“BRINGING UP FATHER” AT GRAND
The famous newspaper cartoons on “Bringing Up Father” have been made into a film and this is now being shown at the Grand Theatre. One amusing part of the story is where Jiggs makes his peace with his family when he promises them the sort of home they desire. They move to a grand place on Long Island. Ellen plans a party for her 18th birthday. Annie, not knowing of the; party bakes a cake for the girl and personally delivers it. Maggie pushes Annie from the house and slams the door in her face. Annie discovers Jiggs hiding in the grounds with a gun in his hand. He had not been wanted at the party and had been told by Maggie that both she and Ellen were thoroughly ashamed of him. This had so saddened him that he wanted to kill himself. Annie prevents the tragedy by turning the gun so that the shot goes wild. Farrell McDonald and Polly Moran are the stars.
