STATE THEATRE PETONE
“Three Smart Girls Grow Up” Deanna Durbin, in her brightest, funniest, and happiest picture,' “Three Smart Girls Grow Up,’’ which will begin a neason at the State Theatre, Petoue, today, has been lifted from humble, or middle-class surroundings into society opulence. Deanna could not drees well as the child of a poor musician, but now she is a multi-millionaire’s daughter; therefore she can dress—and does —but in her new and less simple surroundings she preserves the demtire comedy and the romping gaiety revealed in her four earlier pictures. Whether it is considered as the latest in a quintet of Durbin pictures, or whether it is considered by itself alone, ‘‘Three Smart GirJa Grow Up" is a joyous, satisfying picture, and -presents a charming phase in the always .interesting story of feminine adolescence.
Included among the songs which Deanna sings are “The Last Hose of Summer.” “Invitation to the Dance,” “Because’’ and “La Capinera.”
