CLASS 4 — Comedies and Juvenile 126 There is considerable of a plot, too, which has to do with an eccentric will, with the old familiar clause "marry the girl, or lose the money." 1008 feet standard length Rental $1.25 4511 Code GARCE Her Boy Friend Educational Films Kodak Cinegraph Featuring Larry Semon To say that this is a Larry Semon comedy in which the famous comedian is very much in evidence is quite enough to insure its entertainment quality. Semon is cast as a somewhat dumb, but very earnest detective. He gets into many breath-taking scrapes in his efforts to trail a gang of thugs through the intricate mazes of night club life. The plot has to do with the suppression of a gang of harbor thieves by Semon and his partner, a hard-boiled Central Office man. Larry falls very much in love with a beautiful girl, who helps to subdue the gang but who, at the end, turns out to be his partner's wife. The reel is replete with thrilling action and spontaneous comedy. A spectacular chase through the maze of streets and alleys along the harbor front furnishes much of the comedy, and a breath-taking dive from the yard-arm of a vessel adds a genuine thrill. This comedy is just a little above the high average set by all of Mr. Semon's efforts and is a most welcome addition to any entertainment. 1011 feet standard length Rental $1.25 4531 Code GARFE The Champeen Kodak Cinegraph Featuring "Our Gang" A policeman interrupts Ernie taking some apples from a dealer's stand, pictures for him the dire results of such practice and tells him he must pay the dealer $1.00 for the apples taken. Put to it to raise the necessary amount to save him from cracking stone, he decides to promote a prize fight. Training quarters are set up and the contestants are put to work. Mickey, fearing for the worst, decides he is not a fighter and that he will not go into the ring. When Ernie hears this his fear of not being able to pay the apple dealer looms up before him and he calms the rivals by telling each that the other is "goin' to lay down in the second round." The second round finds neither one down, but other developments arise which add to the interest of the story. Will be popular with Our Gang's friends. 1798 feet standard length— on 2 reels Rental $2.50 Select plenty of alternates
