CLASS A — Comedies and Juvenile 103
in the course of some exceedingly funny events, some kangaroos escape from their shipping-cage, one of them is induced to enter the ring and Kelly is promptly floored with a unique boxing "glove." This, however, does not half describe the funny events in this picture. Such powerful jumpers are the kangaroos that, when two of them are loaded into a taxicab, they promptly kick the bottom out of it and propel the taxicab itself along the road in a series of jumps.
The same taxi has some earlier misadventures which will keep the audience gasping.
This picture will be enjoyed by old and young alike. 514 feet— on 2 reels Rental $1.50

The race itself will go down in the history of sporting annals without a peer for excitement and adventure. Wrecks, collisions, explosions, sinkings, swimming, and every other accessory of a motor boat meet is experienced and enjoyed by the delighted spectators.
