MAJESTIC

“GLORIFYING THE AMERICAN GIRL” Fiorenz Ziegfeld, Mary Eaton, Eddie Cantor, Helen Morgan and Rudy Vallee—picture these names in association with a moving picture, and you have some idea of the magnitude and spectacular magnificence of “Glorifying the American Girl,” Paramount's production now running to capacity houses at the Majestic Theatre. Fiorenz Ziegfeld’s “Glorifying the American Girl,” was supervised personally by the great glorifier himself. Mary Eaton, premier danseuse of a number of Ziegfeld stage shows, and the leading lady in the recent comedy success, “The Cocoanuts,” with the Four Marx Brothers, has the star role in “Glorifying the American Girl.” Eddie Cantor appears in an inimitable Cantor comedy skit in a revue sequence of the picture, in which appear also Helen Morgan and Rudy Vallee. Much of the dazzling spectacle of the production is presented in the full colours of the improved Technicolour Process. The show is a breath-taking extravaganza of lavisli-handed showmanship. There are gathered for the edification of the eye, the most beautiful girls in America in what is said to be the most gorgeous array of dancing the movie world has ever seen. It is a picture that you must see if you would be up on your New Show World. Among the entertaining supporting items is a. talkie comedy, a second gazette, a scenic with New Zealand views, and finally music by Mr. Whiteford—Waugh’s Orchestra.
