STATE THEATRE.
Theatregoers who. have become accustomed- to: seeing' Janet Gayhor in semi-juvenile roles will be surprised to find, her a more mature and entirely different^-personality as Molly liarkins in "The Farmer Takes a Wife," which is now showing at the State Theatre. The story is made at the time when the Erie Canal took all the cross-con-tinental carrying trade of the Northern States, and when the railroad, a new and; threatening rival, was a bone of'contention between the barge people. Molly: La'rkins is seen as cook to Jotham Klbre (Charles Bickford), the bully of the canal. She' has* thoughts of marrying, him until .she meets Dan Harrow (Henry Fonda), who is working on another canal barge. Their romance makes a delightful picture.
