Buster Keaton, the master funmaker of the screen,
in a bright new comedy. As a wealthy Americano, he

the luxurious night club run by Gonzales, who sees a
rich source of profit in Leander Proudfoot.
Lupita, the beauty of the place, devotes herself so
successfully to entertaining Leander — Gonzales grows
madly jealous. Can you imagine Buster as a troubador
of the night, strumming the light guitar! He becomes
involved in a series of mad adventures in his amorous
pursuit of Lupita — but he emerges victoriously from all
his scraps and rides off triumphantly to his yacht with
his sweetheart.

PARADISE VALLEY Imperial
"Wings" Bonners, a radio crooner, develops a dread
disease called "over-conceit" — he loses his place on the
radio program because he only appears for his broad-
cast when the notion strikes him. The crooner believ-
ing that if he left town his sponsors would realize their
great loss and recall him.
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.

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.

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.
