interesting in his career, as the
veteran locomotive engineer in

at Loew's Palace.

him as q strong man working
with other strong men in q huge
undertaking. He drives an en-.
gine on crack Limited, and
pilots 1t through a perilous run
to the rescue of refugees In the
Mississippi flood.
The story gives an intimate
view of the inside lives of rail-
road men, of their joys, sorrows
and the drama of their calling,
and contrasts that with the thrills
of onrushing engines, roaring
railroad yards, and the huge
shops where the building of an
entire locomotive Is seen.
Chaney's makeup Is one of the
most deceiving In his career, as
he makes up for man approach.

serts the road for a white col.
