latest Mutual release, '1he Rink"
Released Dec. II. The only new Chap
lin on the market. Charley's feet, as
usual, play big part in the picture.
Few of his admirers have been aware
that he is an expert roller skater; al
most as much at home on ball bearings
as in the big hoppy shoes that have
side stepped him to fame on the film.
His feet are what enables him to draw
S670, 600 year.
Saturday
One day only. "A Woman's Fight.
Geraldine O'Brien, the Broadway fa-
vorite who stars in "a Woman's
Fight" has stamina, nerve and -
punch! The picture proves it. Except
in the prize fight film that the law
forbids nowadays, there is nowhere on
the screen such an exhibition of fstic
prowess as Miss 0'Brien displays in
certain scene in "a Woman's Fight"
Admirers who know Miss O'Brien as
gentle stage favorite, cannot have sus-
pected that she was so "handy with
her mits." Beyond doubt this usu.
ally passive young woman went into
special training for the picture.
Miss 0'Brien plays factory worker
who decides to take the part of another
factory girl. very young and very
slight, who is much picked upon by
third factory girl. Ihe latter is brawny
and friend of the boss. That makes
no difference 10 Miss O'Brien, who
won't have her little friend eternally
abused. She lands on the boss friend.
The friend launches a counter offensive.
Miss O'Brien meets il. You'll get so
interested you'll hold your breath.
