172 CLASS 8— Dramas
vented from resigning by Diana who asks him to "stick it out" for her sake. He then takes his boy pupils on a camping trip which brings him more troubles (to the great amusement of the spectator), and complications are introduced by the escape of a pyromaniac from a local institution, for whom the Professor is at first mistaken and who finally sets fire to the school building. Waldo is trapped in the fire, but is daringly rescued by the Professor who, having gained a point of safety with his burden, promptly faints. Wales seizes the opportunity to carry Waldo to his family and claim credit for the rescue, but Waldo himself recovers consciousness in time to direct the credit where it was really due. Wales leaves abruptly and Diana assumes the difficult role of life-partner to the absent-minded Professor.
An excellent picture. The portrayal of the Professor by the great impersonator, "Chic" Sale, leaves nothing to be desired. This is a refined, modem, comedy-drama of the sort we all want, and is recommended for any audience. 1945 feet — on 5 reels Rental $3.75
8077 Code SANIR Conductor 1492 Warner Bros.
Featuring Johnny Nines and Doris May
A comedy drama of unusual humor and charm.
Terrence O'Toole is a young Irishman who decides to seek his fortunes in America whence his father has returned after a brief sojourn in the United States some years before. Some very amusing native Irish scenes occur in the beginning of the subject. Later Terry is seen in the capacity of a motorman in a small American city The president and vice-president of the trolley company are each owners of forty-nine shares of the stock and the balance of control is vested in two other shares belonging to a Mr. Rosenthal, who has disappeared. Terry falls in love with the President's daughter (Doris May) and his suit is advanced by his rescue of her kid brother who is racing the trolley car in a diminutive, but perfect automobile.
Terry's father joins him and contributes very ably to the humor of the story as it expands. One of the funniest specialties in this or any other comedy is a masquerade roller skating carnival in which Terry plays the front legs and an inebriated friend the rear legs of a camel.
Near the end of the story the ownership of the missing certificates is divulged in a dramatic manner and their prospective loss is narrowly averted in a thrilling effort of the senior O'Toole, who is rescued from a burning building by Terry in a thrilling scene of danger that grips every spectator.
A splendid subject combining humor and pathos, comedy and near-tragedy, without a dull moment from start to finish.
