“TWO’S COMPANY.” The story “Two’s Company,” to be screened at the State Theatre tonight opens in New York. B. G. Madison, a wealthy business man, is reluctantly persuaded by his wife and daughter, and his lawyer, A 1 (Ned Sparks) to take a health trip to England. On board the liner they meet Muggridge (Gordon Harker), valet to the Earl of Warke.- Muggridge is travelling back'to England in charge of his master’s champion dog. Of course the Americans mistake Muggridge for the Earl. Madison’s daughtei', Julia (Mary ■ Brian) makes a Hit with the Earl’s son, Jerry (Patric Knowles), and fun begins when the Earl (an ardent butterfly collector) gets into holts with the fiery Madison. Muggridge and the lawyer, Al, take up the cudgels, and it isn’t until the lovers, Jerry and Julia, are in need of support, that the two get together and smooth matters out to an uproarious - climax. nareluctterkF : THE EMPRESS. ; The usual double feature programme at the Empress will be screened on Friday and Saturday evenings. “Second Wife” weaves a dramatic and vividly human story about the trials and adjustments necessary in making a success of a new marriage.
