eyes Of an audi.
ence made up Of the great and

That is but one of the unusual
questions that are daily received

Expected to Show Small
Majority for Project

Windup of the drive to secure
approval of a $2,5O0,00O sewer
bond issue for Arlington county
Va, is being held today and
last minute reports indicate the
issue will be approved by an ex-
tremely narrow margin.
Under provision of the issue,
which will face a vote tomor-
row at the polls, the county
would borrow $2,50O,00O from
the Public Works Administration
in exchange for bonds and then
would install a countrywide
sewer system.

which motion pictures of a mod
ern disposal plant in operation
will be shown. Speakers will be

Board Member Lyman M
Kelley issued a letter today to all
residents of the county urging
their support and pointing out
that the project is a part of the
Federal program to restore bust
ness.
Opposition to the project has
centered mainly from the Thrift
ton Village Improvement League,
representatives of which claim
the loan will place a 10 per
cent mortgage on homes" and
that the board "misrepresented'
the situation in their applica-
ton for the Federal loan.
