CILVPLIN OX TT'ESDAY. Charlie Chaplin slrikes form in "Tlie Rink" (due at Farland's on Tuesday) with an excellent company surrounding him. Nothing for broad comedy could be expected to beyt a skating rink, and Charlie's wibbly-wobbly feet and solemn unwinking eye extract the last ounce of fun Everybody, even the most melancholy will find their eyes wet with hopeloss laughter when they come upon Charlie Chaplin in ''The Rink the last and best of his MutualChaplin comedies. The conclusion of T 'Tlie Rink" is in keeping with the laugh-making quality oi the whole production. Charlie calmly skates out of the link in to the road, hooks his everlasting walking stick to a travelling car and fades from the view o± his pursuers at somewhere near 100 miles per hour.
