GRAND THEATRE. HAROLD LLOYD COMEDT. Last the Grand Theatre vaj parked to the door*, and judging by the continue' roars and shrieks which came from the huge audience, Harold Lloyd's Litest production waa surpassing all expectations. A small rural community is the background for most of the action arid laughs in the fun-film. Lloyd has never made two successive pictures rc-motelv alike, so . A fler his ias t big hit. "Why Worry*" v.hica was produced on a lavish scnle with mnuy hundreds of extras and massive sets he decided to turn to a simple, true-to-life story for his next rib wrecker. ■* n ' Shy'' Lloyd plays tho role of a small town tailor apprenticed to his uncle, who is bashful in the presence of the opposite sen, in fact, painfully so. It is said to be an ideal role for the .spectacled cornedian, and ho no doubt makes tho most of its mirth-producing opportunities, for Lloyd has never yet disappointed the world-wide army of his admirers. The locn'e of "Girl Shy" is for tho most part ?mali town, although towards the end of the picture the action is stajred in the City. Lloyd wilL introduce a real novelty to the screen in this picture, end he hss carefully guarded his secret hecauso it is his own idea and to have it known before tho showing of tho fun-film might rob it of some of its append Uwing to the heavy rush on this picture, patrons are advised to reserve scats immediately. The box plan for the week is open at The Bristol Piano Co.
