IRIS THEATER NEWS

THE Trey O. Hearts,, which is
drawing to a close, has pleased more
of our patrons than any other serial
shown here. The last four INSTALL
ments are full of thrills, which you
don't want to miss.
We are making arrangements to
start another serial after furnishing
THE Trey o. Hearts, which is con-
sidered even better than the present
one.
Perhaps you have missed the IL
lustrated songs, and perhaps you
haven't. Some of our patrons en-
joyed them, while others do not care
for them. We have decided to "cut
out" the songs and put the money we
spent for songs into films, thereby
giving you four reels on each We'd
nesday and Friday nights, at the reg
ular price of 1Oc.
We belive the majority of our pa
irons go to the Iris to see the pic
lures, and not altogether for the mu-
sic. While everybody enjoys good
music (and we had the best of it's
kind during the past six months)
our business did not increase enough
to justify us in paying a high price
for music for only two hours work
each evening.
We have signed contract with
the Warmers Feature Co. to show
one of their features every Thurs
day, which are from three to FIVE
reels. These films cost consider able
more money than our regular serv-
ice, but we can show them for 1Oc
and 15c. Watch for the one for
next Thursday.
We have used films from all three
companies. AT first we showed the
Universal, than the Mutual, and dur
ing the past Is months the General
program, which our patrons wanted,
There are no better films produced
than those made by the General
Film Co., and in looking over their
advance notices, we can assure Won
that in the near future our program
will be better than ever.

BANK BOOK
FOR WIFE, DAUGHTER OR son

FOR WIFE, DAUGHTER OR son
there can be no more appropriate or
helpful remembrance than a pass
book showing an initial deposit,
starting an account in our bank-a
gift that can become growth for
good, productive of the good things
of life that all loved ones desire.
We take care of these accounts as
they should be cared for, giving the
new depositor clear and complete eX-
plantations of banking processes, and
lending all the personal encourage
ment toward accumulation that we
can, in addition to the regular in
ducements held forth by our savings
department.
Even the truest sentiment, with
out some occasional tangible dem
onstration, is apt to lose credit. The
establishment of an account in our
bank for anyone who is near and
dear, is practical manifestation, an
evidence unmistakable, of the most
enduring affection.
