You're Next (2 reels) (Universal — Comedy) (Review — February 16). "A Perfect Lady" (Pathe — Comedy— One Reel) Charles Chase in this comedy appears as a female impersonator in an amateur show who is forced to wear his costume home. He meets with varied experiences, and is such an attractive looking "woman'' that the men all want to make dates with him. While there are some amusing situations, it is hardly up to the standard of the best of this series. — C. S. S. "Oh! Captain" (Educational — Comedy — One Reel) To escape "porch shieks" Auntie takes her niece on an ocean voyage. Before the ship has cast off there are some novel water scenes. Auntie's plunge from the hurricane deck into the oily water of the harbor and the antics of sailors will keep up audience pep. This is a Cameo Comedy directed by Albert Ray and featuring Cliff Bowes, Sid Smith and Virginia Vance. — T. W. "Easy Work " (Universal — Comedy — One Reel) Slim Summerville and Bobby Dunn engage in rivalry for a girl in this single reeler and Slim wins by forcing Bobby to marry an old maid. Then they are both broke and try to secure Slim's wife's necklace to sell. There is an average amount of amusement in this subject and the closing situation will strike many as being quite risque. — C. S. S. "A Tough Tenderfoot" (Universal — Series — Two Reels) The high standard of entertainment value reached in previous issues of the "Leather Pushers" is maintained in this one in which Kid Robertson is persuaded by a girl to stop off at a small town and "lick" a bully who according to her father's will is to become her husband if no one can outfight him. There is drama, good comedy "and pathos involving an abandoned baby and the usual snappy fight in the ring. — C. S. S. "Captain Kidder" (Path*: — Cartoon— One Reel) Cartoonist Paul Terry has handled this issue of the Aesop's Fables Cartoons in a manner which compares favorably with his previous offerings. There are the usual clever situations, which this time show the familiar dog, cat and mouse involved in a quest for buried treasure. Paul Terry fans will be pleased with this one. — C. S. S. "Quit Kidding" (Universal — Comedy* — Two Reels) In this Century Comedy, Buddy Messinger is cast as a messenger boy who in delivering a telegram gets mixed up in a hunt involving a treasure. He is waylaid, finally gets to the house, and gets mixed up in a variety of spooky experiences which involve disappearances, trap doors, etc. Buddy finds the important papers, brings about the arrest of the crooks and saves the treasure. There are several humorous situations and it is up to the standard of the average of this series. — C. S. S. "Rock-Bound Brittany" (Fox — Instructive — One Reel) A variety of interesting views of this French province are contained in this number. Though only a short distance from Paris, the vast difference in the customs and costumes of the inhabitants is striking. There are many striking views of the rock-bound coast, and additional interest is given the reel by views of Marshal Foch, the commander-in-chief of the Allies during the war, who has his home there. Of interest also are scenes of mysterious stone monuments, several hundred in number, whose origin and purpose are shrouded in antiquity. — C. S. S.
