„The Floorwalker,“ Los Angeles – MUTUAL CHAPLIN SPECIALS
Charlie Chaplin Every Day (...)
For instance, the Garrick Theatre, Los Angeles, is running
Mutual Chaplin Specials every day in the year,
playing each subject for four consecutive weeks. And business
is as great at the end of the fourth week as during
the first, as the accompanying reproduction of a photograph
taken on the twenty–eighth day of the run
of „The Floorwalker“ at this theatre must clearly show.
There are thousands of other striking cases demonstrating
the unparalleled worth of Charlie Chaplin vehicles
like „The Floorwalker,“ „The Fireman“ and „The Vagabond“ and the
other nine Mutual Chaplin Specials which are to follow.

& A Brief for Charlie.
Maybe Charlie Chaplin is a tightwad with those who also
possess wads, but there are certainly times when
he isn‘T, with the poor and unfortunate. He himself, however,
never relates these instances – not even to his
press agent.
Eugene Hughes, a niece of Rupert Hughes, by the way,
who played in his latest picture, „Easy Street,“
told me the other day that during the taking of that picture
a hundred youngsters from St. Andrew‘s Orphanage
were used.
„Charlie came and sat down by us when the scene was
finished,“ said Miss Hughes. „He seemed sad and
quiet, but he didn‘t say anything. By and by we found out
what was troubling his mind. It was those orphans.
He called his chauffeur, gave him a lot of money and told
him to go downtown and bring back an autolad
of candy and playthings for the kids. The man returned
in about an hour, and you never saw such a happy
lot of youngsters in your life.“
Keep Warm by Suggestion.
Charlie Chaplin‘s next picture play, there is a rumor,
will have to do with summer resorts and their
amusements.
