EMPRESS PICTURES, MANAIA.
' TO-MORROW—TUESDAY. i .__ Boiled down into the essence, it i»usually found that liking one's job,,. whatever it may be, is the key to substantial success. Therein is furnished the reason why Johnny (Torchy) Hines' initial feature, production "Burn 'Em Up. Barnes," which comes;to the Empress Picture Theatre, Manaia, to-morrow (Tuesday), is best fitted as a starring vehicle for this popular Btar. Johnny Hines' chief delight is te*act before a camera. But, next to that,. he likes a fast racing car and a moonlight journey at high speed to one of I the nearby coast resorts .or far out into j the Westchester Hills. His role in. , "Burn 'Em Up Barnes" is wholly fitting, since it is a whirlwind automobile racing story, and Johnny is itt • action all of the time. The story con- - cerns the experiences. of "Burn 'Emt Up Barnes," .the speed mad son of Whitney Barnes, millionaire namaia«.'turer of high-powered automobiles, whoby his complete indifference to er«rythiug save sensational road races incurs parental displeasure resulting m his abruptly leaving home to pr«Y«* that he can make his *own way in th* world without the aid of the Barnes *• name or millions. Patrons are aivise*. to be early.
