Picture Hailed by Many as
Best Since The Birth
of a Nation

The five-Star picture, "The Coun-
try Doctor" hailed by many as the
best since The Birth of a Nation"
starts its second week at the Apollo
today.
Those who have seen it agree
that its popularity is not based al
together on the Dionne quinS. They
enjoyed equally the splendid acting
of Jean Hersholt and Dorothy
Peterson. and received a big kick
from the comedy of Slim Summer
vile and John Qualen.
The ctory deals with the heroic
efforts of a Canadian doctor to OBJ
tain a hospital for isolated patients
in Moosetown. He and his nurse
labor faithfully to prevent the
spread of epidemics and to save
crushed limbs of lumbermen.
His career is climaxed when he
brings ruintuplets INTO the world.
Throughout the story there is
romance between the doctors
nephew, young inferno, and a ma
tive girl He flies plane to the
far North settlement, bringing
diphtheria serum to the doctors
guaranteed patients.
You should howl as the Dionne
quintet cavorts about the play
room with Mr.. Hersholt, and you
may shed few tears when the
grey-haired doctor receives his
governments highest honor. (By

that it depends almost completely
