A CHARMING ROMANCE OF

YOUTH,

A picture with all the elementa of charming romance, delightini adventure, and youthful freshness, is Foss and Feathers," the entertain- ing Paramount feature showing at Kowloon Theatre this evening. A glimpse at the interesting story gives some small indication of the pleasure) this tale of a sudden change from life in a aback to the extravagance of affluence offers.

When Peter Baldwin atrikes it rich, after prospecting for gold all his life, he locks up the old shack and with Susie, his daughter, storis for San Fraurieco, where Martin Ledyard, a wealthy mining investor, gives him $200 000 for his find.

Expelled from college, Ledyard's 80 Robert returns home but is promptly cast forth by a stern parent to ear his own living or go hungry. Robert accepts the situa tion, but with the little money ho has, when he is ejected takes to drink.

Sne, anxious to become a lady, induces her father to engage plausible couple named Stanton t› teach manners and deportment. The new teachers are crooks. They are spalily jerted when the man in- sults old l'eter,

Stanton later meets Robert, gets | him drunk, and robs him. Lying by the roud, Robert is rescued by Susie. and taken to her home. Peter en gages the boy as Susie's etiquitte teacher and the young people fall in love. The Ledyards object, but an unexpected and startling incident changes their minds, Stanton incident. ally falling into police hands.

With Enid Bonnet a vivacious Susie and Douglas MacLean a boyish Robert, "Fuzes and Feathers "is

a picture most pleasing.
