ANNUAL ATTENDANCE
OF Three BILLION AT
PICTURE THEATERS

William c. DeMille. the noted ORA
matist VINO wrote "Mafrens OF Vir-
ginia," "The Woman" and other plays
Tor David Belasco, is devoting HIM
self exclusively at present to writing
for the motion picture screen. He
has achieved signal success in this
field of literature. as he calls IT. He
declares that the great inspiration
which comes to writer's for motion pic
lures Is In the knowledge Of the size
of their great audience.
In the year 1915 there were rough
~ 1900, 100000 paid admissions to the
moving picture theaters OF the Unit
ed States said Mr. DeMiile recently
when he was interviewed at the stu
dos OF the L.asky company. This
means an average attendance of 20
times per year for every man, woman
and child in the country-or once a
week for half the population OF the
country. Figures like these imply q
great responsibility on the part of
those who supply this tremendous de-
mand, and men are now entering the
field who are by training and artistry
qualified to accept the responsibility.
las the new art of the photodrama
develops 1t will differentiate itself
more and more from the speakies' as
certain Jealous partizans call the older
art. During the past year the photo
play has been getting closer to the
spoken play in order to acquire GER
tain elements of dramatic construction,
but having acquired, and the photo
play OF the future win be even less like
the drama than the photoplay of the
past. The photoplay also is too big
to be dominated by a small group OF
men as the theater has been. In its
development it will reflect more truly
than the drama the ideals of the mass,
because the photodrama is not subject
to local opinion; it needs no Broad
way verdict, and is quite Independent
of the opinion of New York, the least
American OF any city in America"
