ANIMAL COMEDY IS
POPULAR FEATURE
ON STRAND SCREEN
Trained Chimpanzee Stars in
Story With Real Plot
O'Brien in Main Picture,
Perfect Lover"

Almost equalling the main feature in
interest, especially among the children
and young people, at the Strand today
Is an animal comedy picture. A
trained chimpanZee does the remark
able stunt of going through "a series
of incidents that actually develop a
plot. The chimpanzee deports himself
exactly like the star of any other pic
ture, and he wins more plaudits than
some stars.
The main picture feature, however
is THE Perfect Lover" starring Eu-
gene O'Brien, who is said to score
100 per cent among women patrons of
the moving picture theatres. Because
of his growing brilliance' as a matinee
idol, even when playing minor parts,
O'Brien has been elevated to the posi-
ton of star. The Perfect Lover" Is
his first picture as the leading man.
O'Brien in "The Perfect Lover" has
the role of a struggling young artist.
Through one of his pictures he finds
himself suddenly whirled into fashion
able society where pretty women lit
orally throw themselves at him. Being
rather particular he lodges them, but
continues to make a financial success
Of himself. Riches and the love of
many women finally serve, however, to
make him unhappy.
He goes back to the country, this
lionized lover, and does the most un-
expected thing.
