EVERYBODYS’ PICTURES

TRAMP, TRAMP, TRAMP,” —TO-NIGHT.

llany Langdon exceeds expectations. Wo thought ho would be good. Now we know that he is great. He is as great n comedian as Charlie Chaplin and Harold Lloyd. " Tramp, Tramp, Tramp,” which had a premiere showing at the Princess Thearte to-night definitely establishes Langdon as top-noteber among film comedians. He is Ijeyond the shadow of a doubt as funny an actor as has ever been seen in the films. Larigdon’s humour is enigmatical. lie is the picture of innocence involved in ail sorts of complications. Very very funny indeed

“ Tramp Tramp, Tramp,” is an appropriate title for the story of a transcontinental hike. Harry’s peregrma tions take him all over the country and into all manner of difficulties. Tie is launched over a precipice, lie is set to work on a rock pile and ho is caught in a cyclone. Tlie cyclone episode is particularly stirring. It is said that the wind blew with such terrilie velocity that tlie cameramen who photographed the scene wore lashed to trees and posts to prevent being blown away. Beautiful Joan Crawford plays opposite the comedian. The rest of the highly ablo cast includes Tom Murray, Edwards Davis, Alec Francis and Brooks Benedict. Harry Edwards, who lias been associated with Langdon for some time, directed “ Tramp, Tramp, Tramp.” A. topical and comedy complete the dispi'av to-night. On Wednesday Tom Mix and Tony, the wonder horse, in “ The Rainbow Trail,” Zano Grey’s sequel to “ Riders of the Purple Sage.”
