"Cat's Paw" To-night.

HAROLD LLOYD'S LATEST. KING'S TO-NIGHT AND TO-MORROW. Harold Lloyd abandons the adolescent role and the stunts Avhich helped him to stardom, and appears as an unexpectedly different actor in "The Cat's Paw," his first appearance in two years, screening tonight and to-morrow evening, and one which film audiences will not be prone to forget nor tire of so easily. Not only is Lloyd seen in a new role, but in "Cat's Paw" he is surrounded by a sterling cast, including pretty Una Merkel, Alan Dinehart, Grant Mitchell and Grace Bradley, Nat Pendleton and Warren Hymer.

The new type of role provides Harold Lloyd with a character of a missionary's son who is taken to China as a little boy. There ho grows up in the dreamy traditions of the township of Cheng-tu and the philosophical sayings of the late Ling Po. Attaining manhood, and none but Chinese girls available as future mates, the young man is returned to America, with instructions to find a wife! What happens to him when he arrives and is hurled into the fury of a helter-skelter American city and courtship, provides delightfully wholesome comedy.
