that the Hanan shoe we sell for $14

for heavier overhead expense carried

next year.
This move for independence by the
foremost artists Of the screen is the
most important and beneficial step
that has been taken in the motion pic.
ture business since it assumed its
leadership in the amusement field.
1t means for the motion picture pa
irons that Mary Pickford Charlie
Chaplain, Douglas Fairbanks and D.
w. Griffith will hereafter be enabled
to produce pictures in their own way.
They will make fewer pictures than
they have made before, and this in
itself will be an advantage. Hereto
fore they have been obliged to turn
out certain number of productions
within given period and consequent
ly have not always had the time to
perfect their work.
Thus, under the leadership of the
screens foremost artists is the per-
fection of motion picture entertain
ment in sight.
The first picture made under these
ideal conditions is "His Majesty, The
American" The management Of the
Auditorium Theatre feels great pride
in having secured this production for
it's city. The Auditorium has always
endeavored to choose its attractions
with discrimination and regardless of
expense. In the case of His Majes-
ty, the eAmerican," knowing what
Douglas Fairbanks film will be when
the inimitable Doug" can put his
best into it, the theatre management
feels and justly SO, that it will offer
to it's patrons what should prove to
be the very height of screen enter
tainment.
