The museum is crowded with sight-seers listening to a barker dilate on the abnormali- ties of the various freaks, when the shot is fired — which terrifies all the spectators. Who is the unseen assassin? — suspicion rests upon everyone, even to the Police Commissioner himself.

How John Harron, the newspaper reporter and Phyllis Barrington, the Commissioner's niece, follow a winding train of clues, while the detectives are at fault; how the identity of the real killer is cleverly concealed; and how the whole affair terminates in a wildly surprising climax is set forth in dramatic fashion.

So "Wings" heads for the great West — and when he arrives in the cattle country, "Paradise Valley" — he walks right into a lot of trouble. The ranchers are looking for a desperado who has been killing their sheep — "Wings" being a stranger and unknown to the ranch- ers, their suspicions immediately center on him. The radio star is even accused of murder — he is on the point of being lynched — but of all strange Westerns his abil- ity to sing at the crucial moment saves him from the noose.

The men of the posse are none other than the famous Beverly Hill Billies — and "Wings" having had enough of adventure takes the posse back to New York with him where he and "his singers of the sage" become the new radio sensation.

GENERAL INFORMATION ON RENTING

Each feature has been built into a complete program, running from 1^ to 2 hours in length, by the addition of short subjects — comedies, cartoons, travelogues, sports and novelties — mounted permanently on two 1600 foot reels.

Gaumont-British and Universal features can- not be used in locations that are competitive with theatres. Bookings must be approved by Gau- mont-British or Universal before we can accept them.

Bookings on both the programs and the sepa- rate short subjects may be made as far in advance as desired. However, we cannot make changes in the short subjects that are mounted with fea- tures; programs must be taken in their entirety. Short subjects that are listed separately will be mounted on big reels in the order specified. When ordering it is advisable to name two or three alternate selections to be sure that you get something desired in case the original selection is not available.

There is no surcharge for time lost in transit. Shipping charges both ways must be paid by the customer. Return shipment must be made promptly on the day folloiuing the scheduled showing. Please do not rewind the films after pro- jection.

ATTENTION - CARE OF FILM

Sound Film is very delicate material and its successful projection depends on your careful handling.

A silent projector cannot be used for sound films under any conditions.

The breaking of the film is not a serious mat- ter if taken care of properly. Stop the machine at once and rethread the remaining part of the film. Do not repair broken film ; the splicing will be done at the Library. Return all damaged parts of the film.

Your own reels should be straight and in per- fect condition before using our film on them.

32

If your projector is not kept clean you are bound to have trouble. The whole mechanism is extremely delicate, — the smallest particle of dust on the sound track or the least scratch on the emulsion will distort the sound.

Moral— KEEP THE FILM CHANNEL CLEAN.
