"I TAKE THIS WOMAN."
"I Take This Woman," ΠΟΥ showing at the King's Theatro, is the story of a likeable, easy-going Westerner, and wealthy girl, beautiful, spoiled, impetuous, caught up to a sudden whirlwind of love, who marry, struggle to make a go of it, repent, separate and find they can't stay apart.
Gary Cooper, after a brief ab sence from the Western plains in "City Street," returns to the spurs and chaps for this actionful story whose setting whirls from gay-time New York to the range-country of Wyoming, and back again. Carole Lombard, blonde, charming, talent- ed, is the girl. Together they make a vivid and vital thing of this tense story from the pen of Mary Rine- hart, one of America's foremost women novelists.
You will enjoy this picture. Its varying backgrounds are fascinat- ing. from the rowdy night club to the vast Wyoming ranch, to the luxurious Park Avenue home. And It is one picture with a swing as big as its title. It is drawing very good houses.

**DAYBREAK."
Choice of one's hair arrangement bas as strong a power in creating a defined personality as selection of the gown.
who knows the "Windy City" Landfield does.
To add to the realism of the picture, which opens to-morrow at the King's Theatre, Lanfield took the principals, including Loretta Young, John Wayne, Lew Cody, Joyce Compton and Joan Marsh to his native tow and filmed the exterior shots which are seen in
the Alm.
" Girls Lost" tells the amusing story of three young maidens, from three small towns, who come to the big city in search of life and romance. One was a gold digger, one. Innocent and trusting, and the third in her desire to help her friends find the happiness they were seeking found it for herself.
