Not since his role of “Captain Flagg” in “What Price Glory,” has McLaglen had the opportunity to play such a human and likable character, and it was the opinion of this reviewer that his “Spike Madden” will take his place among the well remembered characters of the screen. Eight of the most popular young actresses in motion pictures play the feminine leads in the production. Marie Casajuana, the little Spanish beauty whom Fox Films has re- cently imported from her native land, is the Argentine miss. Louise Brooks plays the role of the French maiden, who almost breaks up the friendship. Natalie Joyce is the girl from Panama; Gretel Yoltz, the girl in Amsterdam, and Leila Hyams the Americal lassie stranded in cen- tral America. ¥GIRL ON THE BARGE” | IS COMING TO PALACE | 5 LEdward Sloman, director of Uni- yersal's intensely human romance, l ! mental principle of ¢ “iLocal | | i SET TO By FRANK 1.

Chairman Legge of the farm board believes it to be a move on the part of the spring wheat farm- ers to cooperate with the board's crop reduction program—which the chairman describes the funda- 1omic read- justment for agriculture. He advocates even more flax, con- sidering the huge annual importa- tions, and a return of the to pasture where flax is not sub- stituted for wheat He favors a 10 per cent reduction “The Girl on the Barge,” star Jean Hersholt, which will open 2 ng your story with a mosaic of small character incidents. “When most people think of Na- poleon, they recall the occurrence when he found a seniry almost asleep and walked his post for him instead of condemning him to j death.” “The Girl on the Barge,” a story by Rupert Hug The cast supporting Hersholt includes Sally O'Neil, Malcolm MacGregor, Morris McIntosh, Nancy Kelly, Offerman, Henry West and J. Fran- cis Robertson. The picture made largely on location Champlain Ship canal in New York State.
