Pathex Motion Pictures U Our GANG" Comedies Your own children will tell you of the escapades and adventures of Mary, Mickey, "Fatty," Jackie, "Farina" and the others of this famous troupe of juvenile entertainers and of their capacity for exciting laughter.

Their exploits are legion. You may show them in your home in "Back Stage," as hired "assistants" to the traveling magician, "aiding" the performer b ■ divulging to the audience all his carefully guarded professional secrets to the complete ruin of his exhibition. Watch them in "Derby Day," where they hold their own race track classic with every species of animal for mounts, finally finishing the "race" on foot. Or journey with them to the hospital in "Laughing Gas," where their visit upsets the calm of the infirmary and causes the staff untold woe. Then see Mickey, confined with a fever in "Castor Oil," visited by "the Gang," who miss the "Red Grange" of their football team, ana stage a practice game in the ward, throw the hospital into an uproar and send Mickev back to bed for more doses of the hated oil. Show any of the "Our Gang" comedies you wish. Your audience will enjoy them all.
