CAPITOL
“PAINTING THE TOWN” “Painting the Town,” now being shown at the Capitol Theatre, is a rollicking farce comedy of a small town hick who “crashes” Broadway with a score of trick inventions. In the role of bucolic inventor, Glenn Tryon is almost the whole show and establishes himself as one of the most promising comedians in the business. William James Craft, the director, also wins a
new standing in the industry by reason of the picture, say those who have seen it. The story, which in no small way contributes to the laughmaking value of the picture, was written biHarry O. Hoyt. Members of the all star cast, in ad-
dition to Patsy Ruth Miller and Glenn Tryon, include George Fawcett. Charles Gerrard, Sidney Bracy, Monte Collins and Max Ascher. “Ritzy.” starring Betty Bronson, will j also be shown to-night.
