COSY THEATRE.
TWO BIG ATTRACTIONS. Paramount’s “Toll of the Road,” showing at the Cosy Theatre to-night at 8, drives home a message to all car owners, 6ne of cautiousness and safety while driving in cities. This message is put in very entertaining and realistic form. The story deals with Frances Drake, a young, speedmad girl, of the modern generation, who has laughed off numerous traffic citations and has always believed it “couldn’t happen to her.” Miss Drake is riding with her brother, when the car crashes and kills a little boy. Because of her brother’s drunken condition, she takes the wheel and consequently is convicted of manslaughter and sentenced, to the penitentiary in a trial in which her sweetheart appears against her. Mary Boland and Charles Ruggles are teamed together for the tenth time in Paramount’s “Early to Bed,” the Second attraction, a farce dealing with the delayed honeymoon of a couple engaged twenty years.
