He is on his toes every min- ute before the camera, He never misses a trick, from the tilt of an eye-hrow to the animated cavort- ings of a hilarious situation, His stuff is clean, top, the cleanest com- edy on the screen, Charles Byer is very good and Thomas Ricketts is splendid, Fritzi THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22, Ridgeway adds ome of the largest portions to the humor in her role ag the little slavey who pretends sh. is the speeder to tool papa.

Prg- senting Ben Lyon, Antonio Moreno and Martha Sleeper in the featured | rotee, this dramatic photoplay, which was filmed from an original story by James Ashmore Creelman under the the direction of Bert Glennon, vivdly portrays the thrills and hazards of the air mail pilot's calling, while it narrates an absor- hing romance of the gervice, Little by little Chicago is getting the upper hand on crime.

Ben Lyon, Antonio Mor- eno and Martha Sleeper are the featured players of thie FBO special, As one of the flyers for the air mail Ben Lyon port- rays the role of a rooky flyer for the service who shows a yellow streak. Then it is that Antonio Mor- eno as the experienced and loyal flyer, determined to save him and the service from dissrace, takes him in hand and brings out the true blue spirit in him in a flight replete with breath-taking and enthralling thrills, ' 3 NEW RECORDS AT TORONT NEET (Continued from page 8) 60-yard sprint, Like Williams, Miss Cook came from behind to beat her Olympic team mate, but she had a comfortable margin at the wire while Miss Bel! just lasted to hold off Mrs. Smith-Hogarth by a slight margin for the secondary honors, The special girls' relay race was marred by a spill in which Bobuy Rosenfeld and Gwen Nye fell near. ing the end of the first lap. race was restarted with Kay Grif- fith pairing with Miss Nye, Canadian girls' team won by a handy margin, Miss Nye led Miss Grifiith to the second station but Bobby Rosenfeld made up the lost ground and thereafter the winners widened out, The winning team was composed of Misses Griffith, Rosenfeld, Bell and Cook, Ethel Catherwood, the "Saska- toon Lily," gave an exhibition of high jumping and demonstrated convincingly how she defeated the world's best girl jumpers at the Olympic games and created a new world's record, She retired after reaching 4' 10% inches over the bar, Eva Dawes won the girls' championship high jump event, leaping 4' 10% inches to defeat Conny Coulson.
