Craterian Picture
Attractive Feature

Carolina negro singing, beautiful
southern plantations, and along with
everything else old fashioned a ro

mure soul, takes over planting to
bacco as her role In the production,
"Carolina." In which she Is now ap

co-starred with Lionel Barrymore.
An Interesting characterization of
Uncle Bob, a Civil war hero. Is given
by Lionel Barrymore. while Robert
Young takes the part of Janet's
sweetheart, a son of the plantation
owner.
Outstanding in the production to
the negro singing, and music of the
dance. Stcpln Fotchlt, the negro who
Is shifted from the position of stable
man to butler, adds a lot to the
show for his drawling voice typifies
his indolence.

choose a driving rainstorm and s
runaway as the setting for telling
the wealthy girl that he didn't love
her. IK.

attention-arresting manner. It tells
the story of BUI Bslley, a bonds
man, ally of every type of crook from

Conflict arises when the girl and
Ruby's bank-robbing brother, Drury,
become Infatuated. It Is a tremend
ous thrill to the society girl to be
loved by a bank robber out on 150,

Jump his ball and entrusts her with
delivering to Bslley the gold bonds
