SURELY HARD MAN TO PLEASE

Managing Editor Would Not
Be Satisfied.

An artist was drawing a cartoon
wherein the flag of our nation played
large part. He drew the flag. first

and took It to the managing editor,
who promptly let out yelp.
''Wadye think this country is," said
the managing editor. "a trust7"
Whats the trouble?" asked the
artist.

editor, why. we need more stars,

So the artist brought the picture

The managing editor felt his head

This is story Of how a comfortable
little fortune was spent In three weeks:
It wasn't squRndered. and in its way
that fortune put potential wealth into
thu hands of more than $4,000 per
soma in Chicago.
To begin at the beginning: When
the third Chicago Land Show was be-
ing planned the Union and Southern
Pacific railroad companies began to
plan also how they could attract their
share OF the hundreds Of thousands
that would visit the show, to their ter
ritory. Many things were discussed.
the drst being the idea Of booths in
which to display the products grown
along the lines Of the RAILROADS.
THAT won't do" said Gerritt Fort
and Charles g. Zee, passenger traf1c
managers of the Union and Southern
Pacific railroads. We've got to have
something different this year. Last
year We showed what our farmers
can do. This year we want to show
what all Of US can do"
Plan to Spend 4 Fortune.
And right there began the plans
for spending this fortune. After doz-
On different suggestions had been
thrashed out there was evolved the
one used, that Of having two moving
picture palaces built into the Coliseum
II Chicago and there showing stereop-
ucon and moving pictures not only Of
farm life but OF town and city life
along the Union and Southern Pacific
lines.
Twenty thousand dollars was the
sum decided upon as necessary to
make the display. The space at the
Coliseum that was allotted to the rail
roads was put in the hands Of NOV

tired from the sights they had seen
and the hard floor they had tramped.
They sank down into our comfortable
floor. and Just listened. Then when the
lights were lowered and the beautiful
ly colored stereopticon pictures were
thrown on the screen, their eyes were
rested by the soft colors OF the flow
ers. the waving grain and the hand
some homes shown them. In the mo-
tion pictures they were shown the
methods Of farming. the scenic won
ders of our lines, and the many cit
les which we reach. Altogether, be-
lieve that we reached the people in
this way better than we could in any
other"
Thousands Get Literature.
As the throngs passed from the the
aters after each lecture they were sent
out through the front of the rooms,
into wide hallway between the audi
toriums. On one side of this hallway
was a long counter where literature
descriptive of the Union-Southern Pa
cific territory was handed them and
tens Of thousands also registered their
names and addresses. These will be
turned over to the communities In the
railroads territory for their benefit in
order that they may get into direct
touch with persons seeking new
homes.
The cost Of space, fitting up and op.
/, Grating the two theaters was heavy
one and at the end of the % davs nj
the exposition the men behind the ex.
hibit discovered that their little for.
tune Of $4,000 had been spent.
With the close of the land show
workmen tore out all the handsome
paintings. and the chairs and other
comfortable fittings. and within few
hours nothing was left except that
which the railroad men wanted-the

picture houses-and he was told to go
ahead and build two of the best ones
he ever planned.
The result more than repaid the plan
ners. When the theaters were turned
over to the railroads they were fully
up to expectations. The entrances to
foyer of the two was from the main
body of the Coliseum and the two wide
doorways were brilliantly lighted with
electric signs. The foyer ran the full
length OF the Coliseum Annex and was
wide. Under foot was soft carpet.
and on the walls were scenes Of farm
and home life in the west
Theaters Are Resting Place.
The theaters themselves also were
reached by two broad doorways each.
Inside they were carpeted and fitted
with comfortable wide armed opera
chairs that furnished the grateful rest
ing place to the thousands that had
been Cooking around in the big Coli
scum and standing about on the con-
crete floors until their feet ached. The
walls Of the theaters also were COW
cred with paintings Of western scenes.
In addition to the farm scenes were
views of several of the immense irri-
CATION projects. and number Of the
scenic wonders Of the world.
The cages" for the moving picture
operators we're fireproof, SO that in
case Of accident no fame could reach
out into the body of the house. The
ceilings Of the two halls were beamed
and paneled and the interior decora-
tions were equal to those of any thea
ter in Chicago. In the front of each
room was the platform on which the
lecturers stood. and to the left Of this
was the screen on which the pictures
were thrown. This was one huge sheet
without seam to mark or mar It, and
tho reflections cast were as clear as It
was possible to make them.
