As the Motion Picture flashlight
Is thrown upon the wall, I see old Johnnie Bunny,
The funniest of them all.
He's fat, 'tis true, but when he acts Oh, Johnnie, I am strong for you,
He's sure to make a hit ; You always make me laugh ;
There's one thing yet he has to do — You're "Jake" with me as long as you
That is to have a fit. Are with the Vitagraph.
We have many letters from children, voting and talking to us earnestly about "Dear John Bunny." Could any one desire sweeter applause?

I cannot help but adore him
When he's flashed upon the screen, For a better-looking fellow
No one has ever seen.
