GOOD COMEDY AT
LIBERTY LAST TIME
One of the strongest .and most de
lightful pictures in which Thomas
Meighan. the well known Paramount
star, has boon seen this season, is
‘FCappy Kicks," which was shown
with considerable success at the Lib
erty Theater last night. Mr. Meigh
an is seen as a seaman in the story
which la colorful, dramatic and at
times quite thrilling. It is a pictur
tzation of Peter D. Kyne’s stories of
the same title.
IJfatt Peasley, a sailor's mate, fulls
In love with Florrie, daughter of
Cappy nicks, owner of a fleet of
Yes sols, and the latter objects to the
match. The story' takes one to the
South Seas and every scene follow
ing the murder of Matt’s captain, his
thrashing of a burly Swede and his
triumphant return home to Florrie.
is filled with genuine drama. The
action is rapid and the love appeal
most charming. Agnes Ayres has
the leading feminine role, while
Charles Atho gives an artistic por
trayal of Cappy.
There is a terrible storm scene in
the last reel, which takes place Just
putside of the Golden Gate, near
Frisco.
This bill is on for the last time
