GAS the Tlarth Turns" based on Gladys Hasty Carroll's sensational novel portraying q romance of New England rural life, comes to Warner Brothers State on Wed- nesday.
 The picture deals with the lives and loves, the joys and tribula-. tlonsof small community of farmer folk which Miss Carroll has painted so vividly and pic turesquely in her novel which was the best selling book of the year. Though she has dealt with sim pIe people living comparatively quiet lives she has made them live and breathe. The homely events have been brought out with a real ism that makes them lifelike.
 The picture is said to have caught the exact spirit of the novel and to have brought tho many unusual characterizations to the screen with sincerely and adherence to reality that makes the players seem not as actors but as real flesh and blood human be- ifigs, each going through his or her part as naturally as though they were actually living on a New England farm.
 In the picture Warner Brothers present two new juvenile stars, these are Jean Muir, but lately come from the New York stage. recently elevated to a leading role in "Bedsidc'' with Warren william and who has played in but four other pictures. and Don- aid Woods, who makes his picture bow with "As the Earth Turns" although he has made quite a rcp- utation for himself on the stage.
 The cast as matter of fate, according to Warmers, was selected strictly on the merits of each in- dlyidual player and because the player was most nearly represen- tative of the role to be portrayed that could be found.
 Others in the cast include Rus sell Hardie, Arthur Hohl, Dorothy Peterson, David Landau, Clara Blandick, William Janney,~ Doro- thy Appleby, Emily Lowry, Sarah Padden and Egon Brecher besides nineof the best known child ac- tors of the screen.
 The companion feature will be "Girl Without 0 Room" starring Charles Farrell, Charlie Ruggles, Grace Bradley and Walter Woolf. The current show includes "Mel- ody in Spring" with Lanny Ross and Ann Sotherp and "The Crime Doctor" with Otto Kruger.

revelation and a delight.
 Beautiful and unsophisticated, a. young girl in the company of q labor agitator sets forth for Green wich Village, where he introduces her to a number of his artistic but poverty stricken friends. While there, she meets and makes the acquaintance of wealthy gentle man. He becomes impressed with her desire to raise sufficient funds to foster the ambitions of her friends and he agrees to back them for six months. If none of them makes good. the girl must consider the obligation as hers. Her friends squander the money foolishly, and she realizes that they are all fakers. Thoroughly dislllusioned, she is about to call quits, when she receives word that the book she has been writing has been accepted by publisher. With the small check she had received, she goes to make her first payment on her obligation to her wealthy friend. He pleads with her to let him see her, but she insists on going on alone, though she permits him to feel that perhaps some day they may meet again.
 Besides the splendid perform ance of Miss Ames, the two leading men in the cast, Victor Jory and John Boles, contribute excellent portrayals. The other members of
