AMUSEMENTS
LYCEUM AND TOWN HALL. Two delightful films filled with cyclonic action and stories of breathless interest are showing tonight at the above Theatres. “The Fighting Smile,” with Bill Cody, is a Western of unusual appeal, showing how a prodigal boy returns to his father’s ranch to find many difficulties to overcome, and how he eventually ‘wins through’ and smiles in the face of trouble. “The Craekorjaek, ” starring the inimitable Johnny Hines, in the role ot a ‘go-getter’ who brooks no obstacles to gain his ends, is a veritable tornado of laughs and thrills. It is by far the best picture Hines has made and is crammed with clever comedy. “Sally,” the picture version of the famous musical comedy, is showing at the Lyceum next Wednesday—Colleen Moore, the most vivacious screen artiste of the day, plays the title role; — the film is even better and funnier I than the play, because it includes the I famous street scenes and it is full of ‘ pep. ’ ’
