PRINCE EDWARD THEATRE.
"DIVORCE IN THE TAMELY"
Pathos and comedy, thrills and drama, mingle in Jackie Cooper's latest and perhaps most interesting appearance on the talking screen in Metro-Goldwyn - Mayer's "Divorce in the Family" at the Prince Edward Theatre next Thursday. The story is a vivid drama in which divorce and its relation to the children who are affected by it is the motivating theme of a swift-m-nitg plot. Jackie is the child of divorce. His mother has remarried, uud he has a] step-father, a doctor. He is torn be-' tween love of his mother and father,, and cannot understand his stepfatherl any more than the latter can understand him.. He is first rebellious, then becomes despondent—^but finally, partly through the help of his real father, learns that his stepfather is his friend, and that here is no love like his mother's.
