THE TIMES-RECORDER.
I new Harold Lloyd comedy, ‘‘Dr.
I Jack,” released by the Pathe, which
■ will be shown at his theater Friday i
I and Saturday. Here is the poem,-
SOME DOCTOR! I ! ,
If you’re sick of this life I
With its toil and its strife,
I Remember that joy wil Icome back;
i Just watch for the day
i When the papers will say:
He’s arrived here at last—Dß.
JACK.
There are doctors in town,
Yes, and some 6f renown,
And others that you class as quack;
But the one full of pep,
Is the one vou should see—Dr.
JACK.
: If you walk with a crutch
And it hurts very much,
' To hike to the corner and back,
1 You’ll laugh and you’ll roar
As soon as you see—Dß. JACK..
If your boy, as a rule,
Wants’to stay home from school, ‘
-And you think he deserves a good
whack,
Just take it from me,
I You will learn when you see
How he’s cured by our friend—Dß.
JACK.
You’li laugh till you cry,
And you’ll wonder why
j That some folks a smile never crack,
If you know such a man,
It would be a good plan
To tell him to see—Dß. JACK.

Congregated on the outskirts of the
set»were all the twelve members of
the town.
‘‘Huh, thesfc motion picture fellows I
can’t really fight,” said the strong I
man sarcastically as he watched |
Acord from the corner <>f his eye.
“You got to show me oire of these
here western actors that could lick
me!” The chest swelled out conceit
edly and the trousers were hitched
up, as the small town idol started
away.
“Just a minute, young fellow,”
said Acord as he reached the man’s
side, “would you really like to see
f a western screen actor that could
lick you?”
Acord furnished the gloves. The
crowd gathered around expectantly.
Five minutes later the eleven other
citizens assisted their prize “strong

to a dead certainty.
But now that it’s definitely known
the Turks aren’t going to accept it,
everybody says carelessly, in effect:
“Oh, well, never mind, it'll ail be
fixed up satisfactorily, anyway.”
“How come? you ask.
