The whole world rocks in agreement when it sees this convulsing mirthquake exploded by screendom’s exalted monarch of mirth. Two years in pro¬ duction and a laugh for every minute it took to make. Still the elusive, intangible genius of joy, Chaplin does not talk and yet speaks volumes with his deft pan¬ tomime in the greatest side¬ splitting sensation the mo¬ tion picture has known. Again the forlorn figure with the bulging brogans, wobegone clothes and bamboo cane hobbles through hilarious adventures that transport him from the freedom of the back alleys into the gay, glittering glamor of smart society. You’ll chortle, giggle, gurgle, howl and scream as Charlie trips up the ladder of success, bid¬ ding for fame and fortune first as a prize fighter, then a white wing and finally a man about town. It’s the treat of treats for the whole family. 28—Five Col. Cartoon (Mat 40c; Cut $1.25) 21—Three Col. Ad (Mat 20c; Cut 75c)
