Little Stories For Bedtime
 BY THORNTON w BURGESS
THE MERRY LITTLE FREEZES
 WORK HARD
BY THORNTON w. BUF

The Merry Little Freezes almost shouted aloud with delight when they saw Farmer Browns boy drop Grandfather Frog to feel for his handkerchief and wipe out the dust which they had thrown in his eyes. Then he had to climb the fence and chase his hat through the garden. They would let him almost get his hands on it and then just as he thought that he surely had it they would snatch it away. It was great fun for the Merry Little Freezes. But they were not doing it for fun. No, indeed, they were not doing it for fun, They were doing it to lead Farmer Browns boy away from Grandfather Frog.
 Just as soon as they dared they dropped the hat and then separated and rushed away in all directions scross the Green Meadows. over to the Green Forest and down to the Smiling Pool What were they going tore Why. to hunt for some of Grand father Frogs friends and ask their help You see the Merry Little Rreezes could make Farmer Browns boy drop GrandfSther Frog, but they couldn't unite knot or cut a string, and this Is just what had got to be cone to set Grandfather Frog free,
  So now they were looking for some one with sharp teeth who thought enough of Grandfather Frog to come help him.
 One thought of Striped Ch'pmunlx and started for the old stone wall to look for him. Another went in search of Danny Meadow Mouse. < third headed for the, dear old briar patch after Peter Rabbit. A fourth rcmem- bered Jimmy Skunk and how he had once Set Biacky the Crow free from a snare A fifth remembered what sharp teeth Happy Jack Squirrel has and hurried over to the Green Forest 10 look for him. sixth started xtranght for the Smiling Pool to tell Jerry Muskrat- And every one of them raced as fast as he could
 All this time Grandfather Frog was without hope Yes, sir, poor old Grandfather Frog was wholly in de- spafr You see. he didn't know what the Merry Little Freezes were trying s0 do and he was so frightened and confused that he couldn't think. When Farmer Browns boy dropped him he lay a few minutes right where he fell Then right close at hand he saw an old board and without really thinking. he tried to get to it, for there looked as if there might be room for him to hide under it. 1t was hard work. for you know his long hind legs, which he uses for jumping. vs-e tied together. The best he could do was to crawl and wriggle

 ''They are all poor" she says of her family. And they have all helped-except Roscoe"
 Tolerant of his other character istics, whether she approves them or not, Roscoe Arbuckle's step mother resents only his remuneration of the family. That bricks her unbending pride and self respect.
 If his former admirers are veering in his hour of trouble she sees in that a sign of retribution.
 Thus the .'cut back" fades, the reel again picks up the drowning come dian in the cell of San F'rancisco's city prison and proceeds to unwind through gruesome inquest details and grand jury testimony toward the trial for the death of Virginia Rappe with which Roscoe Fatty" Arbuckle is charged.

 Now, when the Merry Little Freezes had thrown dust in Farmer Browns S boys face and snatched his hat he had dropped Grandfather Frog in such a hurry that he didn't notice just where he did drop him, so now he didn't know the exact place to look for him. But he knew pretty near ,and he hadn't the least doubt that he would find him. He had just started to look when the dinner horn sounded. Farmer Browns boy hesi- tate. He was hungry. If he was late he might lose his dinner. He could come back later to look for Grand father Frog, for with his legs tied Grandfather Frog couldn't get far. So with a last look to make sure of the place Farmer Browns boy start ed for the house.
 If the Merry Little Freezes had known this they would have felt ever so much better. But they didn't. So they hurried as fast as ever they could to find Grandfather Frogs s friends, and worked until they were almost too tired to move, for it seemed as if every single one of Grandfather Frogs friends had taken that particular day to go away from home. So while Farmer Browns boy ate his dinner. and Grandfather Frog lay hidden under the old board in the Long Lane, the Merry Little Freezes did their best to lind help for him.

Comes the daring attempt to steal the fam ous crown jewels from the Tower of London: the escape and pursuit of the thief, and then. with kaleidos- copic speed, sudden transition to the snow covered fastnesses of the Swiss Alps, where the drama reaches its breathless climax in a desperate hand to- hand conflict at the edge of a yawning abyss.
 Harold Lloyd's comedy for the last times today is undoubtedly the best short comedy in which he has ever appeared. Playing with him are Snub Pollard and Bebe Daniels, who add much fun to the entertainment value of the offering.

 Two strong screen favorites are seen on the silver sheet at the Ra- mona this week, Roy Stewart in one of his best efforts "The Laws Out law" heading the list, following by oot Gibson in Bandits Beware" Both pictures the characteristic of the respective stars featured and. for action and exciting situations and thrilling chmaxes, together with real western settings, they are indeed hard to beat.
 "The Sky Pilot" at the Strand
 The Sky Pilot" continues as the attraction at the Strand, where this stirring Ralph Connor tale is making a most decided hit. It is doubtful if there has yet reached the screen a western production so compelling and thrilling in it's action, and yet so ap- pealing in its influence, so refreshing in its comedy, and so human in it's element of romance and love. Ralph Connor wrote a masterpiece in The Sky Pilot and Catherine Curtis, a former Phoenix woman, who produced the picture divides honors with King Vidor, the director in having pre- served for the screened version the book in it's entirety. The story is well known millions have read it. It re- counts the adventures that befell a minister of the gospel who drifted to the Canadian Northwest and of his battle for right among the cowpunch- CTS. It is replete with the greatest kind of thrills. The stampede alone is the biggest scene perhaps ever caught by a camera.

Shannon Day, Winter Hall, Charles Ogle, Zelma Maja, Maud Wayne, Alma Bennett, William Boyd, Elinor Glyn, and Lady Gilbert Parker. The story of ''The Affairs of Anatol'' is a story of mar ried life, and with that skill and fin esse that has always marked the De- Mile features, he has delved into the subject, boldly. fearlessly, evolving a | theme that is thrilling and humorous, satirical yet broadly frank and truth full, dramatic and yet romantic. but at all times human and intensely ap-
