“THE PALM BEACH GIRL’’ Hundreds of disappointed patrons were unable to gain admission at the Palace on Saturday night when the most thrilling speed boat race ever seen was presented with Be be Daniels providing all the thrills. Bebe Daniels has the most thrilling and exciting time of her career in “The Palm Beach Girl”. Bebe Daniels is one ok the most popular of stars, her lively characterisations, her beauty and charm are very much in evidence, and every minute there is something doing. Just imagine Miss Daniels as a gawky country girl trying to learn the manners and mannerisms of the smart set, falling in love with a handsome millionaire, adventuring with bootleggers and running wild in a 60-mile-an-hour speed boat, and one can realise the hilarious fun and hysterical thrills in this picture. The story was adapted from the- yarn by Byron Morgan, author of the famous speed stories. In the story Bebe Daniels meets a wealthy young man, Jack Trotter, when fleeing from her maiden aunts. Trotter’s fortune is invested in a 'coming speed boat race Miss Daniels is to christen the boat., but makes many mistakes. She is chased by the sheriff, who thinks she lias assisted some bootleggers to escape, whereas they made her stay in the boat till they made their escape. Tilt-ill follows thrill, as she reaches the scene of the boat race, 'the mechanic is lost overboard, and Miss Daniels keeps the boat in the race, finally winning. Then having won it, she cannot stop the boat. Tho climax is the most tlirilling and exciting you’ve ever seen.
