MY DEAR Mr. EXHIBITOR AND THE
PHOTOPLAY PUBLIC
I wish to thank you four many kind inquiries about my health.
I am willing to stake my word of honor that I am alive.
My moustache still has that funny little quirk and my feet twinkle
when I walk.
I have been unable to convince any insurance company
that I have been ill, injured, killed or otherwise incapacitated.
Some people have been unkind enough to say that
I am crazy. All are entitled to their own opinions, but I would
say in defense that they don‘t know me.
I certainly am still on the job. I you don‘t believe it,
watch me Work. I will show you everything you ought to know
about interior decorating. If I don‘t make you laugh
I will admit that I am a dead one, but not until than.
Yours in fun,
Charles Chaplin.

„No. 14 was a half mile horse race, won by the
Mounted Policeman Bridegroom, who no sooner swept
the finish line than the two 1 pound guns of the field battery
began to hark like real dogs of war, notifying the world
that a sham battle was beginning.“ (...)

to satiate the most callous admirer of Charlie Chaplin.“ (...)
