MODISTE’S “TREASURES”
IN MUSICAL PRODUCTION
-x
“What the well-dressed wo
man will wear” is one of the
many attractive features of “The ;
Big Party,” the Fox Movietone *
musical offering which comes
to the screen of the Coliseum
Theatre next Thursday and Fri
day.
During the action in the spec
tacular modiste’s shop sequence,
a series of professional models
are seen displaying the latest
modes are seen displaying the'
iatest modes in afternoon gowns,
evening gowns and other femi- j
nine apparel as a background
for the delightful story. These
costumes, however, were not
merely selected from the stu
dio wardrobe, but were special
ly designed by the noted fashion j
creator, Sophie Wachner in ]
complete accordance with the
newest dictates for spring wear.
Tuesday and Wednesday
Is a poor young man honor
able or cowardly when he re
fuses to marry the girl he loves,
and who loves him, because of
her father’s wealth?
This pertinent question moti
vates much drama and some
comedy in the course of “RICH
PEOPLE,” a Pathe dialogue
feature starring Constance Ben
nett; “RICH PEOPLE” is a dis
tinct departure from the av^r- j
age story of the social upper
crust. Its characters are likable.

THREE SISTERS
Mother love and sacrifice, a
gainst the grim, unseen back
ground of the World War. The
dramatic, appealing story of a
woman whose three daughters
are taken from her by the in
comprehensible mysteries of
war. She struggles gamely to
ward happiness; finally achieves
it. Handled with warmth and
realism of Sloane’s earlier
“Hearts in Dixie” at the Coli
seum Sunday and Monday.

“INGAGI” MEANS GORILLA
-x- |
The African word, “Ingagi”
means Gorilla and this is ap
parently a development down
through the years, for many
different spellings of the name
applied to the giant anthro-;
poids, have been found.
“Ingagi” the famous motion
picture of wild African life, com
bined with an unbelieveable tri
bal legend of the Congo, will be
the attraction at the Coliseum
Theatre Friday and Saturday
and will doubtless prove the re
cord attraction there for the
season. Everywhere it has
smashed records and with the
great amount of controversy it
has elicited vftll be waited with
interest here.
, Incidentally, it may be stated
that gorillas are the only mem
bers of the Simian tribe, that
have heels like man which en
ables them to walk erect like
human beings.
They are essentially vegeta
rians but in captivity can be
taught to eat chicken. HoweveV,,
they seldom live long in cap- I
tivity. As a rule they are less in
telligent than the chimpanzee
but are nearer to man in some
other aspects.
