VOGUE FILMS Inc., Presents— “A LISLE BANK” TWO REELS RELEASED JANUARY 14th FEATURING PADDY McQUIRE Supported by Gypsy Abbott UNUSUAL thrills and sensational feats of daring are mingled with the laughs in this Vogue Comedy. Two of the characters make a hairraising leap from the topmost point of a 175 ft. jack-knife bridge into a stream below. The story has to do with a looted bank and the concealment of the plunder in an old sock. Paddy, turned out of his boarding house, finds the sock and has a merry time eluding the police. The sock and its contents pass from hand to hand, always keeping just ahead of the pursuing detective. At the finish, Paddy, the real burglar, the girl Paddy loves, and the young man with whom she is elop¬ ing, all are cornered at the foot of the raised bridge. And then comes the biggest sensation of all. Pack YOUR theatre with this Vogue Comedy. Now booking at all Mutual Film Exchanges.
