MARY AND DOUG CO-STARS

IN COMEDY.

THE HONGKONG - TELEGRAPH, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 5, 1930.

Doug and Mary, together. Pic- ture tans have been waiting for this for years! And now they can be both seen and heard together. The two outstanding figures in the film world, each a great attraction, have now joined forces to give theatre-goers a measure of enter tainment full to the brim and over- flowing. This week all roads will lead to the Queen's Theatre. The first joint appearance of these grant stars will be in a glorious all-talk- ing frolic of love and laughter, Shakespeare's

"Taming of the Shrew." This is not only the lightest and frothiest of Shukes- pearean works, but is the story on which all the modern tales of cave men are based.

Directed and adapted by Sam Taylor, the picture has been super- bly mounted and costumed. oug- plays the part of a young man who sete out to win a girl famous for a temper so wild and stormy that no man dares to come near hier, Mary has the role of the beautiful Kathe rine who is not afraid of any man and matches her wits and good right arm against any one who dares try to woo her.

The whole story revolves around the attempts of Doug to win the girl who will not be won by any method ever tried. He finally finds a way but not until the audience is carried through a series of the most laughable situations.

Written as a farce and always played as such on the Shakespeare- anvstage, "Taming of the Shrew" is one of the broadest of comedies and promises a laugh feast for movie-fans.

Miss Pickford and Mr. Fair- banks are supported by a notable rast that includes Edwin Maxwell, Gentfrey Wardwell. Joseph Caethorne, Clyde Cook and Dorothy

Jordan.

The engagement at the Queen's Theatre begins to-day and since it will only remain a few days. it is not likely that everybody in the city will be able to see the most important motion picture of this or any previous season, and it has been suggested by the management of the Queen's Theatre that every one who can do so, attend the early

shows.

The deeper than the usual shape, and while one side holds the cigarettes, the other is covered by a thin layer of gold on the inside, and will hold practically half a bottle of whiskey. The case is made of goid, and a small knob at the top unscrews to reveal the Hquid inside,

New Necklaces.

Although most dress accessories have already been made to match, we have not yet seen a necklace designed on the same lines as a Futtonhole. However, these are now appearing in the shops, and one example shows a choker neck- lace composed of tiny clover leaves of blue glass, to match a spray of similar blue leaves fastened to a larger leaf at the back.

Lucky Pigs.

Although modern women scoff at superstition, many still cherish various animal mascots. The lucky pig is one of the most popu- lar of these animals, and is now making an appearance the dressing table. A set of brushes, enmbs, and hand mirror, is made of ivory, and on the back of each article is placed a tiny tucky pig of amber.
