Lloyd's Latest Comedy, ‘Girl Shy,' Is as Sure Fire as Real Laughing, Gas
By WALTER D. HICKMAN r—yi OVTE laughing gas! I V/l That is just what Harold I* -I Lloyd’s “Girl Shy” turns out to be. I tried to behave myself, but I just had to yell. At times I think I was screaming
with joy. I made one or two feeble efforts to control myself, but I failed. Finally, I gave up and screamed when Lloyd got the best of me. Lioyd lias put laughing gas into this movie/I wasn’t the only one who screamed at the Apollo yesterday because the crowded house threw away all restraint and
'' -
HAROLD LLOYD laughed right out loud. Some may call this movie just plain slap-stick, but it is real art, comedy art. The movie chase is not anew thing. It is about as old as the first photoplay, but Lloyd has developed the idea inter a comedy masterpiece. It b i more thrills in it than the best “human fly” stunt that Lloyd has staged in any movie. Some time this week, J am going to I read all the undertakers’ signs in tne city and hope that will put me into a sad mood as I want to study the mechanics of this film. When a fellow is- laughing himself nearly to death there isn’t much time for serious study. The “chase” happens near the close of the picture, when Lloyd attempts to prevent a wedding. He uses everything from a train to a motorcycle, j Qpe of the funniest things he does is J when h? rides a motorcycle down into a ditch where men are w ,rking. The j effect is a scream. Another thrill is furnished when j two horses “fall” on Lloyd, but that t does not prevent him from continuing his wild ride. This picture is mostly j “business” and Lloyd's business at | that. The situations are really funny and the comedian's method of putting over the fun makes “Girl Shy” the real article in film fun. Will be asked if this is Lloyd’s greatest comedy. He has never been funnier and he provides more thrills than ever. I believe th it the public will decide that he has never done anything better “Girl Shy” is a fast affair. K is the three-ring circus of the movies. One laugh runs into another and the result is a convulsion. This picture is going to be the talk of the town. Just between us: It is my humble opinion that ’’Girl Shy” is by far the best thing LJpyd has done and that is saying a whole lot.

BERT LYTELL sheik dope. “Son of the Sahara” has a good cast, it has been given competent direction, expert photograptby and real stand, as some of the scenes were actually made in Algeria. You may not .enjoy lemon pie but I am wild about it. You wouldn't ruin my pleasure eating said pie and I am not going to ruin the day by throwing cold water all over your sheik if you like such stories. This picture does have thrills and will hold the interest of movie patrons who eujoy this brand of entertainment.

Save the Babies and You Save Indianapolis EVERY city exists for its children. Can you imagine yourself living in a town which did not? What a dreary place it would be! Even if you have no childish laughter in your own home, you love the sound of their voices on the street or else you go. They are the city’s hope. It may be a comfortable place for the. grown-ups, hut unless it is a wholesome and healthy place for the children, it ciflft Have no future. Last year, one oil every twelve children born in Indianapolis died before its first birthday. That is hotter than it used to he, and better than several other cities in America today. But if Indianapolis exerts greater eft'orts toward baby saving, we can at least have the first birthday party for nineteen of every' twenty the stork may bring. Why suffer this appalling loss due largely to community indifference? \ Let’s Be Careful of Child Life in Indianapolis The Indianapolis Water Company strives terdo its part.

' And that is just what happens when you see “Nellie, the Beautiful -Cloak Model.” The right sort of melodrama is pleasant fun. Most of us fall for' it when the “meller” is cleverly presented. Such names as Lew Cody (a wonderful villain), Claire Windsor. Mae Busch, Edmund Lowe and Hobart Bosworth in the cast is a guarantee that the acting is O.

Rev, Gunsoius Claims Celestial Heavens Is Most Glorified Place,
“The spirit world is divided -into seven spheres known as thrones, principalities, powers, dominions kingdom* and the like,” the Rev. Charles H. Gonsolus of the Spiritualist Church of Truth said Sunday night while preaching on “The Hierarchy of the Angel World.” “Each of these spheres,” he said, "are ruled over by archangels, seraphim, angels and spirits. The seventh sphere, known as the Celestial Heavens, is the most exalted and glorified place in the universe. “Here it is that Christ sits at the right hand throne of God. Here also are gathered the Seven Spirits of God. while in reality are the seven archangels and rulers of the universe archangels are represented by the seven golden candlesticks, and are referred to in the Book of Revelation as the Seven Angels of Judgment. The seven archangels are known as Michael, Gabriel, Raphail, Anael, Samael. Zadkiel ;i*hcl Cassiel. “Next to Jesus, Michael is the most powerful spirit In the heaven. It was j Michael that contended with the devil about the body of Moses and also fought and prevailed against the dragon. “Michael is king of the sun and j lightning and he gives light, truth and j faith to the world. Next in rank is : Gabriel. He is the archangel that j talked to Daniel, that predicted the j seventy weeks and that announced j the birth of John and Jesus. Gabriel’s home is in the moon and he is the dispenser of hope, dreams, aspirations ! and religion. “Next in power is Raphael, who is king of knowledge, culture and mysteries. His kingdom is on the planet 1 Mercury. The Archangel Anael is the ruler of jhe astral light and sends love and mercy throughout the universe. He is located on Venus. “Samuel is king of Mars and is the dispenser of strength and power. Zadkiel is ruler of the planet Jupiter and is the giver of- justice and judgment. Cassiel gives us temper,-oice and peace. He is located on Saturn. “These, in brief, the seven archangels. are the rulers of the seven inhabited planets and they obey the will of God," the Rev. Mr. Gunsoius said.
