The tallowing friends of the hostess composed the guest Hit tar the affairV Hlasaa atty Aas Raniraa Jam WaW Danthy HUM Jaaato Mate Margarat Clurmsa PkyUla Jran Fslkrlfht Ruts twot Sola Re vita Marjarta Raflnraafl Martha Jana Panama A fruit cocktail which le little "different" made by arranging sections of peeled grapefruit on lettuce leave end pouring a little dressing, such ii mrwd with oyeten and shrimp, over ths whole Util 1 Fl'JEK the long and virtually unbroken procession of prison, monster and sex talkies which have left their mark upon us, we welcome 'with open arms such a piece of exquisite madness as "Manhst-tan Farads' which is now showing at the OlUloa theater. Although a story about a theatrical costume shop owned by Winnie Lightner Winnie Lightner and her husband, the real purpose of the picture Is that of satirising the ways and manners of certain Broadway show producers, brothers, who are represented In the picture by the comedy team of Smith and Dale who call themselves Jake and Lou Mandel. Although the edge Is somewhat removed from the satite by the un-fsmlllarity of we people out here in the open spaces with the actions of show producers, It Is still hilarious farce which, as we said, mounts upward until It reaches the point of madness. Winnie Lightner owns a theatrical costume shop done In modernistic style and filled with employes In gay uniforms which gives the place a musical comedy atmosphere.

Charles Butterworth Is the head of the research department who supplies his quota of laughs with his vague type of humor. Bobby Watson portrays a type which has been satirised often on the stage but seldom on the screen, namely, the pansy. As a costume designer who stamps his foot and says "darn" when he Is forced to use cerise when he wonted to use maroon, he will amuse some. Others will Just wonder what he Is all about. Due to the Infidelity and trickery of her husband, Winnie's costume shop Is about to go on the rocks She resorts to a far-fetched piece of strategy In foisting upon the Mandel brothers a lunatic who calls himself Vassalia Vaslloff.

She tells them he le famous Russian producer. Ignorant and Impressed, the producers go to great lengths to Induct Vaslloff to pradU cjnsriww far ardm thousands of dollars worth of costumes Ha pays 110,000 of their money for two white elephants and then decides to use ostriches Instead. Hie has all the seats removed from the theater and decides that the audience shall sit upon the stags Thinking he Is a genius, the Mandel brother go for It aD. He decides to put the orchestra in tbe balcony and part of the cast In the orchestra pit. The orchestra win use no Instruments They will hum Instead.

The upshot of it all is that, although the costume business Is saved, the MaOdel brothers are ruined and farced to go back into the eheeee manufacturing business Smith and Dale, whom we have never considered very fumy In the various shorts they have made, are at their best as the Mandel brothers, Winnie Lightner gives a good performance In a straight role. But, although his name is not even listed on the billing, the man who plays Vaslloff, the mad genius, steals the show. Dinner Bridge To Be Given This Evening JR. AND MRS. BYRON FORRESTER, TIC East Loren street, will entertain with an attractive dinner In their home thia evening at 7:10 o'clock, complimentary ta number of their Mends.
