CLASS 4 — Comedies and Juvenile 97 John the Blackhearted after many thrilling fights, but is finally captured and is about to be executed when he wakes up and finds it all only a dream. An excellent story both for juveniles and grown ups. Good photography, lots of action and good, clean humor. 1169 feet— on 3 reels Rental $3.00 4052 Code GAKI A Kid Railroad Bray Here we are shown the smallest railroad in the world, that at Venice, California. In every respect the locomotive seems to be a miniature reproduction of the large passenger locomotives with which we are all familiar. A youthful engineer is shown going over the oiling, etc., and the miniature roundhouse and turntable are illustrated. Then the locomotive picks up a train of open observation cars principally occupied by children, and the spectator is taken for a ride on the train and also views it from several points en route. We are told that it is capable of making ten miles per hour on the down grade and has to take on water every two miles. 87 feet — on same reel with 1062, Among the Araucanians. Rental $1.25 4076 Code GANER The Vagabond Mutual Featuring Charlie Chaplin Charlie, a vagabond fiddler, gets into difficulties with some members of a German band and has to flee. Soon he comes to a Gypsy camp where he sees a young girl, the drudge of the Gypsies, being abused by them. He intercedes for her and in true Chaplin fashion overcomes the Gypsies and saves the girl, and then falls in love with her. But she meets and loves an artist, and poor Charlie is in despair. In spite of all of his efforts, his rival seems to lead in the girl's affections. Then she is identified and claimed by her wealthy mother from whom she had been stolen by the Gypsies, But to Charlie's delight she refuses to go without him, and he accompanies her to her mother's home. A lot of the typical Chaplin humor, and in addition some Chaplin pathos which is equally funny. 782 feet— on 2 reels Rental $2.50 4077 Code GANIR The Fireman Mutual Featuring Charlie Chaplin The Fire-captain orders a fire drill and Charlie is the only one who fails to respond. He is late as usual, and as a result is in continual trouble with the Captain. Then to make matters worse, he falls in love with the Captain's girl. Many hilariously funny scenes of Charlie and the other firemen responding to fire alarms. In the midst of one fire Charlie learns of another and promptly drives away to it, leaving his companions with only the end of the broken hose in their hands. But he effects a rescue and is forgiven and proclaimed a hero. 768 feet — on 2 reels Rental $2.50 4078 Code GANOR Ont A. M.
