up the stairs two steps at time and
still without word, began to jam
collars and shirts into his valise.

Even then it did not seem possible
that John, who had been absolutely

Charlie Chaplin makes rare use of

picture, made by his own company,
and distributed by First National. In
this most amusing film which will be
shown at the Royal Theatre, Satur-
day and Sunday, Mr.. Chaplin is seen
as a simple-minded, innocent farm
hand, whose affections are all for a
pretty farmers daughter, and who
stands in great fear of a harsh old
farmer for whom he works.
Charles ignorance of the ways of
the world nowhere show to more
comical effect than where he attempts
