• For the first time, Harold Lloyd appears in a story which was not written expressly as a vehicle for him. But Clarence Budington Kelland must have had him in mind when he wrote this madly entertaining tale. Two million readers guffawed for weeks at the Saturday Evening Post serial... many thousands more at the novelized best seller.
• Imagine America's top-notch comedian as a youth . . bred on Chinese maxims in remotest China . . . bolting into the midst of a big-city mayoralty race . . . bewildered at his
| election . . . beset by graft-greedy politicians and racketeers . . . j with only a sweet little cigaret girl on the level with him.
I • There's drama in this . . . and romance . . . suspense. But [ most of all greased-lightning action shot through with healthy, happy laughter.
