Harold LLOYD at Columbia

The tang of novelty which Gold
wyn has maintained all year is
strongly evident in His Back Against
the WALL" which is the current fea-
ture at Mauks Columbia theater. 1t
is the only western picture you ever
saw with a hero who cant ride, cant
shoot, and is scared of his own sha-
dow. Comedy. drama and romance
run roit through five reels and the
tale of the little East Side tailor's
apprentice who was frightened into
being a hero has the right sort of
popular appeal. Raymond Hatton
plays the part Of the coward. with
convincingness that is worth while.
Snatched by circumstances from an
East Side tailor shop and dropped
into one of the widest towns in the
cattle country, he is frantic with
fear. In the remarkable climax OF
the pictures when Jeremy Dice wob-
bles, on uncertain knees. up to the
town bully who has threatened TO
fill him full of holes, the audience
travels every step of the way with
him and feels every emotion he por-
trays SO realistically. On the same
program Harold Lloyd presents one
of the funniest comedies of his new
series: Never Weaken"
Never Weaken made a record
run of nine weeks at the Symphony
theater in Los Angeles. Many of the
scenes are laid on an unfinished sky
scraper with Lloyd doing daring
stunts at dizzy heights. Lloyd gets
more laughs to the foot out of
comedy of this sort than most
| comedians do to the reel. Lovers
of the spectacular will be delighted

THE SCHOOL, THE NURSERY OF CITIZENSHIP,


The existence and perpetuity Of nation based

the educator that do not exist under any other

local. unitarian, communal, place where the
pupil goes simply to acquire specific knowledge
and culture that may be useful to him in private
life; but in an eminent sense is broad, national
institution, upon which the highest veal Of the
republic depends.
The ideal school is the nursery Of intelligent citi-
zenship. and the inspiring source of sterling type
LOT genuine patriotism. The age is progressive
one. The demands Of advancing civilization
requires that the curriculum OF study should be
broadened. An enlightened public sentiment con-
firms this position, prompts the people to munifcent
donations for schools of every grade from the kim

stands pledged to pay the necessary cost. while
reasonably demanding that the school system should
be so complete and comprehensive to Justify the
