SUNDAY AT THE QUEEN'S.

ADULT AUDIENCES ASKED US TO GIVE AMERICA'S BOY STAR A PICTURE FOR ADULTS, TOO!

Not in all the history of motion pictures has there appeared a boy star with the genius of Jackle Cooper! You've seen him in pic- tures with a distinct appeal to younger people. He has been remarkable. Now you will see him in a picture which has a dramatic message for adults as well as young folles. His trials, his joys, his laughs are all of our own-as we know them in Life. And his superb victory over odds is our victory. The combing- tion of Jackie Cooper and "Chic" Sale in one picture was an Inspiration! Here is a real picture!

It is expected that one or two others may be able to manke the trip, but there is possibility that Hagenstein may not be able to travel on account of business. This will be a great loss to Shanghai, na his services are needed badly for the breast-stroke and back-stroke.
