mium; but Charles Chaplin re
vives this historic custom in
"Pay Day", his latest comedy in
which he and his TOmpaniona en
gage In a tremulous rendition of
sentimental ballads outside the
doorof the pub. The sweet mu
sic continues long enough to
arouse the neighbors, but no long
er. Typical means are employed
to bring the melodies to an end
and a sudden downpour ot rain
complete the defeat of the mid
night rounders.
"Pay Day" is only two reels
long, but is said to be one of the
brightest gems of conedy that
Chaplin has ever given the screen.
"The Family Honor," a King
Vidor production with an all-star
cast, will be the feature at the
Bligh for Tuesday only.
Get a fine athlete and a dainty
girl together and it's a mighty
pleasing combination. Herbert
