day and tomorrow in Down to
Earth" his latest Aircraft offering.
The story was written by Fairbanks
himself and arranged for the screen
by little Anita LOOs, the cleverest
scenario writer in the light comedy
drama field. Like all Of the Fair
banks productions, Down TO Earth"
is a picture that the whole family can
enjoy from the Oldest to the youngest.
1t is clean, snappy and entertaining
and a vein Of real human philosophy
runs through it. Special attention is
called TO the fact that under the Wig
vans new contract with the Aircraft,
pictures will be shown only two days
and not three days as heretofore. Here
is what some Of the New York papers
said Of Down TO Earth
1t seems so foolish TO keep on
saying, as each new Fairbanks de-
light appears on the screen that is
the best thing he ever did and yet
every one says II, and means IL, too.
It really does seem as though Down
to Earth is more chOckful Of humor-
Gus situations than any Of Fairbanks
