AMUSING FARCE AT THE CAPITOL
 WITH ROBINSON
Noted Star of Silver Dol lar" and Other Hits Has
 Fine Role in Little Giant

Did you ever hear of the Chi cago refinancing plan?
 It is a sure fire system of re- habilitating ones financial status. At least it proves so in Edward C.. Robinson's latest First National picture, The Little Giant" which is now at the Capitol Theatre.
 Eddie plays the role of Chicago gang leader, who quits the beer racket to try to break into society The hard boiled gang leader proves an easy mark for a social adven- turess who, with her family takes him over to the tune of $300,000.
 Then Eddie starts his refinanc- ing plan. He calls his former Chi cago trusty henchmen to his as- sistance. The stocks and bonds Eddie has purchased from the di- rectors of the fraudulent firm are handed over to the gangsters who become bond salesmen de luxe.
 By high pressure methods which are only applicable to the C'hica- go refinancing plan, each director buys back his former worthless stock, which he had sold to "The Little Giant" Robinson's adven- lures in breaking into society form one of the most hilarious as well as exciting comedy dramas he has ever played. Mary Astor plays the leading feminine role with Helen Vinson as the beautiful so- ciety Sdvepturess.

The drought has been aggravated
by sizzling heat.
Nothing remotely approaching
the severity of this combination ap-

Other drought years, notably
1S94-95, 1901, 1910, 1914 and

Senator Reynolds
To Visit Mexico

Washington.-Senator Robert R.
Reynolds stated that he was plan
ming to visit Mexico City during the
carly autumn, and had practically
made arrangements for the trip.
The junior senator will combine
business with pleasure. He is vice
president of the American Auto
mobile association, which is deeply
interested in developing the Inter
national Highway from Washing
ton to Mexico City, upon which it
has already spent much time and
expense. The road is now COM
plete except a few links, and Sena-
tor Reynolds hopes to travel over
a part of it on his trip to the CAPT
tai of the Republic south of the
Rio Grande, making the trip by
automobile and returning by ship.
Senator Reyonlds is also anxious
to visit Hon. Josephus Daniels of
Raleigh, American ambassador to
Mexico, and this will be one of the
incentives for the trip. AS con-
lgress does not convene until jan
uary 3, next, Senator Reynolds
feels that he would have ample
time to make the trip.
