In The Land of Make Believe

With booking conditions made uncer-

theatrical owners are compelled to meet
at the hands OF the railroads at the pres
ent time, the amusement future OF many
communities is in doubt Not so with

into the situation is the refusal OF many
well known stars TO take to the road.
