TIE FIRST BANK OF CORDOVA THE PIONEER INSTITUTION OF CORDOVA AND COPPER RIVER VALLEY SHIRLEY MASON HERE LAST TIME TONIGHT; ‘EXTRAVAGANCE’ NEXT He accused her of' marrying him for his money. And it was true. He also accused her of flirt ing, but how could he know that she had kept their marriage secret, even from her own people? She was proud, like all perfect heroines, and she quit him on the spot. But wait a minute. The divorce court wasn't the end after all, though they headed in that direc tion. Something happened, and within a week she was back again, joyously facing the whole big world, a loved and losing wife. The answer? Oh yes, of course,—we’re talking about the “Rescuing Angel,” played by bewitching little Shirley Mason, and repeated for the last time at the Empress tonight. “Extravagance,” playing Sunday night only, is not an allegory, as the title might suggest. It's a vivid pic ture of modern life,—life not as it should be, but as it is. You'll like “Extravagance.” It’s not in the least preachy; you know a hundred people like the chief char acters;' the moral isn't drawn for you, you will have to find it for yourself. And it’s worth finding. Lat copy of the Pathe News, a sparkling little comedy, “Why Get a Divorce,” and one of those clever monologs complete Sunday's pro gram.
