THEY LAUVGH, THEN CRY AND THEN LaAUGH AGAIN Thatâ€"was the experience of the audience at the Oarweod Theatre, who went to the opening of Charlie Chaplin‘s new film, "Whe Kid," wideâ€" ly advertised as First National‘s six reeis of joy, showing April 18, 14, 15 and 16. â€"‘"Six reels of joy" tells but half of it, for wlule the comedian has never been so mirthâ€"provoking in any previous production, the story» which is unfolded contains more real heart throbs than many a picture that has puilt up reputations for emotional actresses. Charlie is himself, but he has inâ€" jected himself into a story of heart interest that has seldom been equalâ€" led.. The synopsis of it sounds rather trite, for it starts with the abandopâ€" ment of her baby by the woman who has been wronged. Charlie finds the baby and raises him to boyhood. The typrcal Chaplinesque methods of raisâ€" ing the Kid are responsible for a good part of the humor with which the piece abounds, while his pitiable whimsical procedure to gain the child‘s love dampened many an eye,. In this fine rural drama of New England life Tourneur carries his adâ€" murers to a typical county fair and reaches his grand climax in the thrillâ€" ing race which Cold Molasses. wins. From the exciting start to the nerveâ€" racking finish it is a real race, over a real racy track and run by trained thoroughbreds. The result is in doubt up to the very exciting finale, and when the equine hero saves the forâ€" tune and home of the leading spirits in this simple study of New England life, there is a combination of sport and drama that is irresistible. This _ explains why , ‘The County Fair‘s has more than duplicated its earlier fame as a successful play and comes upon the screen in the enâ€" larg,ed\ vision of â€" Maurice Tourneur‘s production to score the outstanding hit rof the season.. It is the most talked about picture of the regular season and is breaking records everyâ€" where. The. dramatic c}imax of the film comes with Chaplin‘s losing fight, and the â€"Kid‘s despair when the law sepâ€" arates them, but this is followed so closely by a bit of comedy which, perhaps, is the best of the piece, in which Charlie rescues him after a chase. over roof tops, ‘ that people laughed the Iumps right out of their throats. / Heretofore on screen or stage there have been glimpses of a horse race that carried a limited element of susâ€" pense and climax, but Maurice Tournâ€" eur in his picturization of "The Counâ€" ty Fair‘‘ receives credit for putting the first real race upon view. The big hit is announced for three days at (the Allen.. Beaver Theatre, commencing Monday, and the interest in its local. presentation will carry it to the same success that has been metâ€"everywhere it is shown.. In adâ€" dition to a play of thrills, and tears and heart interest, plus enough good wholesome comedy to supply three ordinary. attractions with this happy element, it is given by a cast that has developed at least three stars in Wesâ€" ley Barry, the famous ~freckleâ€"faced kid; David_ Butler, the = successful young player of leads, and )Helen Jerome Eddy, the newest girl star of the screen. All have prominent parts in "The County Fair," together with Egith Chapman, ‘ William _V. Mong, John Steppling, Charles Barton and Arthur Housman. & AT NEW C HAPLiN FILM CUTâ€"RATE PRICES Oneâ€"galion and fiveâ€"gallon Tin or Galvanized Cans Turpentine or Boiled O:] S pal.CoaltOl .......~.....;%.......~f1.05 O quart ImPails:.....â€".................. .35 Galvanized Pails ............. ... ..

It is hoped that the proposed features will materialize, which will be announced in due time. This will be the biggest day ever [ put on in the town and will get as a i forerunner to the Fremen‘s Convenâ€" tion which follows. a month later. This field day will be known as the mortgageâ€"lifter, when we hope to raiseâ€" enough money to redeem the mortgage that we are now placing on the building. The local branch of the Great War Veterans held their biâ€"monthly card party in the Memorial Hall on Monâ€" day, April Isth. About fifty people attended to enjoy a game of whist, and judging by the enthusiasm disâ€" played, the game has been resurrecâ€" ted and will need a little moreâ€"atâ€" tention to bring it back to its oriâ€" ginal position, where it ranks high as a card game. The winners of the evening were: Ladies‘ first, Mrs. Jas. Nash, 2nd Mrs. A. W. Broomhead; consolation, Mrs. H. W. _ Sainsbury; gentlemen,â€" 1st Mr. H. W. Sainsbury, 2nd. Mr. W. Holden; last, Mr. Géo. Weller. â€"After the games refreshâ€" ments, were served. The next social evening will be devoted . to euchre and dancing, the date of which will be announced later. On Monday evening a very interest: ing session of the Epworth League was held. Mr. Allen Young, missionâ€" ary ‘viceâ€"president, was chairman of the meeting. Mrs. Foster sang a special sole and Mr. Leslic Kilborn, B. A., a medical student and missionâ€" ary volunteer, now finishing his media cal work in the University and hosâ€" pital, gave an excellent address upon missionary work in China. It is a land of great unrest, but also of great missionary opportunity. The people are looking for good and stable leadâ€" ership, and the Christian missionary was never more looked to and trusted than he or she is toâ€"day. The league‘s missionary contributions this year will go well over theirâ€" objective.. The Senior Mission Band has also had a most successful. yea?, and on Sunâ€" day afternoon heldâ€"their annual meetâ€" ing. The officers for the coming year are: Superintendent, . Mrs. J. â€"A. L. Macpherson; . president, _ Mr.. Mercer Garbutt;. viceâ€"president, Miss Eileen Johnston;>. recording secretary, .. Mr. Russell Fife; cor. secretary, Miss Isaâ€" bel Duncan; E)&Hfi'Branch secretary, Miss Murielâ€"Beamish; treasurer,, Mr. Henry. Maxted. Next Sunday, April 18th, there will be special addressés‘on the Referenâ€" dum at ‘both morning and evening services in the Methodist Church. Everybody is welcome to attend these services. â€" The Metiodist Church exâ€" pects all her membérs and friends to vote: "Yes â€" x" atâ€" the Referendum Vote on April 18th.

But a place among them is earned by the newâ€" est story of the underworld. It is "Qutsideâ€" the Law." a flmm ~feature "Outside the Law," a film ~feature written and produced by Tod Brownâ€" ing, in which Priscilla Dean, is starâ€" ring on the screen of the Oakwood April 18, 19 and 20. The struggle of crooks to go April L§, 10 and 20. The struggele, of crooks to go straight is an old _ themeâ€"but the struggle of Silky Moll ‘and Dapper Bill Ballard to live their own lives, is a part, but not the theme, of Tod Browning‘s picture. It is merely the dramatic skeleton that sustains the comely flesh of human heart drama in which Miss Dean, Lon Chaney and Wheeler Oakman are the principals. The real theme runs through the story like the undercurrent of a mysâ€" terious river. It is the passion of an old Chinese philosopher for his idpals â€"â€"principles of right and wrong, that are fundamental and not sections and paragraphs from â€" quibbling statute books. In his oriental devotion to what is right, E. A. Warren shows the Chinese dealing a justice "outâ€" side the law." HUGE FIELD DAY PLANNED f FOR 24TH OF MAY A young star named Stanley Goeâ€" thals, Ralph. Lewis, Melbourne Macâ€" Dowell and Wilton Taylor are exceedâ€" ingly well cast in important roles. Marathon Race and Fourteen Mile Walk Are the Features. The attractions planned _ by the Victoria Club for May 24th are such that the citizens of Weston are in for a real treat. The programme as announced is a very attractive one andâ€"the prizes ofâ€" fered by the enterprising Victoria Club areâ€"guch that a record entry will be assured, not only from Toronto and ‘Weston, but throughout the province. The feature events will be a ten mile Marathon race and a fourteen mile walk, which will ensure a record entry from out the province. The mile flat will bring together the ctack Y.M.C.A. men, while the reâ€" lay race between the Victoria aird Gladstone Clubs will be an interesting event. There will be five events conâ€" fined‘to Weston and district, and a number of similar races for the "Fair Sex." Secretary H. M. Alexander, who is now a resident of Weston, is endeayâ€" oring to stage amn "Extra" attraction in ‘the nature of a lacrosse game for medals between cither St. Simons â€"or Riversides and Weston, and given fine weather dn the holiday, a great atâ€" traction is in store for us. Entry blanks will be ready shortly and can be had from Mr. Alexander, 166 Main St., Weston. A South African story by Cynthia Stockiey serves as Ethel Clayton‘s latest Paramount vehicle, "Sins of Rosanne." Opens at the Allen Beaver Theatre, Friday and Saturday. Then we shall see the Olympic champions. perform in the 100 yard dash, and the 220 yards handicap. PRISCILLA DEAN‘S BEST ROL Ethel Clayton in Startling Story of South Africa Miss Clayton plays the most unusuâ€" al film herdine seen in many moons. Saved from death as an infant by an old Malay worhan, the daughter of a wealthy English widow â€" living near the Kimberley diamond mines grows into womanhood imbued by the Malay with an insatiable craving for bright stones. This leads her into a diaâ€" mond smuggling scheme, in which she is the a.ccom/pche of a sinister jeweller.. But romance enters her life and after exciting adventures, she is freed from the Malay‘s influence and becomes her real self. "Sins of Rosanne"‘ attracts by the unusual character of its story and by the sterling work of Miss Clayton in the heroine‘s role. The cast also inâ€" cludes Jack Holt and Fred Malatesta.
