96 CLASS 4 — Comedi^ and Juvenile In this picture Charlie's experiences in a department store, particularly with the escalator, while somewhat disconcerting to himself, are very amusing to an audience. Those who enjoy Chaplin will find the "Floorwalker" a good slapstick comedy, featuring him in one of his best productions, 705 feet — on 2 reels. Rental $2.50 4024 Code GADU Easy Street Mutual Featuring Charlie Chaplin Charlie, a down-and-outer, wanders into Hope Mission where he is reformed, his first good act being to give back the collection plate which he had stolen. He then joins the police force and is assigned to Easy Street, the city's v/orst section from which as a regular thing the policemen are brought home on stretchers. But in a characteristic manner he overcomes the ring leader of the ruffians and rescues and wins the beautiful mission worker who had reformed him. A regular Chaplin comedy of the kind everybody likes. Uproariously funny from end to end. 703 feet — on 2 reels Rental $2.50 4025 Code GADAR The Immigrant Mutual Featuring Charlie Chaplin One of Chaplin's best subjects, finds him on an immigrant ship in which Charlie is a steerage passenger. Some funny seasick scenes on the deck are followed by a dining room scene taken in a heavy sea. Amusing accidents to food and the diners occur. Arrived in the so-called "Land of Liberty" we see the immigrants deprived of liberty by the arbitrary and rough methods of the immigration officers. On shore, Charlie enters a restaurant where he tries to satisfy his hunger on the proceeds of a half dollar which he has found on the street, only to later lose it unconsciously through a hole in his pocket. This half dollar has quite a checkered career before the waiter proves it to be counterfeit. Charlie meets his sweetheart unexpectedly in the restaurant, treats her to a square meal and, being without funds of his own, cleverly pays the check with a tip left for the waiter by another patron, and all ends well. While the photography in this subject is not of the best, the subject matter is so excruciatingly funny that it is sure to please. 724 feet— on 2 reels Rental $2.50 4035 Code GAFAR Robin Hood Junior Independent Featuring Frankie Lee and Peggy Cartwright Frankie is sick in bed and his little girl friend Peggy comes to bring him a story book to help him pass the long hours.

As Sir Guy mounted on his tiny Shetland Pony he fights in the tournament with Richard Coeur de Lion who is mounted on a huge war horse, and the discrepancy in the sizes of the knights and their mounts, tho ludicrous to the beholder, does not seem to him at all strange. As Robin Hood he rescues Maid Marian from the clutches of Prince For maximum enjoyment-^
