She took pot luck with thousands of other girls who aspired to fame on the shadow stage. She played extra bits in a couple of pictures and was then selected to play opposite Max Linder in hig burlesque version of Douglas Fairbanks‘ "The Three Musketeers." Jobyna‘s earliest longing was for the stage, and when she was little more tham fifteen her mother took her to New York to give her a chance at fame. There they met Ned Wayburn, the noted dancing . master and stage producer.. He took Jobyna under his care, and after developing her into an excellent dancer, obtained for her a part in George M. Cohan‘s "Two Little Girls in Blue." Hal Roach saw her on the screen in this picture and was so impressed with her work that he engaged her as leadâ€" ing lady for his single reel comedies. She held that job for six months, when Harold Lloyd decided he needed two leading ladies and engaged Mildred Davis for life, the contract being signâ€" ced, sealed and delivered with a marâ€" riage license. Jobyna, as all who haveâ€"seen her in "Why Worry" know, is small, dainty and very beautiful, withâ€"small feet and beautifully shaped hands.. Her curls are a soft brown and her eyes are a dark gray and her complexion is not removable, lad in both ambitions. . Robert Anâ€" stead, gambler and horseman, pits his flair for crookedness against the pluck and daring of the jockey, who is acâ€" cused of agreeing to throw away the race, and produces documents to prove it. When this plot fails, the gambler contrives to have acid thrown into Johnny‘s eyes as he forges past to vieâ€" tory at the last stretch. But this, too, fails in the end. Johnny Hines has the part of the jockey, with the following supporting cast: Windham _ Standing, _ Margaret Seddon, Robert Prior, Molly Malone, George Webb, Mervyn LeRoy, "Fat" Carr, Pauline French, and Brownie, the Wonder Dog. Arthur Rosson diâ€" rected the production. We knew it would happen! Everyâ€" one is asking about Jobyna Ralston, who makes her first appearance as Harold Lloyd‘s leading lady in his latâ€" est Pathecomedy, "Why Worry." Her shadow is quite the daintiest and most petite of any that has flitted before our vision in many a day, and while we mourn the loss of Mildred Davis, our grief is softened, for it gives us a new personality to study and delight ux 1 The life history of Joby, as everyâ€" one calls her at the Hal Roach studio, started in the town of East Pittshurgh, snuggled â€"away in the mountains of Tennessee. Jobyna was named after the noted actress, Jobyna Howland, who is greatly admired by the Ralstons of Tennessee. "Little Johnny Jones" is a Warner Brothers classic of the sereen, adaptâ€" ed from the famous play of the same name written by George M. Cohan, and the vehicle in which that stage personâ€" ality won his spurs and made himself a Broadway figure once for all. C‘ is a drama of the turf, the story of the American jockey, Johnny Jones, out to win the Derby race and a sweetâ€" heart, and of a gambler who enlists the services of gangsters to foil the HAROLD LLOYD‘S NEW LEADING LADY A HIT JOHNNY HINES IN "LITTLE JOHNNY JONES" DRAMA Johnny Hines, called the George M. Cohan of the sereen, has the starring role, in "Little Jolinny Jones," which will be the feature attraction of the week at the Oakwood .‘Theatre on Monday and Tuesday. ‘This comedian of shadowland is credited with possessâ€" ing an assortment of pep and laughter that is the envy of his rivals and, the delight of his andiences. By his sbil ity to gallop through a picture and squeeze his personality into every inch of it, he has rapidly forged to the foreâ€" front of secreen personalities.

THE ‘PIMES AND GUIDE, WESTON A JSTAGE HIT â€" A SCREEN TRIUMPH If you think you can beat the Traffic Cop, why, see this one IT‘S FUNNY He is somewhat shy with women, but, nevertheless, is a favorite with them. Lloyd is a close student of human nature and sees humor where others see only the tragic, but his inspiration for comedy comes not from his home association but from persons outside his home. Heâ€" has a remarkable memory. He is a combination of prankishness and sefiousness. While working he is as serious as anyone could be, but the minute work stops he is full of pranks. Lloyd has conccited by he is not as he is. He ist a rabid motion picture fan, likds opera, is crazy about the theatre and dances a great deal, althoughâ€"the jazz life holds no. appeal to Lloyd. If you would know Harold Lloyd as a friend and brother you should know that _ His social set is not exceptionally large and is comprised mostly of peoâ€" ple outside the motion picture industry He is not satisfied with what he is just now. Lloyd believes that to. he satisfied with oneself is to stop climbâ€" ing, and to stop climbing, he believes, is to halt one‘s happiness. j TOD SLOANE‘S CAREER § MADE INTO PICTURE HARQLD LLOYD AS HE IS KNOWN TO HIS FRIENDS The world has long since recognized Harold Lloyd as a young man of charâ€" acter and accepted him as the ideal American boy, but because of his inâ€" herent shyness and modesty, only an intimate friend can get all the fascinâ€" ating sidelights of his character and personality that make Lloyd the lovâ€" able human being that he is, , Lloyd‘s pet aversion is appearing in public, whether before an audience or any «place where he might be recogâ€" nized and subjected to the plaudits of the crowd. A thousand laughs and ten. thousand thrills are said to be the constituents out of which "Little Johnny Jones" is made. . This is the story, briefly, of the adventures of a Yankee jockey out to vindicate his. honor on the race track, after it has been besmirched and called into question by a gambler and turfman, who knows his own horse doesn‘t stand a chance of winning the Derby with Johnny Jones riding. The young jockey has fallen in love at first sight with an English heiress, whom he chas to. defend, also, from the in trigue in which he is /enmeshed. George M. Cohan, with his inimitable knack of dramatizing a good, situation, took this story and made it into "Little Johnny Jones," which _ he personally appeared in. His, work in this play won him his prestige as a Broadway stage figure; in a way, it might be said that he won his â€"spurs in it. Now it has been made into a Warâ€" ner Brothers classic of the sereen with a cast composed of Johnny. Hines, the George M. Cohan of the sereen;. Windâ€" ham Standing, Margaret Seddon, Robâ€" ert Prior, Molly Malone, George Webb, Mervyn LeRoy, Pauline EFrenchy "Fat" Carr, and Brownie, the Wonder Dog. As everybody knows, Tod Sloan won a niche in racing by his successive yi¢ tories. He was sailing along "pretty? in his carcer, whenâ€" suddenly racihg circles were astounded by his suspenâ€" sion. No explanations were given. The news came likeâ€"a thunderbolt. It was shrouded. in mystery. . All that was known was that Tod and the race track were parted. The career of Tod Slean, the world‘s famous jockey, was used as the basis of "Little Johnny. Jones,"â€"the. sereen adaptation of George M. Cohan‘s stage success, which will play at the Oakâ€" wood Theatre for 2 days only, Monday and Tuesday, with Johnny Hines in the stellar role. : As Jobyna tackles only one thing at a time, her présent ambition is to please Harold Lloyd as a leading lady, Maybe, later on, her ambition will change, but first she‘ll have to really grow up, for she is only eighteen, and the only way she can convince anyâ€" ene of that many summers is to lead them to her birth certificate.
