grand plans for producing her brother's play!
Sitting at the piano Ann discusses Pryor with her brother between the lines of the song she is singing.
"He doesn't look much like a producer, does he?" she says sotto voce.
"Producers don't look much like producers nowadays," Jack advises her.
"But he will put on your play?" anxiously.
"Well ... it wouldn't be nice of him not to after eating our dinner!"
So pinned to the wall at last Roger gets out his own satire on Napoleon and, with the help of local talent, shakes out a production that is so good that, when Hall accidentally sees it — well, what do you think? And you're quite right, too! He breaks down, agrees to produce the thing, Roger lets Haley take the credit, and Ann lets Roger take her on a honeymoon!
Eddie Buzzell directs.

PARAMOUNT
Pardon us if Paramount seems to be doing all the work this month, but it really was their own idea, so help us!
And here are those two boys, Towne and Baker, again, who must ride bicycles with portable typewriters lashed to the handlebars, they get around that fast!
In this one Loretta Young is seen as an American working girl who has come to Shanghai to visit a very wealthy aunt.
• Upon the death of his mother, a Manchurian princess, and his father, an exRussian nobleman, Charles Boyer stops hauling rickshas, denounces the lost cause of the exiled Russians and seeks a job through his late father's connections with a bank.
He is an immediate success, and when Fate sends him to Loretta's apartment on business, they immediately fall in love and she spurs him on to undreamed-of heights in the financial world.
Seeing the lay of the land, Boyer's friend, an ex-ambassador to Russia, warns him against an alliance with a white girl, telling that his (Boyer's) own mother had committed suicide because of her unhappiness with his white father.
So, giving it a good think, Boyer confesses his background and then runs away to his northern China outpost. Loving him in spite of everything, Loretta follows him, tells him nothing matters and convinces him that he should return to Shanghai.
But once there, determined to make the best of it and be happy, the old exambassador sticks his nose into the machinery again and makes them see for their own good that such an alliance would be an unhappy one.
Seated in a ricksha, Boyer and Miss Young go through a scene under the direction of James Flood.
"The first thing you've got to do," says Loretta, "is forget what you used to be. There's no mud on your boots now. You're on the top of the world, not under it. Am I right?" "Quite," Boyer agrees. "Now, tell me how daring you've been!"
"I took your money . . . and Mr. Sherwood's."
"That's right. We practically flung it at you!"
"I margined every dollar of it. . . ." "We gave you carte bla?iche, didn't we?"
"But — the stocks I margined may go down — "
"And — the stocks you margined may go up!"
"You have great faith in me," Boyer

gives her one of those lovely looks (you know, girls?). "Why have you this faith, may I ask?"
"I'm a woman who believes in hunches," Loretta returns the look (you know, boys?). "I have a strong hunch about you!"
And leaving those two gazing into each other's eyes we hurried away, wishing we could lose about ten pounds and look as lovely as Loretta, even with trying hard, which she doesn't need to.
THE BLACK If that doesn't
BOOM do the trick, then
givealookat Boris Karloff, who continues to frighten little
children in this shiver story by Arthur
Strawn!
Carved in stone over the massive castle doorway is the motto of the De Berghman family: "I End as I Began."
Founded by twin brothers, the superstitious family believes that it will end with the advent of another set of male twins, for the silly (or maybe we're wrong!) reason that, years and years before, the original De Berghman Cain and Abel did each other in!
So another pair arrives, via the Stork Special, and the entire countryside goes around with raised eyebrows and "tcktcking" their heads off!
Years later Karloff, eldest of the twins, occupies the old castle as Count, while his younger brother (also Karloff) is away traveling and at school.
Hated by the peasants for his sinister appearance, mysterious doings in the castle and the unaccountable disappearance of persons last seen within the old pile of ruins, Karloff is the object of mortal, but unsuccessful, attacks and is saved only when the kid (by a few minutes) brother puts in an appearance.
Knowing that he's in the dog house, Karloff bumps off his young twin, throws him into a pit which (just between you and me!) is the secret of the Black Room, and pretends he's the nice one.
Discovering that he's plenty that way for Marian Marsh, Karloff's old flame Katherine DeMille storms the castle, corners her erstwhile sweetie-pie and says:
"You'll find you can't get rid of me so easily! You've got it all planned, haven't you? — She's to be your wife — your Countess!"
"Well — ?" says Karloff, very nastily too.
"You're not, you hear. I'll put a stop to it!"
"Come, come, now . . ." Karloff slips his iron hand into a velvet glove. "Don't put yourself on a level with her. After all, she's General Hassell's niece, and you're just — "
" — something you don't want any more!"
"You understand me perfectly. It's almost as if you were inside my mind!"
"Inside your mind?" desperately. "I know something more than that. I've been inside the Black Room!"
And right here Karloff gets menacing. "What ... do you know . . . about the Black Room?" he leers.
Well, you could sell Katherine down the river! "Nothing— NOTHING!" she declares. But it's too late.
"You've been spying on me!" Karloff advances on the terrified girl.
And did we run? And are we tired? Anyhow, we passed sixteen galloping rabbits on the way out! And Director Roy William Neill sitting there, as calm as you please.
