"The Private Life of Henry VIII"

One of the most cleverly staget scenes In The Private Life of Vill" showing at the Oriental Theatre an Sunday, Monday and Tuesday is that of the execution of Anno Boleyn, the Becond wife of England's amatory Tudor. While a tragedy for Anne, the cutting off of her lovely head is made n comedy for the audience through the handing by Alexander Korda of the mol scenes and the scenes within the castle, where the King is prepar- ing for a stealthy marriage to Jane Seymour so soon as Anne is dead. Merle Oberson, who plays the Queen with rare good taste and spiritual to Insight, bears a facial likeness portraits of the ill-fated Anne that is really startling. This resemblance is, of course, greatly enhanced by the historical accuracy of her gown and jewelry, even to the necklace with pendant initial "B" in large matched pearls. "The Private Life of Henry VIII" is a uicture no one looking for the superlative in entertainment should miss. Though its subject is historical, its treatment is humorous, Kay and insouciant, with Charles Laughton giving a superb portrait of England's merrie monarch with four of his six wives.

"The Match King" Immediately upon the heels of the most amazing International financial swindle in modern business history comes First National's dramatic pic- ture "The Match King," paralleling in screen druma the astonishing story one man's skilful manipulation of matches into colossal bubble that broke only when general business de pression revealed the crookedness of the fanciul machinations. Seidon has the sercun offered a more drama- tic subject than "The Match King." played by Warren Willlam, and never has an actor and a "fatter" part than ind title role. Out of this real e world-catastrophe, Author Thorvnid- Aon and Adapters Houston Branch and Sidney Sutherland have concocted an intensely dramatic screen play. War- ren William, whose work in. "The Mouthpiece" and "The Dark Horse" mundo him one of the most popular bright lights nmong the newer stars, plays the title role. Li Damita, petite and intriguing, is equally vital to the story as the une unattainable objective in the "Match King'" Bfe. Damite,Glenda Farrell, Juliette Comp- ton and Claire Dodd share in the wearing of gorgeous gowns created for this picture,,liardle Albright, Inroid Huber, Sponcer Charters and numerous others in the long rosier ut excellent players who appear in "The Match King" were all elected for their roles with particular caro, Howard Bretherton directed with William Kelghley an dialoguo sesis- tant.

the germs of tooth decay!

Buried beneath an ever-forming film, this invisible enemy attacks enamel and destroys the part beneath. To fight decay, you must remove film every day.

You don't need a microscope to

pick out film-stained teeth. The naked eye can see them, for film is dis- coloring.

But where the naked eye sees ugli ness, the microscope sees danger. Mag- nify film 1,000 times and you will see living germs of many kinds.

Destroyers of lovely teeth Lactobacilli are "germs of tooth decay." They feed on particles of food that cling to teeth. They give off acid that dissolves tooth enamel, then devours the part beneath. Finally the nerve in reached.

The film scraped from a single tooth may easily contain millions of living organisma. The only way science accepts of removing germs from teeth is to remove the proteo- tre films-cost in which they multiply. Fiks defies all ordinary ways of brushing. That's
