TOWN HALL. Conrad Nagel and Myrna Loy are co-stairs in “The Girl From Chicago,” the greatest Warner-Master melodrama, at the Town Hail tonight. Kay Enright directed this underworld masterpiece, which was taken from “Business Is Best,” the Arthur Somers Roche detective story. Graham Baker did the scenario, and the subject is the spectacular career of a iSouthern girl, who comes to the great city to free her brother fom the clutch of an underworld gang who have caused bis sentence to death. Thrilling and absorbing, but with the admixture of humor and human kindness without which any play is untrue, “The Girl From Chicago” is meeting with tremendous success. It is not a picture of evil for evil’s sake, but of love battling- against the- forces of evil, to win all that makes life worth' while. The “Girl Front Chicago,” won not only her brother’s freedom, but the love of the man she believed to be a leader among the crooks. With comedy and News. Usual prices.
On Monday “Remembrance,” a clever and hu|morous story of typical English problems, among war scarred men -and women will be screened. At usual prices.
