H-HAT the campaign Of national ad-
vertising in which the Famous
= Fayers-Lasky Corporation is
spending a million dollars year is a
complete success, SURPRISING all ex-
pectations Of the officials OF the com,
pany, is the unreserved opinion of
Walter E. Greene, vice president and
managing director in charge OF dis
tribution.
II this national advertising had not
added a penny to our net revenue"
said Mr.. Greene, I'VE would still be
more than satisfied with its results.
We have only to consider the rise Of
the motion picture in the estimation of
the public during the past two years
and the elevation of the standing of
the motion picture exhibitor in his
community, and to know that this prog
ress has been contemporaneou with
our campaign to sell TO the public a
desire for motion pictures ard better
motion pictures.
THE fact that we have Paramount
and AIRCRAFT pictures 10 sell. and ad.
vertise that fact. is subordinated in all
our magazine copy to the big idea OF
selling pictures and better pictures to
the public. Moreover. so positive are
we that our national advertising has
been one OF the biggest factors in
bringing the motion picture theatre
every theatre of the better class,
whether IT shows Paramount and Art
craft pictures or not-into better re-
pute, and in bringing more of the bet
ter class Of people to see motion pic
lures, that we have decided to continue
the policy indefinitely"

This is the question Harrisburgers

that several new Federal taxes go
