GARDEN

Nathaniel Hawthorne's greatest literary masterpiece, "The Scar let Letter." a Majestic picture with charming Colleen Moore as the star, comes to Garden theater to- morrow, Monday and Tuesday.
 For the past half-century and more Hawthorne's book has ranked among the foremost works in American literature. Besides finding it's place on every library shelf and as part of most advanced school curriculums. "The Scarlet Letter." because of its theme, has continually stirred discussion among literary groups, public for ums and from church pulpits.
 With the skillrul direction of Robert Vignola, Hester Prynne, the sensitive heroine of flaw thorne's tale, assumes a dramatic scope that the story has failed to achieve when 1t has been drama tized in the past. With such noted screen favorites as Miss Moore, Hardie Albright, Henry B. Wal thall, Alan Hale, Virginia Howell, Cora Sue Collins, William Farnum, William Kent, Flora Finch, Betty Blythe and a number of others, the director has been able to give the story a modern and fast nov ing picturization.
 The story, dealing with Hester, is the story of Puritan Boston, that punished severely those cir cumventing the rigid moral code of that period. Hester, the sinner, bears her punishment stoically, re- fusing to yield the name of the man that sinned with her even though 1t will make her punish ment lighter. After an absence of several years her husband returns and the sight of his young wife with an infant child arouses

 gram Opening To-day 'It Happened One Night"

All the charm and whimsical romance of Frank Capra's Tt Happened One Night" have been recaptured and embellished by the great director in his newest Co., lumbia production. Broadway Bill" a film which undoubted- ly ranks as Capra's greatest achievement with the camera. Deity and with the artistry that Is singularly his own, Capra has woven about the simple story of a man and a girl who forsake the luxuries of life for the free dom of nomad's existence, a delightful, heart-satisfying roman tic drama.
 This picture begins it's local en- gagement at the Warner State theater to-day and the acclaim it has been receiving everywhere 1t is shown, stamp 1t as another triumphant hit for the producers. Particularly edifying are the DOT trayals by Warner Baxter and Myrna Loy in the co-starring roles. Baxter is grand as the life loving Dan Brooks; Miss Loy is utterly delightful in a role more charming and colorful than her characterization in "The Thin Man."
 By this time 1t is evident that much of the success of Capras productions are definitely related to the sparkling scripts turned in by Robert Riskin, the man re- sponsible for the screen adapta- tion of Lady for A Day" and "It, Happend One Night" in ad- dition to Broadway Bill" The screen play is based on @ short story by Mark Hellinger, news paper columnist.
 The large and imposing cast aquits itself admirably under Cap ra's inspired direction. Walter Connolly turns in a grand fawless portrayal; Helen Vinson is superb as the social climbing wife; Clar- ence Muse Is his usual comic self, and Margaret Hamilton, Ray mond Walburn, Lynne Oyerman, | Frankie Darro and Edmund Breese contribute to the films general excellence
 The management has booked an impressive surrounding program of the best short subjects obtain able to accompany this great fea- ture attraction. Here is your en- tertainment treat for the week end.
