72 CLASS 4 — Comedies and Juvenile REEL NO. TITLE PRODUCER in and out of the scenes through houses, over roofs and finally into each other's arms for the marriage ceremony. A slapstick subject which will be appreciated by those who like speed in comedy. 851 feet standard length Rental $1.25 4044 Code GAGU The Dixie Madcaps Independent Featuring Jane and Kathcrine Lee A juvenile subject of the life of these two little children on a Southern Plantation where negroes and watermelons are intimately associated with home life. The two children are constantly getting into mischief of all kinds, and the culmination is reached when they carry the dog to church and transplant a flea from the dog to a new home on the back of one of the. congregation. This subject, like the "Hicksville Terrors" and the "Circus Imps," will be of interest principally to children under twelve years of age. Juvenile — 1401 feet standard length — on 2 reels Rental $2.00 4045 Code GAGAR Holy Smoke Independent Mose and his friend are two little animated puppets who are continually getting into mischief. This time they find an old man smoking his pipe, from which they take surreptitious pulTs with the usual results. They find some gunpowrder and load the pipe with it, producing rather unexpected results. They have other amusing adventures which will appeal to little folks rather than to adults. 490 feet standard length — on same reel with 7053, Difference Little Hair Makes Rental $1.00 4046 Code GAGER A Dog in the Manger Independent A slapsticl< comedy starting off with a couple of sharpers trying to sell a sausage machine for turning live dogs into hot dogs. Just as the machine is successfully demonstrated and the victim about to purchase it, the place is raided by the police and there follows an exciting but somewhat conventional chase over housetops, down fire escapes, through freight yards and finally the sharpers escape on a freight train. Next we' see a strike of the employees at the Dew Drop Inn and the fortuitous arrival of our two sharpers looking for a job just as the inn keeper is in despair over the strike. Amusing scenes with the amateur employees, one of whom undertakes to operate the elevator and the other the barber shop. Of course the shoe blacking and the shaving lather are mixed and further complications are caused by one of the guests who has a pair of pet leopards which break loose and cause consternation throughout the Inn. Finally our two employees are called to the kitchen where one cooks and the other acts as waiter. Here the dishes as well as the food are very much scrambled and some rather clever juggling with stacks of dishes and coffee cups follows. Not very much plot but a lot of hilarity which will please those who like a rather farcical slapstick style of humor. 1693 feet standard length — on 2 reels Rental $2.00 To secure subjects of your o>vn choice
