MOVIE ADMISSION
MAY BE REDUCED
Moore Circuit Takes Step to Apply
New Method.

When David W. Griffith offered
The Birth Of a Nation to the mo
ton picture public at a g scale Of
prices many people gasped, then hIed
them promptly to the box-office win
dow and paid precisely these prices.
That was, at that time an extreme
case, but it merely served to ac-
centuate a condition that had been
growing gradually into contributory
cause Of the high cost Of living. The
admission prices for motion pictures
were going up.
When the admission was raised
from cents to a dime, it hurt; when
the dime was increased to Is cents,
it was considerd an outrage; when
the Is cents grew to be a quarter.
it was a cataclysm.
There should be a movement in the
opposite direction, made possible
by the application of modern busi-
ness methods to the conduct of an
industry that is LARGE enough apS old
enough to deserve sound business
principles in its daily life.
The First National Exhibitors
Circuit, as a member of which Tom
Moore. owner Of the Strand, Garden
and the building Rialto Theaters,
holds the franchise for Maryland.
Delaware and the District Of Colum-
bia. is working along lines that in due
time will mean much to the amuseT
ment seeker in the Capital. Mr..
Moore is insistent in his statement
that admission prices are coming
month by various producing organiza-
tions-based on observation during
the months Of October and November.
1911, totals eighty pictures purchased
during each four weeks at a negative
cost summing from $1,000 to $4,000
per feature. 1t is true that there are
few made as cheap as $4,000 and even
fewer that cost as much as $160. 200.
but $4,000 Is a fair average negative
cost. Thus is the picture industry
calling upon the exhibitor to absorb
twenty features a week at a cost each
OF $4,000. or $SOO.O00 In addition to
this cost of negatives there is to be
added the further cost OF positive
prints. An average of thirty positive
prints are used on each production.
Positive prints on a fiye-reel subject
at the present market cost $225-
Therefore the positive prints that
are being used would cost $3.50. and
twenty times $3.50 is S135.0OO.
How easy for a body of the fore
most exhibitors to organize in such
a way as to make it possible for them
to eliminate all of the intermediate
expenses of film marketing and
obtain their pictures directly from
the studio that makes them. IT
makes a saving of $4,000 a week.

The remarkable advance In the
character and quality of burlesque
performances Is said to be fittingly
illustrated in the entertainment Of
fered by Joe Hurtig's Bowery Bur-
lesquers which begins its weeks en-
gagement at the Gayety Theater to-
day. Two lively burlettas, bearing,
the titles, "A Day at Lobster Beach"
and "A Night in New York town."
serve as fitting vehicles for the dis
play of the organizations talent.
Frank Harcourt and Billy Foster.
two noted .funmakers Of original and
unctuous methods, are the featured
members, while Edna Green, a young
woman of charming ways. heads the
female contingent. Other members OF
the cast are: Pauline Paulli. Libby,
Hart. Grace Anderson. Eddie Akin,
Jack Hayden and Dave Solenger.
Then there's a chorus of twenty
young women-actual count, accord
ing to the management-who bear the
burden, or rather the joy, of no small
portion Of the entertainment, being
much in evidence in the many mu-
steal numbers and tuneful ensembles.
Vaudeville specialties are to be in
troduced incidentally by Akin, Hay
den and Melyer and Pauline Paulli.
Loew's Columbia-Geraldin Farrar.
Symbolic of the element OF supersti-
ton which is the hasic theme Of the
/ latest Geraldine Farrar photoplay,
THE Devil Stone" which will be the
feature at Loew's Columbia today and
continuing until Thursday, the vision
of a black cat appears at two striking
dramatic incidents in the play. At the
opening OF the story. Geraldine Far
rar appears as a simple Breton fisher
woman. Marcia Manot When q black
cat comes into her hut with the storm
1t brings with 1t a sudden thought Of
terror. implanted in the minds Of the
simple folk through ancient legends
and superstitious belief. Later in the
story. when Marcia, is in America, q
black cat Is the forerunner of the
episode in which she kills her miserly
husband in self-defense when he at
tempts to wrest from her the devil
stone, which was found after the
storm when the black cat first ap-
peared in Marcia's life.
Has the coming of a black cat any
significant Importance in governing the
events of the story? Those who are
supersttious will say that 1t has.
Those who scoff at superstition will
laugh at the possibility. You can Judge
for yourself by seeing the play.
Thursday and for the last half of the
week double bill Of photoplay feat
ures will be shown, embracing Sessue
Hayakawa in the Secret Came" a
story dealing with the international
crisis OF the present time, and Roscoe
(Fatty) Arbuckle in "A Country

laughable picture In which this rotund
comedian has yet appeared.
