the love parade
Th Frenchman that loves like Gilbert sings like
Vallec and has a sophisticated humor of ilw Mcnjou
sort plays in a mythical kingdom burlesque titled
"The Love Parade'' starting ar the Sooner Sunday
Maurice Chevalier who thrilled (lie weaker sex
with ‘ Innocents of Paris" comes back as the Paris
man about town who returns to Svlvania where
Queen Louise (Jeanette McDonald) is holding
down the queenship first rate But the royal cabinet
thinks that a queen isn't enough for an up and com-
ing country like Sylvania so they are all tickled pink
when Maurice takes the queen for better or for worse
But Maurice is about to believe it was for worse
because as the queen’s husband he is the prize sec-
ond fiddler around the palace He threatens to walk
out on Queenie but when she comes around with her
resistance all weakened and promises to make him
King in fact he gives in and they clinch
Lupino Lane and Lillian Roth as the servants to
the royal pair furnish what corned v -Maurice leaves
for them The cleverest songs are "Nobody’s Using
It Now” and "Anything To Please the Queen”
“Dream Lover” has better sentiment than the titular
theme song
A clever burlesque that furnishes a relief from the
courtroom backstage and Western plots now in
vogue

the older generation
The worm has turned After years crammed full
of loudies and mummies depicting the fire fervor
and ardour of flaming youth some director got the
idea of putting reverse English on the old reliable
and now we have “The Marriage Playground”
which "concerns the revolt of the younger genera-
tion against the divorce-crazed thrill-thirsty behav-
iour of their ciders”
Perhaps Edith' Wharton is to blame for this rev-
olutionary idea for she wrote the book which the
picture is taken from and if it hasn't been taken too
far from it "The Marriage Playground” may some-
what resemble her novel "The Children" '
Mary Brian and Fredric March are the youthful
leads while Huntley Gordon and Lily an Tashman

This one returns to the flaming youth formula1

night visit to the villain’s apartment in pajamas to

sister She doesn't get the letters but she docs get
caught shinnying down the balcony and nobody not
even her sweeties will nominate her for the Purity
League But the brave little girl is undaunted and
decides to fake a holdup to get the letters
Meanwhile little sister suspects that all is not roses
and she takes a gun and goes for Mr Villain ' She'
fires just as big sister’s friend turns off the lights
and feminine to the last she hits big sister
June's wound is no killing matter so she is able
to cuss out sister for playing around with men with

By this time tlx Sherlock has arrived and found
out that our Helen is the daughter of the medium
that she once visited the lodgings of the murdred
man and that you can’t tell about a blond Helen's
spiritualistic mother' persuades the detective’ to hold
