Both Mary Brian and Richard A len have given promise of great things_ in the past but, in “The Man L Love,” they realize a glorious ful- fillment. The story, dealing with the love affair of a boy and girl who | g0 to New York in answer to an ambitious urge and find only disap- pointment, is filled with the adven- ture in which youth revels. Arlen as the boy lover is great and as the young man filled with the pride of achievement, he is superb. The vaudeville program features Sierak’s Miracles, one of the great- ”Sl mysteries of the stage in present- ing the X Ray Lady. Other features offer ‘Flashlights” with Evans and Pitts and eight feminine rl;\m-ing flashes; Jack and Jessie Gibson in a | cycle of smiles and thrills; Sally and Sunny in “A Smile and a Step:;” and | Bobbe and King, “Two Nuts.’ GIFT NIGHT AT CAPITOL Merchants' Gift Night will be of- fered at the Capitol this evening | when many valuable gifts of mer chandise will be given away free to patrons in the audience.

The heavy woods has been pushed back a short distance and | underbrush cleared away to permit | enlargement of the camp itself, while two wooden cabins for the cub scouts have been added to the seven | tents used by the older campers. The | mess hall has been improved and | |a field-stone fireplace donated by the | Rotary club installed, and here the | evening camp fires have been held | during the cold weather of the past | week. Tt is expected that this build- |ing will have to be enlarged next year. A handicraft tent with a full com- | plement of tools has been set up, |and various scout officials and other local men interested in the move- ment have spent considerable time at camp instructing the boys in woodkork, the making of bows and arrows, leathercraft, and other forms of handicraft. Several of the veteran scouts are well enough sersed in | these lines to gove instructions, and Jiagrams have been prepared en- abling the boys to work out the var- jous articles almost hy themselves. he finished work includes about a score of large bows and arrows.
