True they are much discussed and might be said to be outstanding proâ€" ductions, but they have. no especial value for the young and impressionâ€" able, and should be restricted more or less to mature audiences. The manâ€" agement has the interests of children at heart in his plans for the Saturâ€" day= matinee, and is providing. an "Our Gang" comedy, an animated. carâ€" toon, as well as the usual serial, and there is a Laurel and Hardy comâ€" edy listed for next week. Briefly, here are the comments on coming pictures? "Caught .. Short," a â€" farceâ€"comedy dealing with the rise and fall of the stock market as it affects two boardâ€" ing house keepers. Marie Dressler‘s inimitable acting is hilariously and The pictures listed for the coming week by some freak ofâ€"chance, which is unfortunatcly univoidable, have litâ€" tle appeal to those who are seeking the highest standard in movies. Stateaid will be <asked by the north shore towns in promoting the traffic relief program. Expressions favoring the project are said to have been obtained from highway officials. A portion of the gasoline tax money will be asked to aid in promoting the new arterial highway, which it is hoped will be ready for traffic within two years. D. A. R. Better Film Committee Reviews * * Current Movie Plays DISCUSSES ROUTE 42 CHANGES NORTHWARD Thursday, July 24, 1930 From Laure!l avenue the route would be north along First street to the intersection with Green Bay road and _ Vine avenue, thence north through Highwood, past military reâ€" servation at Fort Sheridan to Lake Forest, paralleling the North Westâ€" ern railroad on Western avenue to a point north of the business district. Widen Highway Widening of Green Bay road in Highland Park from _ Northmoor Country club north to Central avâ€" enue is also planned within the next few years. This step will be taken as part of the McCormick road exâ€" tension ‘program. y Green Bay road has been widened a width of 40 feet from the Lake county line north to the Northmoor club, where it meets the old paveâ€" ments installed over 12 years ago. From there automobiles could either pass under a viaduct back to Sheridan road or continue north to Waukegan on Green Bay road by deâ€" touring four blocks to the: west. (ireen Bay road is now a 36â€"foot highway from Lake Bluff north to theâ€" state line. Extend Road The only new construction required by this plan would be extension of Green Bay roadâ€" from Washington avenue, Highwood, past Fort Sheriâ€" dan to the intersection with Western avenue in Lake Forest. The existing pavement in Highwood _ should be videned to 36 feet also, according to highway engineers. road at Laurel avenue, Highland Park.

"Young Man of Manhatton," with Claudette Colbert and Charles Rugâ€" gles. Newspaper story glorifying the "gay life" with young married pair agreeing to be "broadntinded" about each other‘s conduct. Good work by the principals camnot redeem the mess. Adults. "The Divorcee," Norma Shearer‘s excellent acting seems wasted on a theme which deals with life presented ts a continuous party, dotted with marriage and divorce, with jazz and booze as the only resource when trou« ble comes.
