Motion Pictures of New Character Will be
Presented in Style at the Murray Theatre

'If you are a bit blase on the
movie" question, think you have seen
them all and that they are all alike.
just prepare yourself for little shock
when you attend the Murray theatre
next Saturday when the new policy
gets under full sway. remarked w. H.
Hickey, under whose personal dfrec-
ton the Murray theatre will be con-
Quoted Wednesday.
Motion pictures are subject to much
criticism. and there can be no denying
that much of this is justified. 1t there
fore becomes necessary from time to
time to improve the manner of pre-
senting the silent drama to satisfy the
fans OF discriminating taste.
IN attending the Murray theatre on
and after next Saturday one may rest
assured that neither time nor money
has been spared to make the Murray
standard of entertainment" as near
perfect as possible. 1t is acknowf
edged everywhere that the Rialto and
| Strand theatres in New York. the Cir
Gle in indianapolis and the Majestic
and Madison theatres in Detroit. are
pre-eminent in the presentation of
high class motion pictures, enhanced
| by concert orchestras, special stage
settings, electrical effects and singers
of reputation.

| The plans for the reopening of the
Murray theatre OH Saturday call for
the conducting of this coy playhouse
on the same lines and offering the
same big attractions as shown in these
large cities. A more detailed announce
ment as to the new policy OF the Muir
ray will be made within a few days.
