Percival, Hank Mann, Vester Pagg, Joseph Rickson and eight of the liveliest youngsters in pictures. SUNDAY PICTURE BENEJJT. “The Great Love,” Marshall Neil:in’s latest production for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. has established his reputation'as “The Mark Twain of the Screen. ’ ’ This new picture is playing at the Sunday night picture benefit in the Opera House. It is the most hilarious vagary of fancy ever concocted and is one of the most brilliant comedy hits of the season. MONDAY AND TUESDAY. A sailing ship tossed in stormy seas off the Siberian coast —a raging fight on deck —maddened men battling furiously in the cabin below while towering mountains of ice lock the vessel in a death-grip—an escape as the vessel is crushed like an eggshell between gigantic bergs—these are a few 'of the teeming thrills piled upon each other in the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer ndaptation of Rex Beach’s novel, “The Barrier,” coming to the Opera House on Monday and Tuesday.
