& Chaplin Preview.

      „Shoulder Arms,“ the new Charles Chaplin comedy

for the First National Exhibitors, was given two

previews last week before it was shipped to New York.

The first showing took place at the Iris Theatre

in Hollywood and the second was at the Chaplin Studio

projection room. A few invited guests, consisting

of newspaper representatives and trade journal correspondents,

and the studio employees, formed the audience.

The latest comedy has for a theme the great war in Europe,

and if there is anything of a humorous nature

that could happen in a trench or on the battle field that Chaplin

has not put in his new comedy it is because

the First National Exhibitors contract with the comedian

stipulates that his films shall not exceed three

reels in length.

& Chaplin Behind.

      Los Angeles, Oct. 9.

      Charlie Chaplin is not a million-dollar-a-year comedian after

all. His contract with First National called for more

than eight pictures within a year, but the comedian has only

produced two, for which he has received slightly less than

a quarter of a million dollars. He was handed a check last week

for Shoulder Arms, the second picture.

„It sounds a deep note, in spite of its comic character“

Editorial content. „FROM THE WEST COAST STUDIOS

      Charlie Chaplin‘s Shoulder Arms is Hailed

      as a Masterpiece at Advance Showing in Los Angeles

      LOS ANGELES. – Charlie Chaplin‘s latest

picture, Shoulder Arms, has been given a preview before

Los Angeles critics, and is pronounced a great

screen comedy. It sounds a deep note, in spite of its comic

character. As much film was cut out as was used

in the picture, and most of this is so good it is to be used in the

making of another feature. Chaplin is now at Santa

Catalina Island, taking a short vacation.“ (...)

      Theatre, New York, starting Sunday, Oct. 20, 1918,
