CAPITOL THEATRE, MIKAMAR.
■ Gary Cooper in the title role of "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town," screening for an extended season of two nights at the Capitol Theatre, gives one of his-best performances as a young, unsophisticated man from the country who suddenly finds himself the heir to a vast fortune. Mr. Deeds arrives m New York from the country village after inheriting his fortune and is pursued by newspaper reporters as front-page-news. At the same time various organisations, including an opera society and two firms of lawyers, make strenuous endeavours to part Mr. Deeds from his legacy. There is a most striking denouement which brings the picture to a happy ending. Jean Arthur supporting Gary Cooplr, also gives a very fine performance.
