MAORILAND PICTURES.

"STOP THAT MAN."

"Stop That Man," a Universal picture, has been secured by the Maoriland Theatre for Wednesday. It is a comedy of young love. Its cast, story, and director all contribute to the sparkling something that audiences call "youth." Arthur Lake and Barbara Kent, who enact the chief roles, are two of the youngest leading players in Hollywood: Although in pictures only-a short time they have become among the most sought after persons in the film colony.

The theme of the story too is one of youth. The boy who wanted to be a policeman because his two older brothers weie, expresses the ideal of vouth—to be big, and important. Pictures that have this feeling of vim and eagerness, characterized in youth, have proved to be the most popular with audiences this season. "Stop That Man," it is said, is arousing the greatest enthusiasm with the public.
