' A scene from “Why Worry?” Harold Lloyd’s new feature comedy playing at the Rylander on Thursday and Friday. “WHY WORRY?’ AIMS HIGHER THAN PREVIOUS LLOYD COMEDY SUCCESSES How c: ii Harold Lloyd keep up the pace? That is a question that has puz zled people inside the motion pic ture industry as well as the mil lions of followers Lloyd has won by , bis clean, wholesome comedy on the screen. Yet he does. He followed “A Sailor-Made-Man’"’ with a great pictui'e in “Grandma’s Boy.” He maintained the pace with “Dr. Jack' and with “Safety Last” he hit a notch which many felt it would be impossible for him to hit again. Nevi rthless, he has in “Wi.y Worry?” a six reel comedy which' will be shown at the Rylander Theatre on Thursday ;nd Friday that he can not set a pace too fast for himself. The picture was actu ally seven months in production. He ' started it in December and the fin ishing touches were not put on it until June, or just before Harold and his young bride, Mildred Davis ■ loft, for New York on their delayed i honeymoon. •, All the dentists in the world never got as many laughs out of j pulling a tooth as Lloyd does in this comedy. John Aasen, the eight foot nine giant, who plays in the picture", is the comedian’s tooth pulling ;rid there is a laugh in sdqutftiee for every foot, ol the giant’s great body. This, episode must be seen to be appro J 'dated, for in the places where the, picture has been shown, audiences were convlused by it. If is doubtful it the’average hu man beng could stand the severe test to .which Aaten was put while losing a troublesome molar, yet it was a minor event for this great bulk of humanity wfyotweighs close' to .>OO pounds. This sequence N a high light., of “Why Worry?,” for it establishes the giant as Lloyd's friend and makes him an impotv tant factor in the revolutionary ■cenes which follow.
