North Dakota and the nation will begin the celebration on Washing- ton’s 200th birthday Feb. 22 and will continue until Thanksgiving dey.

But the wife, a cour- ageous woman who has helped her husband in his cilmb to success, re- fuses to take his “wanderings” too seriously. She believes he is merely infatuated and hopes that he will eventually return to her and their two adorable children. Her at- titude and her desperate struggle to id her happiness, family and love as if nothing had happened makes for thoughtful drama to strike deep into the hearts of men and women. CAPITOL THEATRE Mixing @ brand new assortment of ‘comedy gags with music and the 1} dicrously funny situation of two law- yers in the midst of the Reno divorce mill, Bert Wheeler and Robert Wool- sey are scheduled to make another triumphant return to the Capitol Theatre in RKO-Radio Pictures’ “Peach O’ Reno.” The picture is the first humorous treatment of the Reno divorce situa- tion to come out of Hollywood and provides the two ace comedians with two of the most unroarious comedy roles in their varied stage and screen careers. As in former Wheeler and Wool- sey comtedies, Dorothy Lee provides the romantic interest in a story that is filled with budding romances and hectic young wives seeking release from marriage. The RKO-Radio Pictures’ studio has made the picture more elaborate than is usually the case ih comedies. Particularly is this true of the set- tings . which include a courtroom ‘with hundreds of extras, a bizarre law office in which Wheeler and ‘Woolsey handle the hundreds of di- vorce cases that come their way and an unusual night club and office. The secretaries in the office, incidentally, ‘are the prettiest models on the Paci- fic Coast. An orchestra of fifty pieces fur- nishes music for the picture at ap- propriate spots and this music, by the way, is cleverly incorporated in the film. . The wag directed by William Shiter with a supporting cast which includes Joseph Cawthorn, »-_ Sam Hardy, Cora Witherspoon, Zelma O'Neal, Arthur Hoyt, Mitchell Har- ris and Josephine Whittel. N. D.
