INTERESTING STORY OF UNDERWORLD ACTIYITIES. HENRY KENDALL AS A HERO. The story of "The Flying Fool," which' opens on Friday at the Majestic Theatre, eonoerns the tracking down of a gang of international crooks, by the world's most breeziest jhhump, who is, in reality, a keen-witted agent "of the Home Office.

His heroic struggles in the foul water, the chase back to England by air, the villain's tampering with the air controls which results in an aeroplane crashing into the Control Towdr and the final thrilling race between the hero in a Moth and the villain in a Bentley, which results in the latter crashing over ( the cliff at 70 miles per hour — these all provide one long continuous thrill. ! Henry Kendall as the Home Office ] agent is a most humorous and engag- ■ ing hero, and Wallace, Geoffrey, in his characterisation of the head gangster is a most suave and sinister villain.
