Purifying the Cheap Stage.
n the Woman's Home Companion

From the Woman's Home Companion.
When Mr.. B. F. Keith, in 1908, had
come to the conclusion that the cheap
moving-picture show could be made
both clean and profitable, he tested his
theory by opening the Bijou Dream in
Boston, with Mrs. Josephine Clement.
Brookline social leader and wife of a
former editor of the Boston Transcript, as
free and unfettered manager. His only
stipulations were that moving pictures
should be the main feature of the enter
tainment, and that the price Of admission
should remain 10 cents.
Now, after four years, students of the
cheap entertainment problem from all
over the United States are ready to testify
to the excellence and educational value
of the performances at the Bijou Dream.
while as to the very essential matter of
financial success Mrs. Clement says,
There are five shows a day, and it is rare
indeed that at least three out of those
