& Here Is An All–Fun Show That You Must See!

Chaplin In his riotous comedy on the

American Doughboy Shoulder Arms Empress

Tomorrow Friday And at the Queen Sat.

      You People With A Grudge Against

      Charles See This!

      If this famous comedian doesn‘t „ring the bell“ with you

      in this, his new comedy, and if you do not sit in

      laughing happiness all the way through it, I‘ll give you

      leave to go and throw rocks at me.

      The worst Chaplin hater in town (unless a sympathizer

      of the Hun) will enjoy it to the uttermost and

      get more glad feelings than they have had in months.

      This urging isn‘t being done through any fear

      of not having a whole of a patronage with „Shoulder Arms,“

      but because I will feel sorry for those whose

      stubbornness might cause them to miss such a laughing

      good time.

                                                                          Yep, BLEICH.

      P. S. – In order to accommodate the largest number

      of people and obviate crowding, the program

      here tomorrow will be short – just an hour: Chaplin,

      three reels – Sennett, two, making a jolly

      „bung-up“ dandy show for sure.

„And Chaplin“

Editorial content. „Till the Boys Come Home

      The business of keeping our soldiers amused while

they‘re waiting to get back home is one of Uncle

Sam‘s important jobs just now. Here is the story of how the

movies are still ,carrying on,‘ by an American in France.

      By F. S. Tisdale.“ (...)

      „D. Fairbanks probably ranks first in the estimation of the

doughboys of the American Expeditionary Force.

But Bill Hart runs him a close second. Other particular favorites

are Mary Pickford, Earle Williams, Charles Ray,

and Chaplin.“ (...)
