Cut this Advertisement Out ARE YOU TANGO-CRAZY ? OF COURSE YOU ARE ! SO IS Our MUTUAL Girf You cannot possibly afford to miss this Seventh Reel of the Most Novel Motion Picture Scene ever conceived. Seven is a lucky number, and the Seventh Reel of "Our MUTUAL Girl" Is Lucky For Us and For You, Just Because It Is Far and Away tlie Best Yet! Margaret hears how everybody is wild about the tango and her indulgent aunt engages the most prominent society teachers to instruct her in all the latest steps. A. Baldwin Sloane and Grace Field, who are the two most prominent society dancers of the present time in New York City, are the artists selected by the aunt, and they demonstrate all the new society dances in the utmost detail. BE A "MUTUAL GIRL" YOURSELF and take advantage of this opportunity, just as Margaret does in the picture. You can learn just as much from Mr. Sloane and Miss Field as if you were paying them $50 an hour, which is what they actually get from their metropohtan pupils. The titles of all the dances and the names of all the steps are given on the screen. After you have seen this wonderful picture perhaps you will dream the way "Our Mutual Girl" does. Her excitement about the tango gets to be such an infatuation that she dances with everybody—her Aunt, the Butler, the Footman and the Count. At night, with the fever of the dance still in her veins, she gets up and whirls dizzily about with the furniture. And then she imagines that she is DANCING WITH THE WOOLWORTH BUILDING! The Mutual now has ready for release another collection of STIRRING MEXICAN WAR PICTURES Showing the departure of the Rebel Army, under General Pancho Villa, from Chihuahua to Torreon, where the battle between the Federal and the Constitutionalist forces will be fought.
