Wednesday the feature will be Marie Prevost with Douglas Fairbanks Jr. in "Man Bait." VILLAGE THEATRE "The Cruise of the Jasper B," star- ring Rod LaRocque, is a DeMille pro- duction coming to the Village theatre The plot is by Don Marquis, author of the Old Soak." It is a comedy-drama, unusual in character and presentation. It in- volves the story of the indifferent des- endent of a family of swashbuckling buccaneers, who must either marry on the deck of the "Jasper B" or loose his fortune. When he awakens on the morning of the day he must marry, he does not have the least idea who his wife is to be. The events that follow in rapid succession are side-splitting and dramatically gripping. "Stranded in Paris" 1s another of the "Campus Flirt's" big productions. 3ebe Daniels seems to just fit into a romantic comedy and this production is not by any means one of her worst --if she ever had "a worst." As a timid brow-beaten shop girl, she wins a trip to Paris and becomes stranded without a cent. Mistaken for a well known countess, her adventures take from one hilarious situation to another until finally . . .. !

"The Canadian," featuring the in- comparable Thomas Meighan, is a drama of the Canadian wheat fields where a shift in the wind can mean a fortune or failure, and of an aristo- cratic Englishwoman who is tossed ymong the stern realities of life and conquered by an unpolished he-man. THE VARSITY Mary Pickford experienced the most strenuous week of her entire picture career while making "Sparrows" the United Artist corporation picture now For days she was buried deep in a swamp, working in mud up to her knees, climbing trees with a baby weighing thirty pounds on her back, and lifting heavy children over treach- erous bogs. During all this time Miss Pickford was carrying one third of her own weight on her back. Many times she fell into the swamp with the baby on her back and had to be rescued by workmen. The Paramount Picture, "New York," will be shown at the Varsity next Wednesday and Thursday. Colleen Moore in "Twinkle Toes" will come Monday and Tuesday. THE NORSHORE The stirring history of the founding of the great Canadian Northwest Mounted Police, an army of a few who conquered the lawlessness of an almost unexplored empire within the confines of the Dominion of Canada, has been reproduced on the screen by Cosmo- politan and will be seen Sunday at the Norshore theater under the title "The Flaming Forest." The picture, directed by Reginald Barker, famous for his direction of great out-of-doors films, is a screen adaptation by Waldemar Young of James Oliver Curwood's immortal story of the establishing of law and order in a territory of three hundred thou- sand square miles by some three hun- dred brave men who dared death daily and always "got their man." THE GRANADA Leatrice Joy in "Nobody's Widow," opens at the Marks Bros.' new Gran- ada theater Monday, January 31, for a week's run. It's a delightfully sophis- ticated comedy-drama in the best Avery Hopwood vein, and that means it will appeal to the laity as well as to the cognoscenti. On the stage, Benny Meroff will have a prominent guest in Bobby Mc- Lean, world's champion ice skater, who will headline a marvelous super- production, "Aurora Borealis." This promises to be one of the most unusual polar shows ever staged in Chicago.
