This revolutionary enterprise
which results from the recently
contaminated alliance Of the
DeMille Pictures Corporation,
Pathe Exchange, Inc, and Pro-
ducer's Distributing Corporation
with the Keith-Albee, Orpheum,
B. s. Moss and affiliated theater
circuits, will be headed by John
j. Murdoch, who is now general
manager Of the Keith.Albee in.
terests.
In number Of pictures and di-
versity of product the output of
this affiliation will exceed that
of any existing motion picture
company, and officials declare
that in point of revenue. it
should easily top any figures
heretofore attained in the bust
ness.
Examination of the perfected
plans reveals that this new enter.
prise is in unique and distinc-
tive position to supply every type
of entertainment essential to the
successful operation Of a motion
picture theater.
Cecil B. DeMille, with. his
firmly-established studio facilities,
will produce for 1928 release
40 feature pictures with the mum.
Der Of specials" and road show"
attractions quadrupled over last
years. There will be 26 regular
attractions, 10 specials" to be
made for long runs and ''two.a-
day. policies, and four ''road
shows" to be handled as has
been '"The King of Kings" At
least one Of the latter group will
be directed by DeMille.
Pathe's 1928 production sched-
ule calls for a total of $50 pic
lures, both short subjects and
features, including 104 Pathe
News issues, So releases of the
Pathe Review, So Topics of the

six 10-episode serials, 26 Grant

FILMS INVADE
LINBERLOST
REGION

Completing the first half OF one
of the most unusual location trips
in the history Of motion pictures,
Director Leo Meehan and an
F. B. o. company of 40 people
headed by Natalie Kingston and
orviIle Caldwell, co-stars, have
Just arrived in Rome City, Ind,
after a transcontinental trip from
the film capital. First scenes in
the picture have been taken.
The long journey was made for
the purpose of filming "The Har-
Vester," perhaps the most popular
of Gene Stratton-Porter's novels, on
the farm which was her home for
IL years, and which furnished the
locale for the entire book. The
property is situated in the woods
which border Sylvan Lake, in the
northern part of the State, and in
cludes the famous "Limberlost
Cabin" and other features which
have long been familiar to the
reading public.
IuEIuer AlSm OIL INTEREST IN the
filming of ''The Harvester" is the
fact that Leo Meehan, director of
the production, is the son-in-law of
the noted author. and himself lived
for a long time at the Limberlost
Cabin.
An entire hotel has been engaged
by the company on the lake shore
two miles distant from the farm,
and each morning the producing
unit travels to the location" by
fnotorboat. Besides Caldwell and
Miss Kingston, the cast includes
VIII r. Walling and Jay Hunt,
both well-known characters of the
Hollywood film colony.
