On This
Occasion
A Few Observations on Matters
Material and Immaterial by
the Editor.

Isn't it the truth? Now
comes International Falls and
the country north Of Virginia
with the statement that not
withstanding the partiality
shown the Farmer-Labor party
by Koochiching county, the F.
L. dominated highway depart
ment has done nothing for the
county.
Koochiching county and the
iron range area has been partial
to the party in power. This,
naturally has bred ownership
proclivities in the powers with
the conclusion that as long as
they were regular" they
would stand without hitching
and all attention must be paid
to the opposition with the result
that the opposition was brought
into line with plums rightfully
belonging to the regulars"

Margaret Lindsay Plays Portia in

THE Metropolitan is open for busi-

fashion that the law is full of

plenty of it.
The real "payoff," however. comes
when Mr.. Talbot becomes involved
with the duly constituted authority
over a little matter of discharging
guns in the direction Of Mr.. Hull.
Miss Lindsay Startles all present (the
picture shows it, by calling the prose-
cutor as the only defense witness; she
stuns them by producing the real
racketeer from the rear of the court
room just after friend Hull has
identified a double as Talbot; she
finally lays them low by admitting the
guilt of her client. Voluntary pro-
ceedings for her own disbarment fol-
low, the State has lost a lawyer and
an assistant district attorney has won

The Law in Her Hands" will not
occupy too much Of the Academy's
time; it is not gripping, soul-stir-

tertainment verdict is on the plus
side The pattern is relatively simple,
but the opus has enough to hold your
interest. If you think that everything
is over rather quickly, look at your

GAYN0R FILM STAYS
4TH WEEK DOWNTOWN
Small Town GIRL With Robert
Taylor. in Popular Film, Now

GO POPULAR has been the unjust
- and downright despicable treat
ment bestowed upon Miss Janet Gay
nor by Mr.. Robert Taylor that Small
Town Girl" the motion picture IN
which this intolerable state Of affairs
occurs. has been held over for another
week at Loew's Columbia. This makes
the fourth week on F street upon
which this tale of a small-town lass
who married in haste and cham

left to be said about it. You can feel
pretty sure that it is cinema item
you will enjoy and If you belong TO
the distaff half of the towns popu-
lation you probably have visited
Small Town Girl at least twice al
ready because Of the presence therein
Of Mr.. Taylor.
II you have not seen Small Town
Girl" you should be informed that
you are missing one Of the pleasanter
films of the day-a film which has
been adapted by the Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer people from the Ben Ames Will
liams novel with a deXterity which
has brought out the true essence OF
the tale about young lady who de-
serted the dread doldrums of her VIII
lage home in an impetuous moment

happiness she wanted. It's no medal
winner, this picture, and it has not
the stamp of greatness upon its brow.
but it's real and human and thor
oughly enjoyable.
Janet Gaynor. in one Of her best
roles, is not so too-too sugary, as she
has been at other times, and is there
fore much more likeable; Robert Tay-
lor makes the best of his role, though
none of the gals who like his smile
are going to believe he could be that
mean; lanky Jimmy Stewart turns in
another of those sterling perform
ances, and the others do their various
parts with the proper spirit. H. M.

You'll know what a help he is to

instead is shipped to France. After

but parking for an hour and five
minutes on F street, Joe is decorated
and falls into a clinch with a very
beautiful French lass, whom you know
as Joan Blondell. 1t all has little
point and a lot Of fun.
While Joe is causing chaos on the
Western front the makers of the film
insert what really is the most telling
and most hilarious argument against
warfare yet displayed. This is when
the comic sets out at the head Of a
scouting party, runs into three Ger
mans who refuse ever after to leave
him and who, instead Of. leaving, go
through the German lines and gather
up all, at least half the German Army,
who also join Joe. The boys throw
down their guns and say. IF the big
shots back there want to fight, let
them come up and fight. We're not

tained much delicacy in the lighter
numbers, and the softer passages were
lovely.
The opening number included "Or-

"Who Is Sylvia" from Two Gentle
men Of Verona" and his setting OF
"Hark! Hark! The Lark" from
"Cymbeline." The second group was
OF still lighter vein, including the old
est setting Of Under the Greenwood
Tree" and "It Was Lover and His
Lass" seventeenth century melodies
used in "As You Like It." the first
being the oldest setting for those
words.
Two old English tunes, Hold Thy
Peace, Knave," heard in Twelfth
Night" and Jack Boy! Ho Boy"
from "The Tanning Of the Shrew,"
were sung without accompaniment.
The distinct enunciation made these
numbers particularly effective. The
last number closed with H. Walford
