CHARLIE CHAPLIN
AT THREE HOUSES
Victoria, Colonial and Regent
Assuage "Chaplinitis Fever"
in Two Releases

Charlie Chaplin invaded Harrisburg
last evening and came as near to
nlonopolizing the motion picture field
as it is possible for a screen artist to
do. The beauty of being able to /ap-
pear two or three places at one time
was shown by Chaplin's performance
of his more or less amusing antics
before three separate and distinct
audiences in one evening, at the three
Market street motion picture houses,
the Victoria, Colonial and Regent.
AT the Regent the $4,000 laugh
producer kept things humming with
his rapid-fire actions on an escala-
tor, being pursued up the moving
stairway by an iFate pursuer without
either of them getting anywhere

Police portrays him as a released
convict whom everybody tries to lead
straight in INSCRIPTIONS ways to the
utter demolition of all his good inten-
