We can barely resist the tempta- tion to thus describe this wonder- ful little star's new picture, "Circus Days." Restraining our enthusiasm so that it will not get beyond bounds, we will confine ourselves to describing it as at least the greatest motion picture show released in months Certainly it is the best thing that Jackie has yet given us. We are not the only one who is enthusiastic about "Circus Days." Everyone who saw this thoroughly delightful First National picture at its opening last night at the Allen Theatre seemed to feel just about as we did. It is a circus picture, of course, hut it is a great deal more besides. It is a human document brought into living motion on the screen with that lovable, wistful, emotional little per sonality, Jackie Ooogan, worming his way still deeper into the hearts of all his admirers. Jackie, as Toby Tyler, a youngster who runs away from a harsh uncle's farm to join a circus, rises to the greatest heights of his screen career in "Circus' Days." A forlorn little figure with his widowed mother on the farm, he is buoyant, cheerful, mischievous and natural as the hap- py-go-lucky vendor of peanuts 2nd lemonade under ."the big top." Though his new boss is a tyrant. the circus has its compensation.There is Luigi, the old clown, who takes him under his protective wing, and then there is Jeannette," Luigi's niece, the tiny equestrienne star of the circus. 'The big denouement comes when Toby tries to aid Jeannette and suddenly finds himself a star of the circus instead of merely a peanut merchant. "Circus Days" is a production dear after the heart of any boy---or girl, whether six or sixty. It is one of the finest things the screen has ever produced, {| TOM MIX AND TONY PLEASE LOCAL FANS. A large percentage of Kingston's film fans have a warm spot in their hearts for Tom Mix, and for Tony, his handsome and clever steed. And they, the fans, gathered in force last night to see Tom's first big comedy special, "Soft Boiled." Appreciation was the keynote of the reception they gave the picture, and the ap- preciation grew from the first reel to the last. The story, the acting, the scenes and settings, the witty titles, all go to form a film produc- tion that rivals some of the biggest and best in interest and appeal. Tom plays many parts duricg the devel- opment of the tale. He is cow-boy, shoe salesman, roadhouse manager, in turn, and all through he is a lov- r. In eadh new role he amazes and amuses his audience with a succes- sion of funriosities and stunts that provoke laughter and thrills until they lose themselves in the sheer fun and wonder of it. Tony, the four-legged chum and co-actor of Tom, gets his share of the praise, too, while Billie Dove, the sweet- heart of the story, wins a welcome the thoroughly deserves, And the rest of the cast, particularly Tom Wilson as the colored butler, acquit themselves well and add to the en- tertainment. And don't forget the beauty chorus, which makes the fair sex critical and the sterner sex en- thusiastic. The story tells of thes relations between a rich uncle and a cowboy nephew, with a charming romance thrown in. The picture has such variety and grip, however, that it is difficult to describe its many- sided appeal. But its strong point is fun. Local devotees of rowing will follow with zest the fine glimp- ses of the Canadian Henley given in the Pathe News SPORTING NEWS Back in Game. The many friends of Bill Shaw will be glad to leapn that the injury to his ankle has recovered sufficient ly to allow him to be back in the game once again. The Ottawa Jour- nal says: "There are few who have anything on Bill when it comes to ce| firing the ball out." The Schedule Prepared. .
