There are several reasons for this estimate, and the most signifi- cant is that it has been perfectly synchronized—which, with the pic: ture's generous number of songs and and other musical features, means more than it ordinarily does.

A chorus of sixty voices singing spiritual songs has aroused great enthusiasm wherever the pic-| ture has been shown. In addition there is an orchestra, many danc- ers and other performers. Directed by Paul Sloane, “Hearts in Dixie” is brought to the screen as the second recent pioneer effort | of Fox Movietone, the first being the original outdoor all-talking full- length featuré, “In Old Arizona.” “Hearts in Dixie” has been wide- 1y acclaimed as the most novel con- tribution to the speaking screen. -3 3 | HOOT GIBSON AT | PALACE TONIGHT — If you want to see | evmenrll) something unusual in Western photoplays, do!Jurevich, F.
