Starring the inimitable W. C. Fields the leading picture this week is "You're Telling Me." With only the suggestion of a plot the film supplies a background for the antics of Fields, pantomine actor extraordinary and wisecracking humorist. As Sam Bisbee, local inventor, he supplies the quiet little town of Crystal Springs with gossip galore and is a match for the town's society leader whose son falls in love with the "unmentionable" Bisbee's daughter. Jean Marsh plays the daughter and is charming in the role. Larry Crabbe as the son of the society dame is adequate but colorless. Though many of the scenes are overdone nevertheless the antics of Fields never grow tiresome. The picture is recommended to arouse the student bored with exams from the lethargy of the season.

As a companion picture to the rompings of Fields, a story of rural farm life in Maine is a pleasant counterpart. "As The Earth Turns" features no distinguished actors or actresses but those taking the roles are convincing and well cast. Heroine of the film is Jean Muir whose pleasant optimism and charming personality give the picture a realistic touch. The story concerns the everyday life of farmers, their hopes, fears, and monotonous routine. The intricate situations brought about by having members of one family living in close proximity to one another are portrayed adequately and with some skill. Although the film is not starting nevertheless the atmosphere is more or less unusual and the story not too blackened. The characters give it the realistic touch so necessary for a picture with so simple a plot.

A Silly Symphony based on the story of the Pied Piped of Hamelin is also on the program together with Seven Souvenirs. Both supply a pleasure to the rest of the program.
