The photoplay offering for today will
be the Astral athe cinemattzation of
the great stage play, Kick In" with
William Courtenay and Mollie King in
the leading parts.
To reveal too much of the sstory of
''Kick-In" would be unfair to author
and to spectator. Suffice 1t to say
that although 1t deals with crime, 1t has
not real criminal in the entire role
of its characters, that although 1t deals
intimately with the police and police
methods, 1t is in no sense of the word 4
condemnation of the officers of the law,
and although filled with love interest,
the hero and heroine are man and wife
and Cupid does not have to tax his in
genuity to keep the pair together as he
is so aften called upon to do In the
usual play.
For kick In" is not the usual play.
1t is an entirely different play with a
kick in every situation, yet replete
with humor. For every thrill there is
genuine laugh. Willard Mack, the
author, has drawn his characters from
real life and it is the ring of sincerity
that gives the final punch" to this
most remarkable of dramas.

-, Saramount feature, The For
tunes of Fifi'
Fiji is first seen as delightful Pier
rot in a little French provincial play
that is a dismal failure despite her ev-
cry effort to put life and ginger into
the rest of the cast. But among the
few who comprised the last audience
was old Cartouche, a veteran of the
Napoleonic wars who had turned actor
when his wounds no longer allowed
him to follow his general. Cartouche
is captivated by Fiji and decides to
try to get the little girl position with
the Imperial theater in Paris, of which
he is member. Through his efforts
Fiji is employed at the Imperial in n
very small way and the veteran takes
the youthful actress to his lodgings,
spreading his protective wing over her.
Fiji, however, fails to understand
just how much Cartouche is doing for
her, and when he gives her money to
buy some clothes for herself, she pro-

ceeds to purchase toy dog called
Toto. The veteran later buys a govern
ment lottery ticket and insists upon
presenting 1t to Fiji. The ticket is de-
ciared to be the winning number and
Fiji finds herself in possession of a
fortune! But new problem is pre-
scented, for Cartouche decides that Fiji
must be educated. He applies to his
old general who suggests that Fiji be
sent to the home of Louis Bourcet, a
young attorney who lives alone with
his mother.
How Fiji creates all sorts of dis
turbances by the squandering of the
money and the surprise, finish of the
film, is Interestingly told.
