FUJI NOTHING LIKE FORM£R ONE tftwteen years ago a picture was produced called "Tillie's Punctured Romance." Many of the pres- ©nt generation of moviegoers have forgotten what it was all about, butf many will remember that it was ones, • of the first big laughing successes. Asf a matter of fact the old "Tillie" picture was the first big "feature-comedy" ever produced. Now there's a new "Tillie's Punctured Romance,,--which will be at! the Empire Theatre, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 12 and 13. This time it has been made on an elaborate^ 1928 scale by A1 Christie, with EdJ ward Sutherland directing, and with such people as W. C. Fields, Chester Conklin, Louise Fazenda, Mack Swain.j Doris Hill, Grant Withers, Tom Kennedy and Babe London playing the; important parts. And it's a grandscale circus and war picture. You! don't remember anything like that in the ancient Tillie, do you ? Well there wasn't anything of the kind. Billed on the main title of the old version of "Tillie's Punctured Romance" in 1914 were only five names, set down here in the order in which they were advertised then. Marie Dressier, Charlie Chaplin, Mabel Normand, Mack Swain and Charles Bennett. But there were many others playing atmosphere and small "bits" in that picture who have since attained considerable prominence in the movies. One of these is Chester Cbnk. lin who appeared as the waiter in a cheap restaurant in some of the scenes and who later appeared as a guest at a reception, staging a comic fight with Charlie Chaplin la ft "high society" drawing room. .
